Lexical Preactivation in Basic Linguistic Phrases
Many previous studies have shown that predictable words are read faster and lead to reduced neural activation, consistent with a model of reading in which words are activated in advance of being encountered. The nature of such preactivation, however, has typically been studied indirectly through its subsequent effect on word recognition. Here, we use magnetoencephalography to study the dynamics...
متن کاملPredicting language: MEG evidence for lexical preactivation.
It is widely assumed that prediction plays a substantial role in language processing. However, despite numerous studies demonstrating that contextual information facilitates both syntactic and lexical-semantic processing, there exists no direct evidence pertaining to the neural correlates of the prediction process itself. Using magnetoencephalography (MEG), this study found that brain activity ...
متن کاملLexical Choice for Complex Noun Phrases
This paper presents a lexical choice component for complex noun phrases. We rst explain why lexical choice for NPs deserves special attention within the standard pipeline architecture for a generator. The task of the lexical chooser for NPs is more complex than for clauses because the syntax of NPs is less understood than for clauses, and therefore, syntactic realization components, while they ...
متن کاملLexical Structures For Linguistic Inference
In order to resolve metonymy and other violations of selectional restrictions between lexical items, a language understander must be able to infer relationships that do not have explicit lexical analogs in tile sentence. Although such inferencing has typically been relegated to the world knowledge portion of a natural language processing system, there is also evidence, from both theoretical ana...
متن کاملLexical Cohesion in Linguistic and Musical Discourse
An analogy is presented between music and linguistic discourse in terms of lexical cohesion. Linguistic discourse and music are two different manifestations of human communication. They are both meaningful and coherent, and both are processes inherently temporal. Lexical cohesion is a semantic relation manifested in the lexical level of language. A short sample of discourse is analysed and comp...
