Sentence Meaning according to a Given Text

چکیده
The meaning of a text can be generated by the composition of the meanings of all its units. The sentence meaning is not enough in itself and cannot be taken separately from the text context, it is a function of the text where this sentence appears. We propose below an approach which gives an account for this semantic phenomena. It is based on the minimal units of meaning following Harris’s grammar, and the correlation of these units for a given text through the question/answer relations formalized by the set-of-answers reduction methodology stemming from the logic of questions.
