Syntax over focus
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper compares three factors affecting prosodic phrasing in Korean: syntax, focus and speech rate. The Syntax and Focus constraints have been claimed to be stronger than the Speech Rate constraint, but it is not known which of these -the syntactic constraint (SYNTAX) or the focus constraint (FOCUS) – is stronger. Based on production and perception data, it is found that SYNTAX is stronger than FOCUS, both at normal and fast speech rates, though less so at fast rate.

متن کاملRepresenting Focus Scoping over New
1. Syntax of focus Example (1) illustrates the locus/scope/antecedent syntax for focus. Focused phrases are marked with a feature F (Jackendoff 1972). The operator ∼k marks the scope of F (Rooth 1992), and index k marks an antecedent in the syntax or discourse representation with respect to which the scope of the focus is partially redundant. Redundancy is characterized semantically either in t...
متن کاملThe application and development of graph theory through the space syntax method: The implementation of analytical practical model in architecture
Abstract Over the last few decades, different mathematical methods have been used to design and analyze architectural spaces. Meanwhile, the graph theory provides an abstract model to study the spatial configuration, so that a simple and flexible mathematical framework is obtained to analyze the spatial topological features and their relationship with social and functional concepts in architec...
متن کاملWhat about word meaning if syntax is the only generative component of languages?
• Syntactic approaches to word formation erase the distinction between that component of languages which is responsible for the formation of words – the generative lexicon – and that component which is responsible for the formation of sentences – the syntax. • Since syntax as an independent module is needed anway, for reasons of minimal design of the human language faculty and ontological parsi...
متن کاملSyntax-Directed Attention for Neural Machine Translation
Attention mechanism, including global attention and local attention, plays a key role in neural machine translation (NMT). Global attention attends to all source words for word prediction. In comparison, local attention selectively looks at fixed-window source words. However, alignment weights for the current target word often decrease to the left and right by linear distance centering on the a...
