Sihler (1995:253, 285) finds it odd that the ablative and locative cases fell together in Latin, since their meanings are nearly opposite, place-fromwhich and place-in-which. But they did fall together, and the instrumental case joined them, as the Sanskrit-like eight-case system of late Indo-European developed into the six-case system of Latin. The syncretism was not phonologically or morpholo...

This paper investigates the division of labor between two reciprocal forms in Finnish, namely the one-word form and the doubled form (ex.1). The research presented here builds on the analysis I presented in Kaiser (to appear) hypothesizing that the doubled form increases the salience of certain interpretational possibilities, resulting in the doubled form having less tolerance for exceptions th...

Leff has concluded from his analysis of the JPSS Study that the emotions of anxiety, depression and irritability are poorly discriminated amongst the population using non-Indo-European languages. The present author after analyzing similar data from the ICMR Multicentred Collaborative Study of Factors Associated with the Course and outcome of Schizophrenia that the Tamil population using Tamil, ...

This chapter introduces word segmentation methods for Indo-China languages. It describes six different word segmentation methods developed for the Thai, Vietnamese, and Myanmar languages and compare different approaches in terms of their algorithms and results achieved. The discussion and comparison of these word segmentation methods will provide underlying views about how word segmentation can...

Indomethacin (INDO) demonstrates therapeutic efficacy in the treatment of neuroinflammatory diseases. Despite its importance as a drug, INDO causes gastrointestinal problems and adverse reactions central nervous system (CNS). In this study, we prepared nanoparticles layered double hydroxide (LDH) loaded with INDO. The structure nanohybrid (LDH-INDO) was synthesized via coprecipitation method, c...

A lexical knowledge base is an important component of any intelligent information processing system. The WordNet developed at the Cognitive Systems Laboratories at Princeton has served as a lexical reference system for natural language processing activities. The Indian language based activities at our institute mainly in text-to-speech synthesis and natural language generation from iconic input...

While Greek is rich in compounds, one familiar type from Indo-European, namely dvandva compounds meaning 'X and Y', is essentially nonexistent in Ancient Greek. However, such compounds start occurring in post-Classical Greek and are fairly productive by early Modern Greek. The innovative dvandvas involve nouns, a type well attested elsewhere in Indo-European, but also verbs, such as aniγo-klino...

We study the persistent homology of the data set of syntactic parameters of the world languages. We show that, while homology generators behave erratically over the whole data set, non-trivial persistent homology appears when one restricts to specific language families. Different families exhibit different persistent homology. We focus on the cases of the Indo-European and the Niger-Congo famil...
