This paper defines and exemplifies the "grammar of the reader." It is claimed that existing pedagogical grammars, although supposedly neutral with respect to skills, are actually biased towards production. In translating rules into the reader's perspective, reader's grammar turns them inside out. Reader's grammar does not primarily focus on rules…

RESEARCH IN SYNTACTIC ANALYSIS OF RUSSIAN, WHICH WAS DEVELOPED IN A PROGRAM FOR COMPUTER-AIDED RUSSIAN-ENGLISH TRANSLATION, IS DESCRIBED. THE CORPUS CONSISTED OF 15 RUSSIAN MATHEMATICAL ARTICLES. THE THEORY USED IS THE "FULCRUM" APPROACH OF BUNKER-RAMO, BUT THE COMPUTER IMPLEMENTATION HAS DEVELOPED ALONG DISTINCT LINES. THREE TYPES OF…

THE PAPER ANALYZES, FROM THE GENERAL POINT OF VIEW OF TRANSFORMATIONAL THEORY, THE GRAMMAR OF INTERROGATIVE SENTENCES IN AMERICAN ENGLISH AND MANDARIN CHINESE. SEVERAL TYPES OF QUESTIONS ARE RECOGNIZED IN EACH. BOTH LANGUAGES HAVE INTERROGATIVE-WORD QUESTIONS, DISJUNCTIVE QUESTIONS, TAG QUESTIONS, AND NEGATIVE QUESTIONS. "YES-NO"…

THIS PAPER DISCUSSES THE HINDI LANGUAGE SYNTAX OF PERFECTIVE PARTICIPIAL FORMS AS ADJECTIVES AND AS PARTICIPLES OF SEVERAL VARIETIES. THE FIRST PART OF THE REPORT DISTINGUISHES AND DESCRIBES EIGHT KINDS OF PARTICIPIAL USAGE AND SUGGESTS MORE GENERAL RULES FOR ANALYZING THESE USES. THE SECOND PART OFFERS A GENERATIVE DESCRIPTION OF THE SAME DATA.…

This paper is a study in the grammar of coreference. A wide variety of evidence is presented which shows that the distribution of nominal expressions in English sentences if subject to previously unsuspected constraints involving coreference.

For the purposes of the study zero (0) and unstressed "some" are considered as articles as well as…

An algorithmic language (ALGAMS) was proposed by the group on programing automation for medium type machines. The language is a subset of ALGOL-60. The paper discusses the syntax and semantics of ALGAMS. (Author/GO)

A pseudo assembly language, PAL, was developed and specified for use as the lowest level in a general, multilevel programing system for the realization of cost-effective, hardware-independent Naval software. The language was developed as part of the system called FIRMS (Fast Iterative Recursive Macro System) and is sufficiently general to allow…
