Derivatives based on participles in Irish and Polish and the inflection–derivation distinction by Maria Bloch-Trojnar

“…The paper addresses the theoretical ramifications of the existence of such derivatives for inferential-realisational approaches (Stump 2001), such as for example Beard’s (1995) Lexeme-Morpheme Base Morphology, which separates the operations on the grammatical (morpholexical and morphosyntactic) features and operations responsible for the morphophonological modification of the root/stem. …”

Corpus-Based Reflective Practice for Professional Development: A Collaborative Micro Auto-Ethnography by Olcay Sert, Elisabeth Wulff Sahlén, Thorsten Schröter

We argue that there should be institutional support for developing new corpus-based professional development initiatives and that researchers can benefit from using ethnographic data together with detailed analyses of interactions.…”

From the pseudo-cleft to the the-N-is construction in spoken English: the birth of a new paradigm by Florine Berthe

“…A study of the pseudo-cleft in spoken English shows that the construction differs significantly from the cleft construction and that it should be analysed alongside markers such as the thing is or other variants of this lexico-grammatical pattern. This article puts forward three linguistic properties shared by the two constructions which demonstrate the need for a simultaneous study of the pseudo-cleft construction and the the-N-is construction in spoken English. …”

Information Compression as a Unifying Principle in Human Learning, Perception, and Cognition by J. Gerard Wolff

“…Evidence includes the following: information compression can mean selective advantage for any creature; the storage and utilisation of the relatively enormous quantities of sensory information would be made easier if the redundancy of incoming information was to be reduced; content words in natural languages, with their meanings, may be seen as ICMUP; other techniques for compression of information—such as class-inclusion hierarchies, schema-plus-correction, run-length coding, and part-whole hierarchies—may be seen in psychological phenomena; ICMUP may be seen in how we merge multiple views to make one, in recognition, in binocular vision, in how we can abstract object concepts via motion, in adaptation of sensory units in the eye of Limulus, the horseshoe crab, and in other examples of adaptation; the discovery of the segmental structure of language (words and phrases), grammatical inference, and the correction of over- and undergeneralisations in learning may be understood in terms of ICMUP; information compression may be seen in the perceptual constancies; there is indirect evidence for ICMUP in human cognition via kinds of redundancy such as the decimal expansion of π which are difficult for people to detect; much of the structure and workings of mathematics—an aid to human thinking—may be understood in terms of ICMUP; and there is additional evidence via the SP Theory of Intelligence and its realisation in the SP Computer Model. …”
