The study employs three different operationalisations of the degree of semantic cohesion of the causing and caused events, which are based on English and cross-linguistic data. ...
The idea of isomorphism of form and meaning has played an important role in functionalist theories of syntax and morphology. ...
Two of these variables are language-internal and one is cross-linguistic. The first language-internal variable is based on a semantic classification of causation events. ...

Quechua speakers often omit arguments, and a great deal of information is encoded in suffixes that are added to verb roots, as illustrated in (1) . ...
In Quechua sentences with explicit arguments, word order is very flexible so that word order is not a cue to the identity of external and internal arguments. ...
None of these forms presents morphosyntactic cues that would help a child zoom in on the transitivity status of the verb root itself. Children must have to rely on a semantic-conceptual strategy. ...

As an alternative to this "one task, one model" approach, the Distributional Memory framework extracts distributional information once and for all from the corpus, in the form of a set of weighted word-link-word ...
Different matrices are then generated from the tensor, and their rows and columns constitute natural spaces to deal with different semantic problems. ...
The measure can also be interpreted as the dominant term of average MI or as a heuristic variant of pointwise MI to avoid its bias towards overestimating the significance of low frequency events, and it ...
