2. English grammar - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_grammar

   The first published English grammar was a Pamphlet for Grammar of 1586, written by William Bullokar with the stated goal of demonstrating that English was just as rule-based as Latin. Bullokar's grammar was faithfully modeled on William Lily's Latin grammar, Rudimenta Grammatices (1534), used in English schools at that time, having been ...

3. Terminal and nonterminal symbols - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terminal_and_nonterminal...

   Terminal symbols are symbols that may appear in the outputs of the production rules of a formal grammar and which cannot be changed using the rules of the grammar. Applying the rules recursively to a source string of symbols will usually terminate in a final output string consisting only of terminal symbols. Consider a grammar defined by two rules.

4. Numeral (linguistics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numeral_(linguistics)

   In English grammar, the classification "numeral" (viewed as a part of speech) is reserved for those words which have distinct grammatical behavior: when a numeral modifies a noun, it may replace the article: the/some dogs played in the park → twelve dogs played in the park.

   As an example, −6 + 4 = −2; because −6 and 4 have different signs, their absolute values are subtracted, and since the absolute value of the negative term is larger, the answer is negative. Although this definition can be useful for concrete problems, the number of cases to consider complicates proofs unnecessarily.

6. Article (grammar) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Article_(grammar)

   Indefinite articles typically arise from adjectives meaning one. For example, the indefinite articles in the Romance languages—e.g., un, una, une—derive from the Latin adjective unus. Partitive articles, however, derive from Vulgar Latin de illo, meaning (some) of the. The English indefinite article an is derived from the same root as one.

7. Carry (arithmetic) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carry_(arithmetic)

   The same carry bit is also generally used to indicate borrows in subtraction, though the bit's meaning is inverted due to the effects of two's complement arithmetic. Normally, a carry bit value of "1" signifies that an addition overflowed the ALU , and must be accounted for when adding data words of lengths greater than that of the CPU.
