  2. Case role - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Case_role

    The relationships between nouns and their containing structures are of both syntactic and semantic value. The syntactic positional relationships between forms in sentences vary cross-linguistically and allows grammarians to observe semantic values in these nouns by examining their syntactic values. Using these semantic values gives the base for ...

  3. Thematic relation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thematic_relation

    Since their introduction in the mid-1960s by Jeffrey Gruber and Charles Fillmore, [2] [3] semantic roles have been a core linguistic concept and ground of debate between linguist approaches, because of their potential in explaining the relationship between syntax and semantics (also known as the syntax-semantics interface), [3] that is how ...

  4. Meronymy and holonymy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meronymy_and_holonymy

    In linguistics, meronymy (from Ancient Greek μέρος (méros) 'part' and ὄνυμα (ónuma) 'name') is a semantic relation between a meronym denoting a part and a holonym denoting a whole. In simpler terms, a meronym is in a part-of relationship with its holonym. For example, finger is a meronym of hand, which is its holonym.

  5. Link grammar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Link_grammar

    AbiWord, [30] a free word processor, uses link grammar for on-the-fly grammar checking. Words that cannot be linked anywhere are underlined in green. The semantic relationship extractor RelEx, [37] layered on top of the link grammar library, generates a dependency grammar output by making explicit the semantic relationships between words in a ...

  6. Hypernymy and hyponymy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypernymy_and_hyponymy

    In linguistics, semantics, general semantics, and ontologies, hyponymy (from Ancient Greek ὑπό (hupó) 'under' and ὄνυμα (ónuma) 'name') shows the relationship between a generic term (hypernym) and a specific instance of it (hyponym). A hyponym is a word or phrase whose semantic field is more specific than its hypernym.

  7. Syntax–semantics interface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syntax–Semantics_Interface

    Before the 1950s, there was no discussion of a syntax–semantics interface in American linguistics, since neither syntax nor semantics was an active area of research. [17] This neglect was due in part to the influence of logical positivism and behaviorism in psychology, that viewed hypotheses about linguistic meaning as untestable.

  8. Lexical chain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lexical_chain

    As long as there is a semantic relation that connects two or more words, they should be combined into a unique concept. The semantic relationship is obtained through WordNet, which works a ground truth to indicate which lexical structure connects two words (e.g., hypernyms, hyponyms, meronyms). If a word without any semantic affinity with the ...

  9. Semantic network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semantic_network

    Words with higher similarity scores are more closely related, thus have higher probability of being a close word in the semantic network. These relationships can be suggested into the brain through priming, where previous examples of the same relationship are shown before the target word is shown. The effect of priming on a semantic network ...
