Grammatical cues are largely, but not completely, redundant with word meanings in natural language ...
|

Abstract:
The combinatorial power of language has historically been argued to be enabled by syntax: rules that allow words to combine hierarchically to convey complex meanings. But how important are these rules in practice? We performed a broad-coverage cross-linguistic investigation of the importance of grammatical cues for interpretation. First, English and Russian speakers (n=484) were presented with subjects, verbs, and objects (in random order and with morphological markings removed) extracted from naturally occurring sentences, and were asked to identify which noun is the agent of the action. Accuracy was high in both languages (~89% in English, ~87% in Russian), suggesting that word meanings strongly constrain who is doing what to whom. Next, we trained a neural network machine classifier on a similar task: predicting which nominal in a subject-verb-object triad is the subject. Across 30 languages from eight language families, performance was consistently high: a median accuracy of 87%, comparable to the ...
