This document discusses semantics, the study of meaning in language. It defines semantics as understanding the meaning of words, morphemes, phrases and sentences. It also discusses three types of semantic analysis: semantic features which describe the components of a word's meaning using properties and values, semantic roles which describe the roles that entities play in sentences, such as agent, theme, or experiencer, and lexical relations which describe relationships between words. Examples are provided to illustrate semantic features and roles. The document is about defining semantics and the different approaches used in semantic analysis.

Compositional and Lexical Semantics differ in its varied approach and principles associated with each idea. These will be discussed in this presentation along with ambiguity, anomaly, tautologies, contradictions, entailment, etc.
It is my PPt about Semantics and Pragmatics; it only ver basic information about it, but hopefully it will be useful for your educational process or useful as your reading resources. You can contact me if you have a suggestion, critique, or maybe we can discuss this topic further.

What is a Noun (Kinds, categories & case of coun).pdfCambrige Academy
In Today’s article we study about what is noun, kinds of noun, categories of noun & case of noun. When we speak or write, we use words to express what we are thinking or feeling. In the sentence all can’t be noun. These many words which belong to the English language are classified into eight groups known as parts of speech. There are many other words and vocabularies in any language but all of them do not perform the same job.
For example,
some words express “action”.
Other words express a “thing”.
Other words “join” one word to another word. These are the “base builder” of the language. Just imagine them like the element of a house. When we want to build a house,
we use concrete to make the foundations or base.
We use bricks to make the walls.
or use window frames to make the windows, and door frames to make the doorways.
And we use cement to join them all together. Each part of the house has its own job. When we want to build a sentence, we use the different types of word. Each type of word has its own job.
Definition
The basic logical element of a language through which form a proper sentence is called parts of speech. There are 8 parts of speech in English Language.
The eight parts of speech are laid down in the table.

A Student of BS English in linguistics and Literature. This slide must be helpful to grasp the basics about Semantics. I hope you all will understand it and gain athentic knowledge from it. As l, Style is a man so this slide writing style show it's creater capabilities and expertisies. Thanks to all.
The Power of Nouns: noun is a part of speechstanleecaturan
noun is a part of speech in the English language that serves as the name of a person, place, thing, or idea. Essentially, nouns are words that identify and classify entities, allowing us to refer to them in speech or writing. They provide specificity and clarity in communication by giving names to the various elements of our world.
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

1. Semantics:
The Analysis of
Meaning
Group 7 :
• Ririn Destina (0611100106)
• Riyanti Oct. Nainggolan (06111001012)
• Melin Atika (06111001028)
• Ronika A. Manik (06111001034)
2. Meaning
• To understand language
– the meaning of words and of the morphemes
that compose them
– Words into phrases and sentences
– Context which determines the meaning
(Pragmatics)
3. The study of meaning of words,
phrases, and sentences.
• Lexical semantics (words and
meaning relationship among words)
•Phrasal/ sentential semantics
(syntactic units larger than a word)
What is Semantics?
4. How can we describe the meaning
of different words?
Three types of semantic analysis:
• Words as ‘containers’ Semantic features
•‘roles’ they fulfill Semantic roles
•‘relationship’ with other words lexical relation
5. Syntactically correct sentences but semantically
odd.
•The hamburger ate the man.
•My cat studies linguistics.
•The table listens to the radio
This relates to the conceptual components of the
words ‘hamburger, cat & table’ not human.
Semantic Features
6. • Semantic properties: The components of
meaning of a word.
• Meaning as collection of
properties/features typically with two
possible values (+ / -)
• Example of componential analysis:
baby is [+ young], [+ human], [+animate]
Semantic Features
8. Identify the features (1)
1.(a) widow, mother, sister, aunt, maid
(b) widower, father, brother, uncle
The (a) and (b) words are
The (a) words are
The (b) words are
2. (a) bachelor, paperboy, pope, chief
(b) bull, rooster, drake, ram
The (a) and (b) words are
The (a) words are
The (b) words are
[+ human]
[+ female]
[+ male]
[+ male]
[+ human]
[+ animal]
9. • Words are described according to the roles they
fulfill with the situation described in a sentence.
The boy kicked the ball
verb indicates action
Boy performs the action = agent
Ball undergoes the action = theme
• The NPs describe the role of entities (people or
things) involved in the action, i.e. they have certain
semantic (or thematic) roles.
Semantic roles
10. Agent = the entity that performs the action
Theme = the entity that undergoes the action
Experiencer = one who perceives something
Instrument = an entity used to perform an action
Location = the place where the action happens
Source = the place from which an action
originates.
Goal = the place where the action is directed
Semantic Roles
11. John is writing with a pen
agent instrument
Mary saw a mosquito on the wall
experiencer theme location
The children ran from the playground to the pool
agent source goal
The boy opened the door with a key
The dog bit the stick
With a stick, the man hit the dog.
