Talk:Reification (linguistics)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This needs work, and cites. There's also an NPOV problem; the claim that this is useful is a statement of a position. For a contrary view, see the classic essay "Artificial Intelligence Meets Natural Stupidity", by Drew McDermott. --John Nagle 05:57, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
- Yeah, by all means. I created this from the blurb that used to be at reification. I know nothing about the subject, so couldn't expand on it at all. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Deleuze (talk • contribs).
- OK, we'll leave the "verify" tag, and maybe someone will fix it up. The idea of turning natural language into predicate calculus was considered a neat idea in the late 1970s, but it didn't turn out to be very useful. An update to more modern thinking would be helpful, but I'm not current in that field. --John Nagle 06:11, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
