They choose contextually appropriate strings from these many ways with little conscious effort and with effective communicative results. Previous computational models of when English speakers produce non-canonical word orders, like topicalization, left-dislocation and clefts, fail. The primary goal of this book is to present a better model of when speakers choose to produce certain non-canonical word orders by incorporating the effects of discourse context and speaker goals on syntactic choice. This book makes extensive use of previously unexamined naturally occurring corpus data of non-canonical word order in English, both to illustrate the points of the theoretical model and to train the statistical model.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Routledge","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46929992319127,"sku":"9780415971041","price":14551.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780415971041.webp?v=1771604051","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/discourse-function-syntactic-form-in-natural-language-generation-9780415971041","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
