Applications

Sugar cubes


SugarTexts, in its second phase (ST2, 2010?-?), has both theoretical, empirical, and applied linguistic dimensions.

The applied issues concern i.a.:

  • Natural Language Processing (NLP): e.g., text generation (LSP)
  • Translation (LSP)
  • Terminology
  • Ontologies
  • Differences between LSP and LGP
  • Differences within LSP: e.g., the commercial texts of the factories vs. the non-commercial texts of e.g. encyclopedias
  • Narratology (the SugarText as a written narrative)
  • The Linguistic Relativity Hypothesis (Sapir-Whorf); Thinking for Speaking (Slobin)
  • Edutainment (some factories also offer edutainment on their web pages)
