Arcane Linguist

Chapter 203 Component Analysis and Analytical Hierarchy Process

Xishan Manor, in the large meeting room of the editorial committee.

Everyone gathered, and the atmosphere was dignified.

Roland sat on the stage, with a look of helplessness on his face, looked at the crowd who had heard the news and said: "Sit down first, let me talk about the previous exam.

The results are really not that ideal…”

"Lord Roland, let's announce it directly. Anyway, it's just an internal discussion. We've already made any mental preparations."

Suddenly, Master Ubor spoke.

Several other people also nodded, one by one, with serious faces.

"Okay then, since that's the case... I'll just say it straight."

Roland took out a stack of test papers and began to execute the punishment publicly.

"Master Ubor, 47 points, grade 3..."

The people next to him suddenly showed expressions that wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh.

Gideon also coughed sincerely.

But the next moment, he froze there.

"Master Gideon, 39 points, rating 3..."

Ah, this...

Everyone couldn't help being stunned.

This time, the exam uses a standard exam paper with level 4 difficulty.

I never thought that two masters in succession would pass the exam like this ghost.

Master Ubor sighed.

Master Gideon covered his face.

Failed, really failed.

"Ms. Gemaran, 41.5 points, rating 3..."

"Master Engel, 35 points, rating 3..."

Roland continued to read, but the result was that the others were not much better, or even worse.

This time, the exam was a mixed test paper with multiple levels and sections. Except for Lie and Blaise who got the grades of 6 and 4 respectively, the others didn't even pass the standard of 4.

It's a short life!

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became extremely awkward.

As for Princess Rosa, who only scored 27 points, she even lowered her head in shame, watching her toes scratching her feet.

She had the feeling that she wanted to dig a crack out of the ground to get in.

Fortunately, Roland got the point right.

"It's not to blame you, Siris is a magical language, and some things in the rune domain account for too much.

Although this is not asking you to learn magic, the related recitation, writing, and natural language-related ones also need to be mastered. "

Except for Lei and Blaise, among the editorial committee, the group of nobles and elite intellectuals who represent the Leiner elite and have the highest level of mastery of the Celestial language only reached the third stage of schooling (grades 5-6). elementary school student level! ?

The reason lies in the calligraphy that Lei proposed to add.

These people, calligraphy attainments are too low...

The magical rune structure is even more blank!
"Actually, the same test paper, replaced by many leading members of the Joint Research Association, is almost at the level of Level 4.

But what they have more than you is knowledge in the field of magic, and they don't necessarily have the same attainments in natural language. "

Having said that, Roland turned his head to look at the old man sitting quietly in the corner of the room.

"This time, Mr. Gnobion deserves special praise. He scored an excellent score of 4 points on the Level 83 standard test paper. This can already be combined with additional test questions to be classified as Level 5."

When everyone heard it, they turned their heads to look with some surprise.

It was only then that I realized that this old man, who usually does not show his face, looked indifferent, as if he had just done an ordinary thing.

This made everyone more curious about his background.

But now is not the time to delve into these things. Most of the people who can be selected into the editorial committee to hold high-level positions are Reiner nobles and intellectual elites with status, knowledge, and ideals.

They have their own concerns, and they don't care about gossip.

Improving your grades is the right thing to do!
……

"It's a headache. Siris is far more than just a natural language. The part involving magic has indeed become much more profound."

After everyone left, Roland looked at the information in his hand, frowned and became emotional.

Now that the grading test standards have come out, the general response is that it is too difficult.

This even made him wonder if his standard was set wrong.

But after thinking about it, the standard should not be lowered.

Because of the natural language part, the progress of non-native language learners has been taken into account.

Most of the other places where people lose points are closely related to accent, writing habits and other methods.

An important part of magic includes spells, runes.

These cannot be avoided.

Therefore, it is completely unnecessary to extract reciting and calligraphy as additional questions for separate assessment.

Even if possible, the ratio of these two major parts should be increased.

At least 20 points each!
In the next few days, everyone in the Xishan Manor began to study Seres hard.

"Hello, my name is……"

"The weather is really nice today..."

"Ghosts and ghosts, lutes and zithers..."

"Returned triumphantly, the fire in July, the rumours, the day is gone, not satisfactory..." (Note: It is reversed again, someone suggested that it should be brought back.)
Lei found that the interest of the Lena people in Sailis calligraphy has greatly increased, so he took the initiative to join his association and learn from him.

Card player Blaze also welcomed a few new fellows.

What's even more surprising is that many people imitated Roland's various living habits, including but not limited to using chopsticks.

"Rosa, why are you using chopsticks too?"

At lunch time another day, Roland finished his morning work, spread out the food box Al sent him, and prepared to eat.

It turned out that Rosa, who was also in the office, also opened her food box, took out the chopsticks, and picked up the vegetables with a little rustiness.

"Several masters said that this graceful way of eating can effectively exercise the dexterity of the fingers, which may be the key to learning calligraphy.

I also want to give it a try. "

Rosa smiled a little embarrassedly.

"This kind of thing is not directly related, but all languages ​​are closely related to history, culture and living habits. This is why linguists must become historians, researchers of folk culture, and learn various humanities and social science knowledge. reason.

The formation of language is inseparable from the development of history. "

Roland said to her.

"But you were born knowing it. This kind of wisdom bestowed by God is really enviable." Rosa admired it sincerely.

"If only I had that one-tenth...no, one-hundredth of a genius."

While speaking, her gaze fell on Roland's food box involuntarily, but she was soon attracted by the food inside.

"What kind of dishes are these, this cooking method seems to be completely different from our Reina."

"Eh? Reiner doesn't have a cooking method like 'frying'?"

Roland was taken aback, and suddenly discovered that there was one more field that could be spread in the Seris culture.

There is no cooking in this world?

……

"You need to use an iron pan for cooking, prepare a spatula or spoon, add hot oil, and use water to control the temperature..."

In the afternoon, in the backyard kitchen of Xishan Manor, Roland personally taught Rosa how to cook simple dishes.

At this time, the two of them realized that the cooking method of stir-frying is not really absent in this world, but it is called by other names.

However, the specific frying methods are also different, and the commonly used seasonings, etc. are different.

Roland took this opportunity to bring the Seris food culture, which still brought a feeling of novelty to Princess Rosa.

After watching Roland's demonstration, she couldn't help exclaiming: "You know everything, really like the prophets in the legends."

Roland's vanity was greatly satisfied by the adoring eyes of this exotic beauty.

But hearing her say that, I still couldn't help laughing.

"Where is such an exaggeration? Now I am also absorbing the knowledge of Reiner's world, so as to achieve myself."

Princess Rosa didn't notice what Roland was saying at all, she just observed and tried to understand everything about him more attentively.

Back in the office, Roland continued to analyze Seres, trying to further improve the relevant courses.

In the past era, language was often regarded as a kind of pure experiential knowledge, and a sufficient sense of language could be cultivated only by the cramming education of reading the book a hundred times.

The textbooks that the committee asked him to compile before also started from this aspect.

But what exactly is language sense?
Its essence is perceptual cognition based on experience.

This kind of training direction may be able to meet the needs of daily dialogue and communication, and write various beautiful chapters that are famous in history, but it is very unfavorable for the needs of the information age, big data analysis, artificial intelligence, etc.

Language education cannot be a parrot. People follow the experience of the past and the present, and tirelessly provide various materials to feed the human brain. If they are confused or inexplicable, they will be able to listen, read, and write. This often depends on the individual The genius of the individual, not the genius of crowds.

For computers, for the new era, and for the training needs of information processing and thinking logic, this set of experience is not only helpless, but even harmful.

If the problem of division of arts and sciences and analysis methods of linguistics is not thoroughly resolved, it is likely to cause many inconveniences in the era of artificial intelligence.

Because language is the symbolic expression of thinking and consciousness, this is more fully reflected in this world where magical power is the mainstream.

In a word, it is necessary to clarify the analysis tools of Seres language education, and use a more scientific and perfect method to study this language.

In the past, our Chinese education also adopted the traditional central word analysis method (component analysis method), which can grasp the context of the sentence at once and simplify it into the basic structure of the subject-verb-object definite complement.

However, the magical civilization of this world originated from symbols, language spirits (and geometry), rune language and corresponding spell models, which are actually more computer-oriented.

In addition, there are some syntactic structures in Chinese itself that cannot be effectively solved by component analysis.

So Roland intends to introduce the AHP to teach people in this world from the level of language structure.

This set of analysis methods will not separate semantics, and has wide applicability, applicable to morphemes, words, phrases, and sentences.

It is also easier to cultivate correct thinking for sentence segmentation and qualitative that may be involved in the future.

The disadvantage is that it is not easy to grasp the main body and understand the meaning.

However, the two complement each other and are perfect, and they should be able to play a big role in the current situation of Reiner's world and the development of the Siris School.

At that moment, Roland snapped his fingers and performed the "Scribing Technique".

The magic quill stood up, like a dancing elf, and began to write rustlingly on the paper.

"Rosa, check it out for me, polish it up, and then submit it to the "Runes" in Arterine!"

Not long after, an article that was not many words but could be called the essence of modern Chinese analysis methods was published.

Rosa looked at it and was immediately stunned.

""Introduction to Analytical Methods of Seres Language"?"

Eyes as bright as a deer were clouded with mist.

The article itself was written in Elvish, and she could recognize every word in it.

However, the meaning of connecting them together is not recognized at all.

"Mr. Roland, I... I don't understand at all!"

After Roland heard it, he immediately realized that this kind of thing was still too modern for Reiner's world.

Even in the previous life of Blue Star, it was proposed by the school of descriptive language that gradually formed in the 20th century and entered modern times.

This method is also different from the traditional Seresian research methods in the past, such as the preposition of the object, the postposition of the attributive, and the inversion of the subject and predicate... are essentially artificially created concepts, which have nothing to do with the language itself.

It is the category of linguistics, the methods and tools of analysis.

When conducting language research, this set of analysis methods is universal, so it is also applicable to classical Chinese, vernacular, or languages ​​of multiple countries, but it may not be fully applicable, just like you cannot use a ruler to do all carpentry Live, sometimes it simply cannot measure.

Roland could only call Rosa over, and gave her a simple science introduction himself.

……

Art Rhine, Castle in the Sky, Nevis.

In the editorial department of "Runes".

Editor Anna and others were bored looking at idle books when they suddenly heard a reminder from Ta Ling.

"Ms Anna, you have a new manuscript pending review.

School of runes, field of linguistics...

"Introduction to Analytical Methods of Seres Language"..."

With some doubts, Anna took out the manuscript from the fax circle.

"Contributions from the Seris School? These days, there are quite a few!"

Roland has not submitted a paper for more than half a year. This does not mean that he has stopped "inventing and creating", but that after becoming famous, he no longer needs to produce results so frequently.

But his own silence does not mean the silence of the Siris School.

On the contrary, as the system of Siris runes and various related spells gradually matured, more and more results emerged.

Even a journal of the level of "Rune" has received a lot of related results.

This is not even all within the school, there are many external mages who are also trying to study this.

"This time, what kind of results will it be, but it doesn't seem to have anything to do with magic...Huh?"

Suddenly, Anna's expression changed drastically.

She realized it was unusual.

Seres Language Education...

Component Analysis and Analytic Hierarchy Process…

"Although this article is short and an introduction of a general nature, its height and significance are not possessed by ordinary school members!

This must be the manuscript contributed by Roland!definitely is! "
