Arcane Linguist

Chapter 204 Upgraded version of the spell "Language Proficiency"
"What, Roland's new article? What did he say again?"

"This time an analysis tool about syntax and semantics?"

"Segmentation, characterization, analysis... Sure enough, linguistics is arcane art, not witchcraft!"

As the gossip spread, related discussions quickly spread in Nevis City.

Roland came from the information age after computers were widely used in human society. In that era, the study of language also had a branch of computational linguistics.

Computational Linguistics (Computational Linguistics) refers to the process of analyzing and processing natural language by establishing formalized mathematical models, and using programs on computers to achieve analysis and processing.

The purpose of this is to use machines to simulate part or even all of human language abilities.

In a sense, this ability to model and analyze is irrespective of race, country and civilization.

It returns to the essence of symbolization.

Arts and sciences and the so-called language have been highly unified at this level.

This is the ultimate form of language, a symbolic mental model.

Of course, even some studies of Blue Star in the previous life are just the beginning.

Artificial intelligence technology has not yet developed to the point where it can completely simulate human conversation.

But there is magic in this world, as well as non-human intelligence such as Taling.

So everyone was surprised to find that this set can be used to improve the language function of Ta Ling.

Not only that, it can also improve certain spells.

For example, "know the language"!
Since the Arcane Age, these basic low-level spells have also been widely used and valued.

Even Swain and others couldn't help but began to inquire about the news, wanting to find out the authenticity of the paper.

Swain found Roland directly, and asked about it in the email.

"Did you really write that article? To be honest, I am currently researching and improving a spell related to translation, and I want to integrate it into the model of "Language Proficiency", but there is just a lack of an effective spell. new method.

I have a few questions here that I want to ask you for advice..."

It was only then that Roland realized that this kind of theory from the 30s and [-]s was considered new in the arcane world.

He gladly replied to Swain, telling him some of his ideas.

Improved analysis tools have indeed greatly improved translation.

Of course, Swain's research does not rely entirely on this article by Roland, but it does add a very important piece of the puzzle.

Just a few days later, he told Roland the good news.

"I have succeeded in improving "Language Proficiency", and this set of analysis methods is really useful! "

"Oh? What's going on?"

"Through my research, I found that these two analysis methods combined with some classical tools can effectively promote the analysis of dialects and unfamiliar languages ​​of the same family.

According to the quantitative indicators introduced by myself, the score is above 85.

In addition, the learning of various ambiguities and multiple meanings is more accurate and effective.

This kind of spell has a smoother understanding of the context.

You can even extend the spell's effect beyond the spell if you want! "

The last sentence Swain told Roland was undoubtedly a breakthrough.

Because no matter how good the former is, it is within the scope of the spell's effect.

It is a temporary buff.

And if the effect of the spell ends, "Language Proficiency" will no longer take effect.

Improving it, changing it from a temporary effect to a permanent effect, has always been a topic that the arcane community has been tirelessly exploring.

But now, Swain finally saw the hope of a breakthrough from Roland's set of analysis tools.

Roland thought about it for a while, and found that it should be in line with certain thinking habits of wizards in constructing and casting spells, thus achieving spiritual resonance.

This also makes the practicality of "knowing the language" even greater.

However, in this world, there is no magical item like the fantasy "translation bread" in a certain cartoon of Blue Star in the previous life.

If you want to achieve this effect, you have to be at the legendary level, or even a miracle bestowed by the gods.

Because it permanently changes something in the consciousness of the human brain and changes the model of thinking.

What this opens is the door called "native language acquisition".

"I am willing to devote myself to this, to crack this mystery, but so far, I can only make basic improvements.

This kind of spell should also be useful for you to promote Seris in the Reiner world. I plan to use Seris as the main research object first, and also use it as an application scenario.

Perhaps, we can call this project "Mastering Seres".

There is no need to mention the funds, experimental subjects, and manpower of the project. I can solve it myself. The key is to provide some materials for research, samples that cover various ambiguities, and so on. "

Swain revealed his plan to Roland, and at the same time issued an invitation for a joint experiment.

The reason for this is naturally ready-made.

He made improvements to this spell by citing Roland's article, and he and Roland are brothers in the same school.

Seres, again, is the main object of study.

After all the calculations, it seems that there is no other choice.

"Well, let's work together on this subject."

Roland readily accepted.

He has some ready-made materials.

In his previous life, he had collected some relevant information, such as the ambiguity caused by sentence punctuation, the ambiguity caused by omitting the subject, the ambiguity caused by polyphonic polysemous words, unclear reference, unknown recipient, etc.

These are all things that can be counted without memorizing cheats, but for Swain who only has a basic understanding of Seris, they are enough authoritative and comprehensive materials.

In this way, he reciprocated and gave Roland the improved spell model of "Language Proficiency".

For this spell, Roland can be said to be very familiar with it.

When he was admitted to the Orvisto Mage Tower, the teacher gave it to Roland as a reward.

Just came in handy right away.

……

"Mr. Roland is going to apply the improved "Language Proficiency" to us, so that we can deepen our understanding and consolidate the effect of acquisition? "

"This is really a great thing!"

Not long after, everyone in Reiner World also learned the news that the spell model had been improved, and they were all excited about it.

Because they have already realized that Roland introduced such magic technology to solve the problem of their low level of mastery of Seris.

Among these Leiner elites, although there are many backward elements such as capital compradors and feudal nobles...

But there are also some other people who really care about the country and the nation.

During this period of time, inside and outside the manor, some people could be seen from time to time studying hard with "Shuowen Jiezi".

The dignified "Great Magician", Ubor, Gideon and others also realized their shame and braved it. They used Seres in their daily communication and dialogue.

This desperate look reminded Roland of a certain passionate time, when scientific researchers studied Russian and English hard in order to catch up with developed countries.

It's so admirable!
It is said that it is difficult to truly empathize with each other, but there is still some emotional resonance.

Roland admired some of them from the bottom of his heart.

"Mr. Roland, is that rumor true?"

Xishan Manor, editorial committee, Roland's office.

Princess Rosa, relying on her proximity to the water, asked him a question.

"Oh? You're pretty well informed."

Roland couldn't help laughing and teasing.

"You didn't block the news at all, everyone is spreading it." Princess Rosa has changed back to her previous clothes at this time, and she is youthful and lovely.

"Indeed, I intend to introduce magic technology to solve this problem."

Roland considered his words and began to speak.

"The meaning of technology is originally for people to grow into a better self and have a better life.

Whether it's me or everyone in Reiner World, it is worth investing time and energy in more useful places.

If it takes a lifetime of time and energy to learn a language, but it cannot be used in practice and shines brightly, then what is the point of learning this language?

Therefore, it is necessary to improve and enhance "language proficiency".

I don't plan to take care of other languages, and I have no way to take care of them, but at least, Senior Swain and I have reached a consensus on the part of "proficient in Seres". "

"Shangbang's magic is really amazing!" Princess Rosa exclaimed sincerely.

In fact, for Roland, a traverser, such spells are indeed enough to be called miraculous.

It is almost equivalent to the artificial intelligence translation built in the brain, and even better.

And this kind of thing, no matter the model or the database, has a lot of room for improvement.

In theory, it is possible to know all languages ​​and understand all words and literal meanings.

But as Roland said, he can't take care of things in other languages. What he needs to do is to be proficient in Seres.

In the next few days, he combined indexing (Roland's wisdom enlightenment), wishing, dreaming and other spells to compile and integrate his own understanding.

This is a cutting-edge technology in the arcane field.

Just like quantum mechanics in the scientific world, all kinds of overtaking in various corners, in today's arcane world, all kinds of wishing techniques are popular, and it also fits Roland's past cognition invisibly.

The ultimate mystery of linguistics is that words cannot be followed!
Seres can try to take the crown in this field!
And his research in this area also has a foundation, and the previous "dream technique" has already begun to bear fruit.

Soon, he made a breakthrough in this aspect first.

"The New Arcane Art is really fast. In comparison, I have to honestly compile a model and solve many problems... But fortunately, when the time comes to popularize it, I have to rely on my own set of methods to apply it.

We can just learn from each other's strengths and make up for our weaknesses and solve it together. "

After learning about Roland's progress, Swain sighed sincerely.

The results of the first phase come out, and it is time to try.

After deliberation, Roland was still hesitating for a moment whether to go directly to the human experiment.

But Princess Rosa plucked up her courage and offered to apply: "Mr. Roland, let me come!

If knowing the language can solve the problem of language acquisition as quickly as possible, I am willing to give it a try! "

Roland said: "Although this kind of spell is not considered a forbidden spell, it also has certain risks. You should have heard the legend about the twisted wish!"

In all the heavens and worlds, there are legends that wishes are distorted and have various dire consequences.

These things are not groundless.

Princess Rosa said firmly: "My motherland has been waiting for a long time!"

In one word, Roland was completely silent.

After a long time, he said: "Okay."

Immediately, he reassured me: "I have created the "dream technique" promotion method, the desire for language acquisition is far easier than promotion, so I will use you as the first experimental product. "

But in his heart, he secretly made up his mind to use divine power to help him transform, instead of relying on his own magic power alone.

In fact, the latter is the real magic.

Although the former has a high success rate, it belongs to the category of divine arts.

As for the remaining certain risks, he didn't think so much.

In a sense, Roland is also a ruthless person.

In the original "dream technique", I dared to experiment with myself.

And in his eyes, the princess is not much different from other Lena people, and any experiment is an experiment.

As for non-human races, many have different physiological structures, high and low IQs, and wisdom models are also very different, so it may not be possible to test the effect.

Specially looking for some death row prisoners to deal with, and it may waste the magic effect.

You must know that this kind of spell is beneficial, and it will be beneficial if it is successful.

Therefore, under the premise that the risk is controllable, it is completely unnecessary to use death row prisoners.

In order to avoid all kinds of troubles, Roland and Princess Rosa agreed not to tell the outside world about this matter, so they tried it quietly in their office.

"Rosa, lie down here...there's no room in the office, but fortunately this desk is big enough, so I'll make do with it."

"Ah."

"Wait a minute, it might hurt a little... bear with it."

"Ah."

"Then, am I coming?"

"Come on, Mr. Roland, please don't pity me."

Opposite the office, in a corner of the manor, a pair of eyes looked at the closed door from a distance.

After more than an hour, Roland came out a little tired and pale, and supported his waist.

Princess Rosa followed behind, her face was rosy, and her expression was shy and excited.

The owner of those eyes withdrew his gaze with a little excitement, picked up a communication magic weapon that was a precious and rare object in the Leiner world, and sent a message: "Your Majesty, congratulations! Your plan...successful!"

"The plan... was successful?"

Soon, in the palace, Arkham XIV got the news.

Usually, he behaved submissively in front of the people of Altera, but a light flashed in his mediocre and incompetent eyes.

He straightened his back and held his head high.

He lifted up the phantom magic card he was playing in his hand, and squinted against the sunlight outside the window.

Brother Zheng was wearing a black dragon robe and holding a sword, his chilling expression seemed to have changed.

Arkham XIV seems to have seen it. Brother Zheng encouraged him with a smile on his face, and the sword in his hand also changed into a super double-long thumb raised high: "Brother Arkham, you can do it!" !"

Zheng!
White Fang shines!
