The secret life of connectives: a taxonomy to study individual differences in mid-adolescents’ use of connectives in writing to persuade
Mid-adolescence has been identified as a period of considerable potential growth in the language skills and practices that support reading and...

The Logic of Lexical Connectives
Natural language does not express all connectives definable in classical logic as simple lexical items. Coordination in English is expressed by...

Usage disambiguation of Turkish discourse connectives
This paper describes a rule-based approach and a machine learning approach to disambiguate the discourse usage of Turkish connectives, which not only...

Vague connectives
Most literature on vagueness deals with the phenomenon as applied to predicates. On the contrary, even the idea of vague connectives seems to be...

Default meanings: language’s logical connectives between comprehension and reasoning
Language employs various coordinators to connect propositions, a subset of which are “logical” in nature and thus analogous to the truth operators of...

Connectives with Both Arguments External: A Survey on Czech
Determining a relative position of a discourse connective and the two arguments (text segments) it connects is an important part of a full discourse... -
A Study of Monometrics from Fuzzy Logic Connectives
Recently, monometrics have attracted interest for their applications in fields such as decision making, penalty-based aggregation, and binary... -
zhi-{yao, you} ‘only-{need, have}’: on two conditional connectives in Mandarin
This paper offers a compositional take on two internally complex conditional connectives in Mandarin, zhi-yao ‘only-need’ and zhi-you ‘only-have’....

Automated Identification of Discourse Connectives in Ukrainian
Discourse connectives are words and phrases that mark discourse structure by expressing coherence relations explicitly. In this paper, we present the... -
A Computational Lexicon of Ukrainian Discourse Connectives
We introduce a new lexicon of discourse connectives for the Ukrainian language. Discourse connectives like ‘because’, ‘therefore’ are grammatical... -
Lesions of abdominal connectives reveal a conserved organization of the calling song central pattern generator (CPG) network in different cricket species
Although crickets move their front wings for sound production, the abdominal ganglia house the network of the singing central pattern generator. We...

On Lattice and Residuated Connectives
Clearly, not only implication, but also other logical connectives are crucial for the theory and the applications of particular logics. Hence, this... -
On the Order-Compatibility of Fuzzy Logic Connectives on the Generated Clifford Poset
Fuzzy logic connectives have been order-theoretically explored in many recent works. Among them, Clifford’s relations, both the additive and... -
What Kinds of Connectives Cause the Difference Between Intuitionistic Predicate Logic and the Logic of Constant Domains?
It is known that intuitionistic Kripke semantics can be generalized so that it can treat arbitrary propositional connectives characterized by truth... -
The Linguistic Formulation of Fallacies Matters: The Case of Causal Connectives
While the role of discourse connectives has long been acknowledged in argumentative frameworks, these approaches often take a coarse-grained approach...

Semantics Processing of Conditional Connectives: German wenn ‘if’ Versus nur wenn ‘only if’
In this paper, the meaning and processing of the German conditional connectives (CCs) such as wenn ‘if’ and nur wenn ‘only if’ are investigated. In...

The Naturality of Natural Deduction (II): On Atomic Polymorphism and Generalized Propositional Connectives
In a previous paper (of which this is a prosecution) we investigated the extraction of proof-theoretic properties of natural deduction derivations...

Towards a Taxonomy of Connectives
Connectives include traditional prepositions, conjunctions, and relative pronouns. Here it is shown that several other important distinctions must be... -
Generating Pseudo Connectives with MLMs for Implicit Discourse Relation Recognition
Due to the lack of connectives, the recognition of implicit discourse relations faces a big challenge. An early attempt overcomes this difficulty by... -
Non-conditional Contracting Connectives
It has been claimed that contracting connectivesContracting connective are conditionalsConditional. Our modest aim here is to show that the...
