| TIP (#35 OF 35) :  A.I. NOTICE: SGOL makes no use of artificial intelligence. If such use ever begins, it will be announced. In the meantime and indefinitely into the future, the definitions and examples that you enjoy here are compiled by "N.I." (natural intelligence), i.e., I type queries into search engines, look for suitable information in the results, select excerpts for inclusion, and assemble everything manually into glossary entries. If I err, it is human. | |||||
| THE PERSONAL GLOSSARY OF JON PAUL SANK | |||||
| In order to understand linguistics conference talks, I began in the mid-2000s to collect linguistics terms for a glossary or dictionary of my own. Wanting a useful conference companion and having decided also to share it, I aimed my design at lightning-fast page loading, common-sense navigation, easy scrolling, and universal compatibility. Pages would be small, simple, and display-responsive. Nowadays, this research-relevant lexicon is more professional-looking, much richer with terms, and more able to render linguistics notations, even while it remains simple and nimble. | |||||
