Me not English native speaker, check language please.
Seriously, the text should be thoroughly reviewed to pull out any EAL-related problems. Please pay special attention to the sample sentences. — mark ✎ 19:11, 20 Nov 2004 (UTC)
Done. I couldn't think of a good alternative to "evidentiality", which isn't a real word (but I believe I know what was meant). Due to my limited technical knowledge, there may be a couple of mistakes. MIT Trekkie 00:44, 16 Dec 2004 (UTC)
- Whoah! Thanks a lot for your work! This diff is going to be really instructive for me!
- Two minor mistakes I corrected:
- Evidentiality is a technical linguistic term that 'connotes the speaker's assessment of the evidence for his or her statement' [1]. It probably should have its own article.
- The wikilink to Primitive (linguistics) is not entirely appropriate, since Talmy doesn't want to assert that the Force Dynamic 'building blocks' are linguistic primitives (indeed, the very notion of linguistic primitives is invalid in the eyes of many cognitive linguists). (On a sidenote, the article about linguistic primitives should exist nevertheless.)
- Apart from that, great, great work! I owe you a lot. Thanks again. — mark ✎ 10:04, 16 Dec 2004 (UTC)
Ah. I didn't know that about evidentiality. Anyway, it was fun to learn new stuff, particularly regarding a topic completely unrelated to my field of study. MIT Trekkie 13:00, Dec 16, 2004 (UTC)
