Scripting with Idioms by Carla Butorac, MAT,SLP,Matslp Carla Butorac Pdf

Idioms are difficult to understand when encountered only in a written context. Studies have shown that in teaching children on the autism spectrum about idioms, the key is application. Students need to see how they can use idioms in everyday conversations. Instead of simply writing another textbook about the meanings of these challenging phrases, Carla Butorac, MAT, SLP, has created an interactive workbook full of scripted conversations, quizzes, and other features to help students practice. Butorac, who has spent her career as a speech-language pathologist and consultant for special education programs, includes 775 common idioms, like "wrong side of the tracks," "best of both worlds," and "it won't hurt to ask" for students to practice. Many people don't realize how many idioms we use in everyday conversation, and Butorac's work significantly lessens the confusion for those who don't grasp figurative language quickly. Butorac's scripts take students into simple conversations sprinkled with idioms. Students may be discussing vacation plans with parents, chatting with a friend about schoolwork, or meeting a new neighbor. Scripting with Idioms was specifically designed not only to be used by educators, but also by parents, caregivers, and families. Many will find idioms easier to understand and use with Butorac's guide.

Script-Based Semantics by Salvatore Attardo Pdf

The book contains essays in honor of Victor Raskin. The contributions are all directly related to some of the major areas of work in which Raskin's scholarship has spanned for decades. The obvious connecting idea is the encyclopedic script-based foundation of lexical meaning, which informs his pioneering work in semantics in the 1970s and 1980s. The first part of the book collects articles directly concerned with script-based semantics, which examine both the theoretical and methodological premises of the idea and its applications. Script-based semantics is the foundation of both Raskin's ground-breaking work in humor research (addressed by the articles in part 2) and in Ontological semantics (addressed in part 3), the most recent development of script-based semantics. The fourth part is dedicated to a less-known, but equally important, strand of Raskin's research, the applications of linguistics to other fields, including writing, lexicography, and professional applications (e,g., tourism). Overall, the book provides and up-to-date, in-depth discussion of an influential strand of the discussion on semantics and its most recent developments and influence on other seemingly unrelated fields, such as Cognitive Linguistics.

Idiomatic Creativity by Andreas Langlotz Pdf

This book revisits the theoretical and psycholinguistic controversies centred around the intriguing nature of idioms and proposes a more systematic cognitive-linguistic model of their grammatical status and use. Whenever speakers vary idioms in actual discourse, they open a linguistic window into idiomatic creativity – the complex cognitive processing and representation of these heterogeneous linguistic constructions. Idiomatic creativity therefore raises two challenging questions: What are the cognitive mechanisms that underlie and shape idiom-representation? How do these mechanisms define the scope and limits of systematic idiom-variation in actual discourse? The book approaches these problems by means of a comprehensive cognitive-linguistic architecture of meaning and language and analyses them on the basis of corpus-data from the British National Corpus (BNC). Therefore, Idiomatic Creativity should be of great interest to cognitive linguists, phraseologists, corpus linguists, advanced students of linguistics, and all readers who are interested in the fascinating interplay of language and cognitive processing.This book has a companion website: www.idiomatic-creativity.ch.

Generative AI and Multifactor Productivity in Business by Adedoyin, Festus Fatai,Christiansen, Bryan Pdf

As organizations grapple with the challenges of a dynamic market, the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) emerges not only as a technological progression but a strategic necessity. The transformative potential of AI, particularly through OpenAI, holds the promise of redefining operational paradigms, accelerating innovation, and unlocking unprecedented growth opportunities. However, lurking beneath this promise are challenges that demand urgent attention – from tailoring relevance for specific business units to ethical and safe integration practices. The specifics of how OpenAI can amplify labor productivity and enhance decision-making processes remain elusive. Generative AI and Multifactor Productivity in Business offers a guide surrounding the complexities of OpenAI's role in business operations. It contends that understanding OpenAI is not just beneficial; it is essential for organizations seeking to navigate economic uncertainties and unlock high levels of efficiency and growth. The book delves into the effects of OpenAI on business, with a primary objective of illuminating the scholarly and practitioner-based contributions that push the boundaries of OpenAI in business research. This exploration encompasses applications of advanced generative AI tools, language models, and innovative technologies specific to diverse businesses across sectors, scales, and regions. It emphasizes that as AI becomes more seamlessly integrated into business processes, the potential for multifactor productivity to fuel economic growth, new industries, and job opportunities is unparalleled.
