(#Syntax #Semantics)
To the point. Thanks!
great content and most importantly the voice. great use to voice intonations, rythme and clarity. keep it up!
Thanks for all your videos man :) It really helps with shorting out all the pretentius language of studing philosophy.
Thank you, perfectly explained
This video help me out to clarify the difference between them. Thank You.
Thanks for making it easier to understand these terms.
0:47 grammar seems to connect syntax to semantics, for example, adding 's' to plurals and verb conjugation is based on semantic rules.
A good explanation. Jives with my understanding of computer science and linguistics
+Scientist Sam Awesome, Thanks! And thanks for watching!
Interesting myfriend
clear, to the point, good examples. great
Thanks! Glad it was helpful. :)
I speak English and French. But dude, the 'car on part' duality hit me like lightning! Nice one.
So what does it mean? Examples like that are few and far between; I speak another Language too and very rarely do any Words in English have any meaning in my lnative Language and I can think of a couple of Words but a short sentence is hard to think of
thank you! really helped me for psychology test on language :)
Glad to help!
Great job!
"Car on part": great example that points to another aspect: sometimes just the written form isn't enough, especially when pronunciation can be widely different.
The example however feels a bit forced, since "Car on part" is fully correct but not current. I'd love a visualisation of how car, on and part have evolved in each language from their origin to todays meaning. Car from Carriage etc...
Thanks, it's a good quick content 😊
+Tushar Tripathi No problem! Thanks for watching.
Could this series have a better name? Nope! Very interesting. Does the video referred to at the end address the difference logical semantics and lexical semantics?
+James Hobson No, it focuses more on formal languages and the way that they can be defined. ruclips.net/video/ptyksCGBBn4/видео.html
wasn't what I was originally looking for but that is what I love about the internet, you start looking for one thing and one click leads to another until you have a new found interest and unquenchable thirst for a new area of study.
I know this might seem pedantic but, it would really benefit people with vision impairments to have a back ground which is not that white. Love your content.
Interesting
Great
This is really helpful! However, I am a bit confused about "Car on part." part, what is it really mean in French?
In French, “part” means “to leave”.
“Car on part” means “For we are leaving” or “Because we are leaving” or “for this reason, we are leaving”.
Part is 3rd person singular indicative present conjugation of verb “partir”. (English “to leave”)
all through programming
Syntax = structure (objective - 1st Order); Semantics = meaning (subjective - 2nd Order)?
+Jimbo Jones Basically, yes. Though objectivity and subjectivity may not map on perfectly, but that's the idea.
Car on part..Bad example. It's an HOMONYM.
HOMONYMS are words that sound alike but have different meanings. Homophones are a type of homonym that also sound alike and have different meanings, but have different spellings. HOMOGRAPHS are words that are spelled the same but have different meanings.
@@lesterduludis8892 I think what he meant is that, because English is an SVO language it doesn't mean that French should be SVO too- for example, Japan's language is SOV.
I think semantics need not be subjective. Consider a language such as chess notation, for example, in which you have the expression "Be5", where "B" means "bishop" and "e5" stands for the fifth row of the fifth column on a chessboard. The meaning of the expression is not subjective at all. Of course things are not so when we are dealing with the complexity of natural languages, such as English or French.
Did you just try to assign the string value "Reptile" to an integer :-)?
Algathonix lmao the compiler just threw an error
@@therealjasonc1243 what if int a ='b' ; then compiler will not throw an error because it is syntactically correct as int and char both corresponds to each other with their ascii value ...sementically wrong as if someone declares a int variable someone would expect to give any integers ...but reptile is both syntax and sementically wrong .
♥️
thanks for teh vid :> perfetcio
Thanks!
what is the name of the font you're using?
I keep it hush hush to avoid copycats, but I think that there are programs out there which can determine font from an image. Sorry!
Since this video was trying to explain what syntax and semantics mean, would this be considered a semantical video? :3
also try replying to this I think I fixed my comment settings.
+3DMint Haha, yes. And it seems that it is fixed. What did you do so that I can tell other people that have been having this problem?
I went here: plus.google.com/settings and changed "Who can comment on your public posts?" to "anyone".
I had to switch to mobile to desktop version of the page for that option to appear.
Syntax vs Semantics 0:15
great video....
Thanks!
is the power of formal languages that their syntax only maps to 1 object in the semantics space? i.e. things only have one single unambiguous meaning?
Its Homer Simpson tying to alter his voice but I"m not falling for that one!
so, is 1 of the holy grail of AI technology discern the semantics behind bad syntax?
I think a more specific example of what you are saying is the trophy suitcase example. I.e. in the sentence: "The trophy would not fit in the brown suitcase because it was too big." the question is what does the "it" refer to, i.e. what was too big? Particularly a generic solution to this. But also generally bad syntax is a challenge for AI.
Horse bag tomato teeth, might not be a sentence, however it could, be an effective adjective.
And then again... "Please pass me the tomato teeth." "Which ones?" "The horse bag tomato teeth. Please."
Every time I eat old pizza I get horse bag tomato teeth!
is 1 / 0 a syntax and has a semantic ? because it is undefined...
I would depend on your syntax rules. I would probably guess it is a syntax error, that the rules of math do not let us write it. But depending on what rules you use, it might be allowed, just not have any meaning or semantics.
Why is there no "semantics for dummies" book ....I really would like to learn more on basic semantics
+ROSA MARRERO-VALE If by semantics, you mean philosophy of language, here's a basic series that could help you get some information on the subject: ruclips.net/video/2LxIvDOtjpg/видео.html
really? int x = "Reptile" would be a semantics error and not a syntax error? Can that error only be determined at run time? i.e. can we not guarantee to always catch such a bug statically?
"Colorless green ideas sleep furiously"
+Henry G Haha. Great syntax, but the semantics could use some work...
+Carneades.org that was Chomsky. Can't take credit for that.
int x = "Reptile" , in programming Language is never correct syntactically.Thanks

Really unclear
I cant understand ur English
Thanks for all your videos man :) It really helps with shorting out all the pretentius language of studing philosophy.
