This week, we discuss the complexities of dyspraxia, a neurodevelopmental disorder that can greatly affect written expression. We are joined by Natasha Gray, founder of Spark Learning in the Caribbean. We unpack dyspraxia and what it is and highlight its varied types and how it often overlaps with other challenges such as ADHD and dyslexia. Natasha explains the different ways that dyspraxia can manifest and discusses some of the warning signs such as illegible handwriting, avoidance of writing tasks, and challenges with spelling and spacing. Natasha also shares her insights into the neurological and motor components behind these struggles, and she highlights why it's important to understand each child's individual needs. Our conversation offers strategies and advice for parents and educators to support children with dyspraxia, with Natasha discussing the role of occupational therapy in developing fine motor skills and classroom accommodations such as typing out assignments and providing extra time for written tasks. We tackle common challenges, such as how to address fatigue and pain caused by writing, and Natasha offers some ways to build on patience and understanding in educational environments. If you're a parent, teacher, or someone eager to learn about supporting neurodivergent children, this episode is filled with expert advice, actionable strategies, and a compassionate approach to navigating dyspraxia! Show Notes: [2:59] - Dysgraphia varies widely and affects writing speed, expression, and presentation differently in each child. [4:44] - Natasha addresses dyslexic dysgraphia which impacts spelling, handwriting, and articulation despite strong verbal skills. [7:11] - Lexical dysgraphia in older children and adults stems from weak mental visualization of words. [8:43] - Writing difficulties in dysgraphia include poor spacing and dexterity, requiring customized accommodations. [11:46] - Dysgraphia often co-occurs with dyslexia, sharing sound-symbol association and written expression challenges. [12:58] - Natasha explains how children with dysgraphia often avoid writing and require patience, support, and therapy from teachers and parents. [15:30] - Natasha highlights the importance of improving children's fine motor skills in order to improve their handwriting. [17:05] - Natasha uses techniques such as practicing letter formation, strengthening exercises, and spacing tools to improve writing skills. [19:46] - Older children and adults can benefit from functional handwriting tasks, multisensory techniques, and assistive technology. [22:17] - Assistive tools and accommodations can help individuals demonstrate knowledge despite writing challenges. [24:53] - Natasha asserts that writing simple notes or emails helps adults improve skills, confidence, and vocabulary.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for December 17, 2024 is: lexical LEK-sih-kul adjective To describe something as lexical is to say that it is related to words or vocabulary. // A dictionary provides lexical information—it tells you what the word "cat" means, not all there is to know about cats. See the entry > Examples: "From his [artist Jean-Michel Basquiat's] lyrical brushstrokes to his lexical compositions, music is imbued even when the reference is subtle or ambiguous. There are obvious portraits of jazz greats and song titles in many works, while others force a more discerning gaze." — Natasha Gural, Forbes, 24 Jan. 2023 Did you know? The word lexical and its relatives have a special place in our hearts (and in our dictionaries). In addition to referring to one's personal vocabulary, lexicon can be used as a synonym of dictionary, and the word lexicography refers to the practice of making dictionaries. Both of these words, as well as lexical, come from the Greek word lexis, meaning "word" or "speech." So, if you're considering a lexical—that is, word-related—career as a wordsmith or, say, a lexicographer, you may want to add these terms to your lexicon.

Why do we have such a hard time figuring out what we're feeling? Alan Fiske joins Igor and Charles to unravel the mystery of emotions, revealing why your gut feeling might not be as clear-cut as you think. Drawing from his research into Kama Muta—a heartwarming rush of connection—and his critiques of how we label emotions, Alan sheds light on why most of us are pretty terrible at naming what we feel. Igor tackles the complexities of universal emotions, Alan shares why cultural differences make this even trickier, and Charles wonders if anyone truly knows what's going on inside their head. Welcome to Episode 60. Special Guest: Alan Fiske.

What is the Lexical Approach Teaching Method? The Lexical Approach is a language teaching method that prioritizes multi-word lexical phrases over individual words and grammar rules. It aims to develop learners' ability to recognize and use these phrases for natural, fluent speech and communicative competence. It emphasizes practical language skills and is seen as an alternative to traditional grammar-based methods. Michael Lewis developed this approach in the 1990s. #LexicalApproach #MichaelLewis #LexicalApproachMethod In the Teaching Methodology Exposed series, we take a look at notable language-teaching methods which have influenced us and wider education. We, as educational professionals, explain the history and rationale behind these methodologies and analyze a real class example to better weigh each method's pros and cons as an effective teaching approach. __________________________________________________________________________________ Video Chapters: Introduction: 0:00 Lexical Approach Explanation: 0:30 Lexical Approach Class Example & Break Down: 5:35 Lexical Approach Approach: 15:52 Lexical Approach Analysis: 24:25 __________________________________________________________________________________ Check out more: ✔ Teacher Interviews: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLXsBOoTKZz76OWuCuYZnCQRJfjWtrTrKC ✔ Explanation, Analysis & Example of Teaching Methods here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLXsBOoTKZz75i6auCa17LUt2k_JAOQLkr

Peter Mark Roget waited until retirement to compile his personal collection of synonyms into a book for publication: the first edition of Roget's Theasurus, released on 29th April, 1852. Despite initial scepticism from critics, who couldn't grasp its practical brilliance, the public embraced the new format - despite its unconventional organisation, in which synonyms were categorised by conceptual threads, rather than in alphabetical order. In this episode, Arion, Olly and Rebecca explain how Roget drew inspiration from the systematic brilliance of Carl Linnaeus; discover literary references to the book in J.M. Barrie and Sylvia Plath; and question whether Roget's work was an entirely positive development for journalism… Further Reading: • ‘Roget and His Thesaurus' (The Saturday Evening Post, 2023): https://www.saturdayeveningpost.com/2023/01/roget-and-his-thesaurus/ • ‘Peter Mark Roget, the Keeper (See: Steward, Caretaker) of Synonyms' (The New York Times, 2008): https://www.nytimes.com/2008/04/18/books/18book.html • 'Eulogy at a Roget's Thesaurus Funeral - Johnny Carson' (NBC): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PSYzLJiSZzM Love the show?

In this podcast, I talk to HUGH DELLAR, an English teacher, teacher trainer, materials writer, and a well-known proponent of the Lexical Approach in the world of English teaching. Most interviews Hugh does are about the Lexical approach, but he's also very vocal regarding the current conflict in Ukraine and that's what this episode is mainly about. We talk about Hugh's views on the war, his recent trip to Ukraine, the responsibility to speak out if you have a platform, Russia's nuclear threats, hypocrisy, whatabouterism, and much more. Hugh has his online school called the Lexical Lab.
Today's episode takes us on a linguistic exploration of the intricate relationship between words and their meanings. This episode invites listeners to rethink the traditional approach to language learning. Jennifer challenges the idea that dictionary definitions alone can equip learners with the practical knowledge of when and how to use vocabulary. Drawing on the wisdom of linguists like Sinclair and Aitchinson, she emphasizes the crucial role lexical combinations have in shaping the meaning of words. In the heart of the episode, Jennifer uses Arabic examples, focusing on the verb "بقدم" (biqadam) to illustrate how meaning is intricately tied to the nouns that follow. From hosting a show to filing a complaint, this verb's meaning becomes clear only when paired with specific nouns, echoing the importance of understanding words in context. Language learners are encouraged to observe these patterns, not only in Arabic but in any language they are learning. As Jane Conzett suggests, true fluency comes from understanding how words behave alongside other vocabulary. Jennifer urges Levantine Arabic learners to become keen observers, emphasizing that language learning is not just about words but about discovering culture hand in hand with language. Join us on this journey of linguistic discovery, where words come to life through their connections, and where cultural understanding is an integral part of the language learning process.

A9 Bot - How To Get The Most Out Of Your Listing Optimisation In this informative episode of Seller Sessions, host Danny McMillan gives listeners an inside look at the A9 Bot available exclusively through his website. This specialised bot aims to help sellers better grasp Amazon's ever-evolving A9 ranking algorithms and optimisation factors by synthesising key learnings from extensive scientific literature and patents. Laying the Groundwork Around A9 Understanding Before demonstrating the A9 Bot tool itself, Danny emphasises how this fits into his broader mission to equip Amazon sellers with more technical competency on the inner workings of Amazon search. He's compiled and working through 1234 scientific papers and has written at depth on subjects sellers may find confusing or conflicting when trying to rank higher. Understanding Product Photos and How Attributes Really Work How Amazon Protects Answers to Product Questions Using Similar Products The Real Reason Why A10 is a Myth Improving Seasonal Relevance and Ranking on Amazon Search This scientific grounding informs the A9 Bot's capabilities for listing optimisation tied to ranking factors. Danny emphasises digesting this background will prove useful for sellers aiming to "level up" their Amazon search education. Introducing Key Match Types: Lexical vs. Semantic vs. BERT Contextual As Danny shifts into demonstrating the tool itself, he starts by outlining three key match types critical to understand: Lexical Matching Semantic Matching BERT Contextual Matching While lexical matching should remain core to any keyword targeting strategy, Danny urges sellers not to limit themselves to only indexing keywords. The semantic and BERT matches within A9 paint a fuller picture of what customers may search for — and how listings can evolve to reach more searchers. Seeing the A9 Bot in Action: Listing Rewrites To illustrate the bot's capabilities, Danny provides a demo using a beard oil product as an example. He prompts the bot to rewrite the listing bullets targeting first lexical matches, then semantic matches, and finally keyword matches informed by BERT's contextual analysis. The output shows clear differences highlighting how each match type shapes results. The lexical rewrite sticks closest to exact keyword matches in the original beard oil listing. Meanwhile the semantic match incorporates more contextual phrases that extend meaning like beard grooming and shaping tools. Finally, the BERT rewrite recognises entities and relationships to recommend additional keywords around skin conditioning, packaging format, and product feel during application. This small demo begins to showcase how tapping scientific advances in language AI can assist sellers in reaching more customers. While their manual testing and listing quality control remains imperative, leveraging innovations like BERT as an input can spur new optimisation ideas. Key Takeaways and Parting Thoughts In concluding his A9 Bot intro, Danny shares a few final recommendations: Use provided prompts to experiment rewriting your own listings with lexical, semantic, and BERT matches Check his site's “A9 Algorithm” section for articles dispelling myths plus evolving science around ranking factors Recognise sellers optimise for conversion while Amazon algorithms focus on customer experience first Avoid overstuffing listings with keywords without considering user experience With innovations in contextual language understanding racing ahead, Danny emphasises sellers must stay on the pulse of Amazon advancements to remain competitive in organic search. Tools like the A9 Bot point to a future where semantic search capabilities will only grow more advanced. Though testing and high-quality listings remain essential, embracing these new frontiers in AI can help uncover more opportunities.

Language Servers underpin the language specific support we rely on in modern code editors. Lately, there have been new efforts in this area in the Elixir community. We talk with Steve Cohen about his project Lexical LS to learn about his new Elixir Language Server, how long he's been at it, and what it can do today. We learn about some of the technical challenges when creating a tool like this, and why there's still room for new projects in this area. Steve explains how Lexical LS is architected and that it is a goal to be easy to contribute to and work on the Lexical project itself. Time to give it a try!

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2023.07.17.549412v1?rss=1 Authors: Rafferty, M. B., Saltuklaroglu, T., Paek, E. J., Reilly, K. J., Jenson, D., Thornton, D., Casenhiser, D. M. Abstract: It has been suggested that the synchronization of neural oscillations to syntactic units, such as phrases or clauses, is dependent on lexically-derived projections of syntactic structure. This assertion is based from recent evidence that participants are unable to effectively track syntax when listening to jabberwocky sentences, in which content words are replaced with pseudowords thereby eliminating lexically-derived syntactic projections (Kaufeld et al., 2020; Coopmans et al., 2022). In the present study, we present evidence that participants can in fact track syntactic units in jabberwocky sentences when the stimuli are presented visually and in a syntactic pattern with high cue validity - methodological differences that make it easier for participants to identify syntactic patterns. We interpret this finding as indicating that the primary driving force of cortical tracking is pattern recognition and temporal predication of said pattern and that this pattern need not derive from lexical projections.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Which personality traits are real? Stress-testing the lexical hypothesis, published by tailcalled on June 21, 2023 on LessWrong. This post is also available on my Substack. Thanks to Justis Mills for proofreading and feedback! Most scientific personality models are, directly or indirectly, based on the lexical hypothesis, which roughly speaking states that there is a correspondence between important personality traits and abstract behavior-descriptive adjectives. For example, the Big Five was created by having people rate themselves using words like "outgoing", "hard-working" and "kind", and finding patterns in these. It is neat that one can create models in this way, but the large amount of abstraction involved by using abstract adjectives raises huge questions about how "real" the personality traits are. I have created a new personality test, currently named Targeted Personality Test. I have multiple goals with this test, but one of them is to investigate which personality traits are “real” without relying on the lexical hypothesis. I do this mainly by assessing lots of specific narrow behaviors, rather than abstract vague adjectives. By the end of this blog post, I hope to have introduced some concepts that makes my approach make sense, and thereby enable you to understand this diagram I made summarizing my results: The semi-formal understanding of what is going on in this chart is very long, so before we proceed, let me give a brief, vague indication of what you will be informed about: Trait impact: a measure of how strongly the personality trait influences the various behaviors and thoughts that we would expect it to. Factor model loss: a measure of how much the personality trait conflates different unrelated things together. Correlation with lexical notion: a measure of how well-labelled the personality trait is. (You can mostly ignore this variable as all of the personality traits performed reasonably well on it.) Easy-Goingness: An example A conventional personality test such as the SPI-81-27&5 might measure your personality traits such as Easy-Goingness by asking you how well a few abstract statements describe you, e.g.: I like to take it easy I like a leisurely lifestyle I have a slow pace to my life It seems plausible that someone who agrees that such statements describe them would be Easy-Going in some sense, and indeed I bet this sort of measure can pass all sorts of criteria used by psychologists to evaluate the quality of the test. So if it is probably valid by the standard criteria, what could go wrong that the standard criteria don't test for? Well, let's imagine the sort of person who is Easy-Going. They probably tend to relax in their free time, e.g. watching TV, and they probably don't get worked up about controversial stuff, and they probably don't go above and beyond at work. Basically, a relaxed person who doesn't get too stressed or excited about things. When we call the person above “Easy-Going”, is this just a convenient label we use for someone who happens to have a constellation of traits like the above? Or are we saying that there is some underlying factor, like a motive to take it easy, which causes them to have these sorts of characteristics? Or maybe there are some underlying factors, but they are heterogeneous and “Easy-Goingness” lumps them together? These are the sorts of questions I tried to investigate. My first step was to come up with a more concrete characterization of Easy-Goingness than abstract statements like “I like to take it easy” or “I have a slow pace to my life”. I did this by giving the SPI-81-27&5 test to a bunch of people, and then asking the people who score high and low in Easy-Goingness to describe an example of how they could be said to be Easy-Going. To give you a taste for the answers, one person who scored h...

Finn and Catherine give you some tips on how to remember new words.
How do those words taste coming out of your mouth? Usually spoken to you when you have to eat your words… like I was wrong, I am sorry or worse yet… the Bears still suck… but the truth is words do have a taste to them… its biblical. Did you know that some people taste words? No, its true, I am not making this up. Now before you say “oh yea like a cake that spells your name” NOPE. I mean there are people in the world today that when certain words are spoken their brain causes their mouth to taste certain tastes… but here is the weird thing… If I say Banana you don't taste bananas… it could actually be any key word that triggers the phenomena - for example every time you hear the word gymnasium your brain would tell your taste buds that you taste tomato soup - that would suck if you hated tomato soup. This actually has a scientific name… ready for this one? Lexical gustatory synesthesia… That makes me taste alphabet soup… JK But this was first recorded in 1907. It has now been studied by Neurologist Julia Sinner of the university of edinburgh. The case study was called “The taste of words on the tip of the tongue”. Now only 10 people in Europe and the United states have this condition… but how freaky! Here are some of the examples these ten people had: the word Castanets tasted like tuna fish Hearing the name John made one taste cornbread Another name William made someone taste potatoes and still another when hearing tomato would taste bananas… well at least they are both in the fruit family. But what's even more insightful is that the bible tells us our words can taste… good, salty sweet or even bitter Your words are like salt Col. 6:4 Let your speech always be with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer each one. Prov. 16:24 Gracious words are a honeycomb, sweet to the soul and healing to the bones. Prov. 4:20My son, pay attention to my words; incline your ear to my sayings. 21Do not lose sight of them; keep them within your heart. 22For they are life to those who find them, and health to the whole body.… And James 3:10-12 says our words can be bitter or sweet depending on our heart. The truth is our words have the same type of response as Lexical gustatory synesthesia What I mean is - when we go to open our mouth to speak in certain situations people around us are already expecting what to taste. We all have had the person, boss, father, mother etc… that when they start to talk you can already taste the foul terrible taste. It just is an immediate reaction. You know its going to taste bad, so you already taste it before they even finish their first sentence. On the other hand we have people that speak into our lives even when we do deserve harsh tasting words… but they do so in such a way that it tastes good, it brings healing and it nourishes our soul to seek God more. Lets be there person who speaks words of great taste and humble pie - our world needs it more than ever!
How should we understand the word δικαιούμενοι in Romans 3:24? It's often translated as "justified", but here we argue for the translation "made righteous." In this short discussion, we first look at recent proposals for what this word means. We then present some linguistic tools that you can use to think through what words mean and how to interpret them. In light of these tools, we will take another look at justification language in Romans 3:24 and in Romans more broadly.

When Amy joined the Workplace team nearly seven years ago (back then still under the name Facebook for Work), it became clear that it would require a messaging service. While there were already a few options available, none of them was designed to be plugged into a new app. That's when Amy and her team decided to take on white labeling Messenger for iOS to turn it into what would become Workplace Chat. Amy and Pascal discuss the challenges of taking a huge app that is under constant development and adding your own functionality on top. After many years on Workplace, Amy recently switched teams and now works on Lexical, "an extensible text editor library that does things differently". To find out why you should get excited about the upcoming open source release of the library, tune in! Got feedback?

Here's the last part of the 6 candidates doing the collaborative task of the B2, C1 and C2 exams and the corresponding analysis. They all did well, with some ups and downs, but with enough control to make a pass. I sincerely hope you can find these recordings, and my comments, useful. Remember that I'm available to coach students on their writing skills as well. Just contact me at podcast@languageteaching.es and I'll give more information on how to get my feedback on your writing skills as well. If you have plans to sit the C1 or C2 exams later this year, stay tuned as I'll give more details on an intensive course I'm putting up for August 2022. So, enjoy today's episode and share it with anyone who's preparing for Cambridge exams.

Lexical and dynamic scoping are useful tools to reason about various API design choices in PyTorch, related to context managers, global flags, dynamic dispatch, and how to deal with BC-breaking changes. I'll walk through three case studies, one from Python itself (changing the meaning of division to true division), and two from PyTorch (device context managers, and torch function for factory functions).Further reading.Me unsuccessfully asking around if there was a way to simulate __future__ in libraries https://stackoverflow.com/questions/66927362/way-to-opt-into-bc-breaking-changes-on-methods-within-a-single-moduleA very old issue asking for a way to change the default GPU device https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/issues/260 and a global GPU flag https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/issues/7535A more modern issue based off the lexical module idea https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/issues/27878Array module NEP https://numpy.org/neps/nep-0037-array-module.html
