But if this is so, then a question arises: What explains the intuitive difference between sentences that feel ungrammatical and those that merely feel semantically (or pragmatically) anomalous? This article addresses this question by describing and comparing various semantic and pragmatic proposals for explaining different types of weirdness: ungrammaticality, semantic anomaly, and pragmatic infelicity. According to a number of proposals, semantic and pragmatic processes can lead to weirdness that empirically feels more like ungrammaticality than semantic oddness. Semantic anomaly detection in school-aged children during natural sentence reading : A study of fixation-related brain potentials Related items Browse My. No sign of cardiac anomaly or unusual brain activity. NASAs EOS satellites pinged the anomaly first. It appears Carl, a weather anomaly this morning. Concentrate on how this anomaly was initially formed. However, sometimes it is not clear why a sentence is “weird,” which has repercussions for our syntactic and semantic theories. Captain, both the anomaly and the asteroid are accelerating. An example sentence would be: The anomaly of the necklace, is what she liked about it. To achieve this goal, it has been proposed that syntactically odd (or ungrammatical) sentences can be distinguished empirically and theoretically from semantically odd (or semantically anomalous) sentences. Sentence with anomaly Anomaly means, essentially, irregularity. A major goal of modern syntax has been to find principles that rule out sentences that seem ungrammatical.
