Over the years, "regex" pattern matching has been getting more and more powerful to the point where I wonder: is it really just context-sensitive-grammar matching? Is it a variation/extension of context-free-grammar matching? Where is it right now and why don't we just call it that instead of the old, restrictive "regular expression"?

In particular backreferences to capturing parentheses make regular expressions more complex than regular, context-free, or context-sensitive grammars. The name is simply historically grown (as many words). See also this section in Wikipedia and this explanation with an example from Perl.

Hello, guys! I've been having problems to find good books or sources to learn Modern Greek, but so far I've got Assimil, Colloquial, Michel Thomas, Ellinika.org and Language Transfer. What I miss the most is a good grammar book, with or without exercises.

English has had many outside influences both from being colonized and colonizing many other countries with different languages and vocabulary. English has had three major forms of existence starting with Old English around 450-1100AD, Middle English during the Dark Ages and then during the end of the Medieval era and start of the Renaissance in the 1500s it evolved into modern English.

The grammar of Modern Greek, as spoken in present-day Greece and Cyprus, is essentially that of Demotic Greek, but it has also assimilated certain elements of Katharevousa, the archaic, learned variety of Greek imitating Classical Greek forms, which used to be the official language of Greece through much of the 19th and 20th centuries.[1][2] Modern Greek grammar has preserved many features of Ancient Greek, but has also undergone changes in a similar direction as many other modern Indo-European languages, from more synthetic to more analytic structures.

Greek is one of the few modern Indo-European languages that still retain a morphological contrast between the two inherited Proto-Indo-European grammatical voices: active and mediopassive. The mediopassive has several functions:

In 2012, at the initiative of Uppsala University, the University of Balochistan and the Balochi Academy, Quetta, as well as a number of Baloch authors and literary societies, a programme was launched with the purpose of working towards the standardization of Balochi orthography and grammar. At an orthography conference held in Uppsala in 2014, the participants decided to work on two parallel orthographies, one based on the Arabic script and one on the Latin script. In 2016, a grammar conference was held, at which some of the areas of grammatical variation in Balochi were discussed and suggestions were made about what forms to include in the standard written Balochi language.

ENGL 537 - Survey of Modern English Grammar 3 Hour(s) Credit 

To provide an understanding of the systematic structure and rules of English, i.e., the system underlying the construction of possible sentences in the English language; the grammatical terminology and concepts necessary for the analysis of English structures, i.e., the metalanguage of analysis; the application of such a theoretical background in the actual linguistic analysis of English constructions; the utility of such a knowledge in the future teaching of English, to both native and ESOL speakers; and some typical fallacies concerning the structure and pedagogical applications of English grammar.

Three hours per week.


LING 325 - Modern English Grammar(3 units)


Study of the structural characteristics of English words, phrases and sentences. Traditional grammatical terminology, basic morphology, constituent structure, phrase structure, finite and nonfinite clauses. Descriptive and prescriptive grammar; reference to pedagogical contexts. Not open for credit to students with credit in ENGL 325.


Letter grade only (A-F).

Inflected Vocabulary: In the early chapters, some words will be given in an inflected form (like the English saw from the verb see). These words will enable you to begin reading simple sentences and will serve as reference points as you progress in the grammar.

In a compact, easy-to-use format, this new book offers a convenient guide to grammar for any student of Modern Standard Arabic (MSA), the version of Arabic most commonly used in journalism, formal writing, and litera-ture. Drawing on over a decade of experience as a full-time teacher of Arabic, Azza Hassanein explains the rules in straight-forward English, illustrating usage with examples throughout. The book covers all the rules of grammar and morphology that students require for elementary, intermediate, and advanced levels of Arabic. As a compact guide, it is an ideal auxiliary, no matter what textbook the student is using. While students of the language will find Modern Standard Arabic Grammar extremely helpful, it is also a valuable tool for linguists who want to acquire a clear idea about the skeletal structure of the language, as well as translators who are working with written Arabic. 

Covering all the important grammatical rules of MSA, from nisba adjectives and nominal and verbal sentences to more complex constructions such as condi-tional sentences and the subjunctive, this unique handbook fills a real need for the growing number of people worldwide learning Arabic.

What I am looking for is a description of the Latin language as the living language of today.It can well be a comparison to classical Latin instead of a description of the modern variant(s) in and of itself.The study or grammar can be restricted to some subset, such as a specific Latin newscast or the language of a specific living Latin community.

It looks as if you are hoping for a latter-day Quintilian, but the modern works from which he might draw examples hardly form a body which could be thought of as homogeneous to anything near the degree seen in the literature to which Quintilian had access. [That said, the website is an engaging source of modern Latin, with many contributors displaying a wide variety of abilities and interests.]

EDIT: There are, or were, resources to help the intending Latinizing bureaucrat, though these are unlikely to amount to a comprehensive grammar as such. Search for Fagher Reginald Foster. He retired as Latin Secretary in 2009 but is, I think, still active.

This course shows how to systematically analyze grammar and style of sentences and longer units of discourse. Explores academic and popular debates on grammar and grammar instruction and helps the student become a better speaker and writer.

This paper proposes a new analysis of the Classical Tibetan case system. After presenting the traditional as well as modern linguistics view on cases, I introduce a new analysis of the Classical Tibetan case system in ten cases: absolutive, agentive, genitive, dative, purposive, locative, ablative, elative, associative and comparative. The present description of morphology, grammatical semantics and syntax of the cases is based on four fundamental properties of the Classical Tibetan casemarkers, namely: cliticity, multifunctionality, transcategoriality and optionality. The originality of this literary case system lies in the multifunctional, transcategorial and optional nature of the casemarkers, which largely contributes to the great syntactic complexity of this old literary language of the Tibeto-Burman family.

Citations to grammars, dictionaries, and text collections published in the Himalayan Linguistics Archive Series will be by the number, in order of publication. The journal and the archive series will maintain their own numbering systems. Formal citation is by year of acceptance and number as follows:

It's great to see this evidence of interest in grammar (and grammars), and to see an argument for the relevant of 20th-century linguistics based on an insightful exploration of an interesting corner of English syntax. But it's less great that Mr. Hershberger fails to note that his crucial examples are actually a special case of a much more general pattern, and that the 53 comments go off in various interesting directions without noticing this. As usual in such cases, I blame the linguists, for allowing general education in grammatical analysis to fall into such a sorry state that smart people with an interest in such matters are generally not given the chance in school to learn more of the content and methods of the past sixty years or so of linguistic research.

After a bit more about how "traditional grammars" had no explanation for these facts, and indeed never "noticed the peculiarity of the construction", Hershberger gives what he takes to be the modern answer:

What is my point? That this is a restriction that traditional grammar cannot account for. I could have made it with a broader set of examples, or an entirely different set. I chose phrasal verbs because they are a narrow enough phenomenon to show briefly, and they are something that most native speakers have never heard of, yet intuitively understand. They also illustrate the extended argument that grammatical analysis, good or bad, has real-world implications. In this case, that they are an issue for non-native speakers, hence the numerous dictionaries of phrasal verbs aimed at students of English as a second language. ff782bc1db
