In the embeddings space, synonyms tend to appear in similar contexts and end up having similar embeddings. The space is a system smart enough to understand that "pretty" and "attractive" are playing for the same team. Without being explicitly told so. That’s the magic. At their core, vec...
It is important to note that in this study, ‘grammatical reasoning’ and ‘grammatical argumentation’ are used as synonyms throughout. We hypothesize that student teachers will have trouble reasoning about grammar, as they typically have not come across reasoning tasks in their own grammar educatio...
