UC Berkeley researchers say large language models have gained "metalinguistic ability," a hallmark of human language and cognition no other animal has displayed.

In these more complex types of sentences, both nouns remained active in the prefrontal cortex throughout the sentence, even as the other one was being said.

Last week, we started discussing the differences between a phrase, clause and a sentence. We defined a phrase as a group of words without a subject and a predicate, though standing together to ...

Researchers at MIT found that reading sentences that take more effort to understand or are more complex result in a greater response from the brain. Stimulating activities could lower dementia risk.

Sentences with greater linguistic complexity are most likely to fire up a key brain language processing center, according to a study that employed an artificial language network.

Sentences at either end of the spectrum — either extremely simple, or so complex that they make no sense at all — evoked very little activation in the language network.

Most sentence diagramming follows either the Reid-Kellogg (noun|verb)approach or some variant of Chomsky's syntax-tree (NP\\VP) approach. Both methods violate principles of effective visual design: ...
