Cognitive grammar is a cognitive approach to language developed by Ronald Langacker , which considers the basic units of language to be symbol s or conventional pairings of a semantic structure with a phonological label. Grammar consists of constraints on how these units can be combined to generate larger phrases which are also a pairing of semantics and phonology. The semantic aspects are modeled as image schema s rather than proposition s, and because of the tight binding with the label, each can invoke the other. Langacker develops the central ideas of cognitive grammar in his seminal, two volume Foundations of cognitive grammar , which became a major departure point for the emerging field of Cognitive Linguistics . Like construction grammar developed by Langacker s student Adele Goldberg linguist Adele Goldberg , and unlike many mainstream linguistic theories, cognitive grammar extends the notion of symbolic units to the grammar of languages. Langacker further assumes that linguistic structures are motivated by general cognitive processes. In formulating his theory, he makes extensive use of principles of gestalt psychology and draws analogies between linguistic structure and aspects of visual perception.

Inherited attributes, which must be passed down from parent nodes to children nodes of the abstract syntax tree during the Semantic analysis computer science semantic analysis of the parsing process, are a problem for bottom up parsing because in bottom up parsing, the parent nodes of the abstract syntax tree are created after creation of all of their children.

Formal definition In formal language theory , a formal grammargrammar is noncontracting or monotonic if all of its production rules are of the form where , where denotes the length of . That is, none of the rules decreases the size of the string that is being rewritten. It is essentially noncontracting if there may be one exception, namely, a rule S &epsilon where S is the start symbol and &epsilon the empty string. Example S abc S aSBc cB Bc bB bb This grammar generates the language math a n b n c n n ge 1 math , which is not context free language context free . There is also a much more complex noncontracting grammar for the language math a n b n c n d n n ge 1 math . Equivalent types of grammars expressive power There is an easy procedure for bringing any noncontracting grammar into Kuroda normal form . Procedures are known for transforming any noncontracting grammar into a context sensitive grammar and vice versa. Therefore, noncontracting grammars, grammars in Kuroda normal form, and context sensitive grammars have the same expressive power. To be precise, the noncontracting grammars describe exactly the context sensitive language s that do not include the empty string, while the essentially noncontracting grammars describe exactly the set of context sensitive language s.

Word grammar has been developed by Richard Hudson since the 1980s. It started as a model of syntax, whose most distinctive characteristic is its use of dependency grammar , an approach to syntax in which the sentence s structure is almost entirely contained in the information about individual words, and syntax is seen as consisting primarily of principles for combining words. The central syntactic relation is that of dependency between words constituent structure is not recognized except in the special case of coordinate structures. However an even more important claim of Word Grammar is that statements about words and their properties form a complex network of propositions. More recent work on Word Grammar cites neurocognitive linguistics as a source of inspiration for the idea that language is nothing but a network. One of the attractions of the network view is the possibility of analysing language in the same way as other kinds of knowledge, given that knowledge, or long term memory , is widely considered to be a network. Word grammar is an example of cognitive linguistics , which models language as part of general knowledge and not as a specialised mental faculty. ref Word Grammar New Perspectives on a Theory of Language Structure , Kensei Sugayama, et al., 2006, p.xv.
