Abstract

This paper presents a sample pertaining to the creation and the use of words in the field of Natural Language Processing (NLP) in the years 1949-1966. These words have been statistically sorted and the results could be taken as a proof that electronic processing of linguistic data leads to the diffusion of clear and concise words for describing a complex concept which would need a circumlocution to be described instead. The aim of this article is to provide an evolutionary overview of these new lexical forms in the various languages for the period taken into account and, whereas possible, a data register and a tabular representation have been prepared as well.

dc.description.note L'articolo è inserito nel repository Machine Translation Archive: Electronic repository and bibliography of articles, books and papers on topics in machine translation, computer translation systems, and computer-based translation tools. Compiled by John Hutchins for the European Association for Machine Translation on behalf of the International Association for Machine Translation . The archive aims to cover comprehensively English-language publications since 1990. Papers and books from previous years are being added in order to provide good coverage from the beginnings of MT in the 1950s to 1990. (See list of recent additions.) For information about the archive, its coverage, its arrangement, copyright, citation, etc., see the introduction. The full texts of the great majority of publications are located on this website; however, the archive also includes a few publications accessed by links to other sites; these are primarily publications with copyright restrictions. http://www.mt-archive.info/ L' articolo è altresì inserito nel repository: ACL Anthology: A Digital Archive of Research Papers in Computational Linguistics of the Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL) http://aclweb.org/anthology-new/ -
