Word-Order Issues in English-to-Urdu Statistical Machine Translation We investigate phrase-based statistical machine translation between English and Urdu, two Indo-European languages that differ significantly in their word-order preferences. Reordering of words and phrases is thus a necessary part of the translation process. While local reordering is modeled nicely by phrase-based systems, long-distance reordering is known to be a hard problem. We perform experiments using the Moses SMT system and discuss reordering models available in Moses. We then present our novel, Urdu-aware, yet generalizable approach based on reordering phrases in syntactic parse tree of the source English sentence. Our technique significantly improves quality of English-Urdu translation with Moses, both in terms of BLEU score and of subjective human judgments.

This research is to examine the students‘motivational factors and attitude towards the learning ofEnglish grammar in a Computer-supported LearningSystem. Twenty-nine students were taught with astudent-centered approach and three grammar learningweb sites were used frequently for classroom andindividual English grammar practice, whereas anothertwenty-nine were taught with the traditional teachercenteredapproach. Both groups were given grammarcorrection and explanation tests before and after thestudy. After comparing the results of the pre-test andpost-test with those of the control group, it was foundthat the experimental group excelled over the controlgroup in both grammar correction and grammarexplanation. It proved that students‘ implicit andexplicit knowledge on English grammar was greatlyimproved by the computer-supported teaching methodsand environment. Further interviews with the studentsalso revealed that the new pedagogical practice hadprovided many positive motivational factors insupporting students‘ learning process.Keywords: motivation, grammar, computer-supportedclassroom.

Discourse relations bind smaller linguistic units into coherent texts. Automatically identifying discourse relations is difficult, because it requires understanding the semantics of the linked arguments. A more subtle challenge is that it is not enough to represent the meaning of each argument of a discourse relation, because the relation may depend on links between lowerlevel components, such as entity mentions. Our solution computes distributed meaning representations for each discourse argument by composition up the syntactic parse tree. We also perform a downward compositional pass to capture the meaning of coreferent entity mentions. Implicit discourse relations are then predicted from these two representations, obtaining substantial improvements on the Penn Discourse Treebank.

In the process of learning and using Chinese, Indonesia students may have grammatical errors due to negative migration of their native language. At present, there is no Mandarin grammar correction website or application that can answer the needs of Mandarin learners. Therefore, researchers want to try to provide a website chinesegrammarchecker.com that can answer the needs of Chinese language learners in Indonesia so as to facilitate Chinese language learners in mastering Chinese grammar. Hope researchers are learners can learn independently in making sentences in Chinese using proper and correct Chinese grammar. The method used in this study is a qualitative approach. The researcher will collect basic level Chinese grammar patterns in the textbooks used in the Chinese Language I courses, namely Er Ya Basic Chinese: Comprehensive Course (I) and Basic Chinese: Comprehensive Course (II). Then from these patterns user can check their sentences on this website. After the website chinesegrammarchecker.com was completed, then it was tested for several users to see the advantages and disadvantages of this website chinesegrammarchecker.com.
