Aspectual coding asymmetries: Predicting aspectual verb lengths by the effects frequency and information content
The topic of this paper is the interaction of aspectual verb coding, information content and lengths of verbs, as generally stated in Shannon’s source coding theorem on the interaction between the coding and length of a message. We hypothesize that, based on this interaction, lengths of aspectual ve...
