150.computer system: the machine itself together with a keyboard,printer,screen,disk drives,programs,etc.
151.computer literacy: those people who have sufficient knowledge and skill in the use of computers and computer software.
152.computer linguistics: a branch of applied liguistics,dealing with computer processing of human language.
153.Call: computer-assisted language learning(call),refers to the use of a computer in the teaching or learning of a second or foreign language.
154.programnded instruction: the use of computers to monitor student progress,to direct students into appropriate lessons,material,etc.
155.local area network: are computers linked together by cables in a classroom,lab,or building.They offer teachers a novel approach for creating new activities for students that provide more time and
experience with target language.
156.CD-ROM: computer disk-read only memory allows huge amount of information to be stored on one disk with quich access to the information.Students and teachers can access information quickly and efficiently for use in and out of the classroom.
157.machine translation: refers to the use of machine(usually computer)to translate texts from one language to another.
158.concordance: the use of computer to search for a particular word,sequence of words.or perhaps even a part of speech in a text.The computer can also receive all examples of a particular word,usually in a context,which is a further aid to the linguist.It can also calculate the number of occurrences of the word so that information on the frequency of the word may be gathered.
159.annotation: if corpora is said to be unannotated-it appears in its existing raw state of plain text,whereas annotated corpora has been enhanced with various type of linguistic information, 160.annotation: if corpora is said to be unannotated—it appears in its existing raw state of plain text,whereas annotated corpora has been enhanced with various type of linguistic information. 161.informational retrieval: the term conventionally though somewhat inaccurately,applied to the type of actrvity discussed in this volume.An information retrieval system does not infor(i.e.change the knowledge of)the user on the subject of his inquiry.it merely informs on the existence(or non-existence)and whereabouts of documents relating to his request.
162.document representative: information structure is concerned with exploiting
relationships,between documents to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of retrieval strategies.It covers specifically a logical organization of information,such as document representatives,for the purpose of information retrieval.
163.precision: the proportion of retrieval documents which are relevant. 164.recall: the proportion of retrieval documents which are relevant.
165.applied linguistics: applications of linguistics to study of second and foreign language learning and teaching,and other areas such as translation,the compiling of dictionaries,etc
166.communicative competence: as defined by Hymes,the knowledge and ability involved in putting language to communicative use.
167.syllabus:the planning of course of instruction.It is a description of the cousr content,teaching procedures and learning experiences.
168.interlanguage:the type of language constructed by second or foreign language learners who are still in the process of learning a language,i.e.the language system between the target language and the learner’s native language.
169.transfer: the influence of mother tongue upon the second language.When structures of the two languages are similar,we can get positive transfer of facilitation;when the two languages are different in structures,negative transfer of inference occurs and result in errors.
170.validity: the degree to which a test meansures what it is meant to measure.There are four kinds of validity,i.e.content validity,construct validity,empirical valiodity,and face validity.
171.rebiability: can be defined as consistency.There are two kinds of reliability,i.e.stability reliability,and equiralence reliability.
172.hypercorrection: overuse of a standard linguistic features,in terms of both frequency,i.e.overpassing the speakers of higher social status,and overshooting the
target,i.e.extending the use of a form inalinguistic environment where it is not expected to occur,For example,pronouncing ideas as[ai’dier],extending pronouncing post-vocalic/r/ in an envorienment where it’s not supposed to occur.
173.discrete point test: a kind of test in which language structures or skills are further divided into individual points of phonology,syntax and lexis.
174.integrative test: a kind of test in which language structures or skills are further divided into individual points of phonology,syntax and lexis.
