Grammaticality

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Grammaticality (also: grammaticity, grammatical correctness) is a term introduced into linguistics by Noam Chomsky , which describes the grammatical compliance (well-formedness) of linguistic expressions in relation to a language model (a grammar).

The adversarial opposite is also known as ungrammaticality . In linguistics, non-grammatical sentences or forms are marked with an asterisk ( * ).

The concept of grammaticality is a counter-concept to factual acceptability , i.e. H. the acceptability of linguistic structures.
