Conversation

TANAKA Akio

1 Automaton of language is shown by the free conversation between two.

2 Here an example of automaton is presented, conversation between a guide (automaton speaker) and a visitor to A town.

3 Sequence is shown below.

1) A guide has proper information of A town.

2) He (guide) has personality. – I like this town, because there is a splendid hill containing many living being such as birds, butterfly, trees, flowers and so forth.

3) He has <frame> of language. <Frame> is a type of a dictionary, for example like Collins Dictionary which has always renewed vocabulary, named Collins Internet dictionary.

4) He always generates <quantum> from <frame>.

5) A visitor questions. –Where am I?

6) He (guide) thinks about the question.

7) The question is analyzed by him.

[where] “Questionable information”

[am] “Inflectional information”

[I] “Definite information”

8) He answers like below.

“Definite info.” <from I to you> -You

“Inflectional info.” <from am to are> -are

“Questionable info.” <from where to clock tower> -at clock tower.

9) [At] is inserted from his(guide) dictionary’s <grammar>.

10) –You are at clock tower. This expression is <quantum> which needs energy for dynamism.

4 <Quantum>’s energy is prepared by electricity, for example a kind of voltage, difference of which makes different digital information to others.

5 In automaton of language, all of language is sent by the form of <quantum>.

6 <Quantum> is a set of units which consists of a finite number.

7 Each <quantum> has a closed information. <Quantum> is in a fixed condition.

8 Change of language is expressed by the distance and movement of <quantum>.

9 Quanta, a set of <quantum>s is finite. Therefore All of quanta can be descriptive.

10 <Descriptiveness> is essential for <Quantum Theory for Language>.

11 <Descriptiveness> will be presented by the new Essay in a short while.

Ideogram

TANAKA Akio

1 <Ideogram> is a unit for <frame> of language.

2 <Ideogram> is a figure which has two parts, <meaning> and <grammar>.

3 As a figure, <ideogram> is recognized in an instant.

4 <Ideogram> generates <quantum> in <system>.

5 Now there are 5 <ideogram>s, namely, [ I, meet, he, library, yesterday].

6 There becomes <quantum>, namely, / I meet he library yesterday. /

7 New <quantum> returns to <ideogram> .

8 New <ideogram>s are 6, [ I, meet. he. library, yesterday, I meet he library yesterday ].

9 There add 3<ideogram>s. [met, him, at].

10 New <quantum> is generated, / I met him at library yesterday. / .

11 <Ideogram> is static and fixed but <quantum> is dynamic and changeable.

12 <Quantum> needs energy for its dynamism but does not need dynamic devices.

13 <Ideogram> resembles Nintendo’s FAMICON, but differs in the following 14-18.

14 <Ideogram> is a source of <language>.

14 <Ideogram> is a part of automatic language generating machine.

15 <Ideogram> is a figure which is scanned and reproduced easily.

16 <Ideogram>’s inputting devices are various, such as typing, voice inputting, manual writing, pictograph and so forth.

17 <Ideogram> can install to language-answering-devices, such as telephone, vending machine, showing-way-machine and so forth. Answer is always individually different for the most adequate purpose.

18 <Ideogram>’s <grammar> is possible to be written as a sophisticated figure which is transformed to easy-readable style.

19 <Ideogram>’s <meaning> is enlarged by the adding-from-old-to-new system. See upper No.5-10.

1 Language consists of static <frame> and dynamic <quantum>.

2 When <frame> is recognized by <energy>, <quantum> begins moving.

3 <Energy> is inputted through human or electrical power.

4 <Frame> has <element>s which give information to <quantum>.

5 <Element>s generate <quantum> in a language <system>.

6 <System> has several coordinate axes.

7 <Quantum>’s location is determined by coordinate values.

8 <Frame> and <quantum> make a pair.

9 <Frame> is a figure which contains information to generate <quantum>.

10 <Quantum> is a unit of composite which contains <meaning> and <grammar>.

11 <Frame> is the source material of language, but not language itself.

12<Frame> keeps a fixed condition and is possible to move.

13 <Frame> resembles bar code, but differs in the following 14-21.

14 <Frame> has independent information of a set of <meaning> and <grammar>.

15 <Frame> is static and fixed, but generates dynamic <quantum> in <system>.

16 Now <frame> is expressed by [ ], and <quantum> is expressed by / /.

17 For example, when I make one new <frame> [ I go school yesterday], <quantum> is generated to / I went to school yesterday/ by <meaning> and <grammar> in information of <frame>.

18 <Quantum> is one of automatic language generating machine from functional view.

19 Ideally <frame> should be recognized in an instant by optical condition.

20 <Frame> should be made as a set of <ideogram>.

21 <Ideogram> has <vocabulary> and <dictionary> as a form of enlarged <meaning> and <grammar>.

22 One application of this concept is thinkable for hospital.

23 Medical charts are a <frame>. Charts are rewritten daily. Rewritten work is a <quantum>. <Quantum> is fixed in an instant to another <frame>.

24 <Frame>-<quantum> flow chart resembles a current computer system, but differs in the following 25-30.

25 Recognition of <frame> is done under a fixed condition, and do not use dynamic device.

26 Movement of <quantum> is done under simple <energy> system using inputting device.

27 Result of <quantum> is remained as a new <frame>.

28 <Quantum> will move on a little device, not the current computer.

29 Devices do not use dynamic methods, excluding inputting device.

30 All system is basically put under solid condition.

Prague Theory

Prague Theory 2

About Language Machine

TANAKA Akio

Language machine is assumed to a device of automatic generating language.

In this phase, <automatic> means the orderly arranged output against random occurred input.

The relationship between input and output is obeyed by a digitized quantified logic.

The logic is in accord with the principles and rules on <Quantum Theory for Language>.

In the machine, automatism contains the generation of linking language usually called copula.

For example, [ I ] and [ student ] is inputted, the output is [[ I am student]]. In the output, [[ am ]] is newly generated in the language machine.

Mark [ is a sign of input starting.

Mark ] is a sign of input ending.

Mark [[ is a sign of output starting.

Mark ]] is a sign of output ending.

Now [I], [student] and [March] are inputted, the output becomes [[I will be student in March]].

In this situation, [will be] and [in] are newly generated.

<Time principle of quantum> is the most radical theory for <Prague Theory>.

The principle is abbreviated to TPQ.

<Reversion principle of quantum> is contributed to <Guarantee of Language>.

The principle is abbreviated to RPQ.

TPQ and RPQ contain the longitude of time.

The time of TPQ is classified to the static one.

It is a width of the time on body clock of the quantum.

The time of RTQ is classified to the dynamic one.

It is a progress of the time on outer quantum.

Newly generated parts of language are linking language of different floor of <Quantum Theory for Language>.

Each floor has an orbit of quanta.

For example, in [[I am student]], [[I]] and [[student]] are placed to the different floors.

Two floors are linked by the copula [[am]].

The selection of suitable copula is operated by the inner information of each quantum and combination of two or over two quanta on the orbit.

Egyptian Hieroglyph Exhibition Journey through the Afterlife Ancient Egyptian Book of the Dead by The British Museum 2012

TANAKA Akio

The British Museum has exhibited The ancient Egypt at Tokyo, titled Journey through the Afterlife Ancient Egyptian Book of the Dead.
The exhibition is excellent, especially total length 37 meters' Greenfield Papyrus is the highlight of the exhibit.

I feel over again that the letters on the papyrus is almost everlasting and my usual thought that the letters are superior than the spoken language which is thought important by Ferdinand Saussure.
Of course I have respected Saussure so much and have read COURS DE LINGUISTIQUE GENERALE time to time.
But the Occidental linguistics has not enough tradition on the ideogram as usual at Chinese characters.

Japan has also succeeded the Chinese tradition and culture. So we have much felt the importance on characters and letters.
Each ideogram has its unique molding technique and coinage ability.
I have very satisfied with hieroglyph's figures comparison to Chinese characters.

Essence of Language Seeing the exhibition TREASURES OF ANCIENT GREECE, Tokyo National Museum 306

Essence of Language Seeing the exhibition TREASURES OF ANCIENT GREECE, Tokyo National Museum

TANAKA Akio

20 July 2016 I went to see the exhibition A JOURNEY TO THE IMMORTALS: TREASURES OF ANCIENT GREECE being opened at Tokyo National Museum, Ueno,Tokyo.

At the exhibition I first saw Linear A and Linear B.
Exhibition Catalogue numbers are the next.
The numbers 39 and 40 are Linear A. 41 and 77 are Linear B.

39. Clay juglet
40. Clay bar
41. Clay tablet
77. Linear B bar and tablet

About the two Linear I knew the brief information from the book, THE DECIPHERMENT OF LINEAR B by John Chadwick, Cambridge University Press, 1960.
From the exhibition I also knew still now not to decipher the Linear A.
My simple impression is the next.
If the stability of language exist in the structure, the essence of language is appeared at the letters and characters. So I think. The core of this view contains the view for structure of language, which I would be able to write clearly using mathematics.
For more details, refer to the reference 2.

The Days of Ideogram Ideogram from hieroglyph to LATEX Symbol List 304

The Days of Ideogram Ideogram from hieroglyph to LATEX Symbol List

TANAKA Akio
Sekinan Library

Mark * in the text shows Reference number.

1. Ideogram
Ideogram has long history.
In the early paper I ever simply defined ideogram*0-1.
I also wrote relative papers on ideogram from the viewpoint of Chinese characters*3-1, 3-2, 3-3.
Especially Manuscript of Quantum Theory for Language 2003 is a starting root of my research on language universals*3-2.
The history of ideogram continues from Egyptian hieroglyph to Chinese character and now adds LATEX Symbol List*6-1.
The 21st century will necessarily become the century of ideogram.
The reasons are below.

Ideogram can contain rich information in small space.
Ideogram can show information at a glance.
Ideogram can sustain information stably in long time*1-7.
Ideogram has fertile capability to superb diversity of languages*8-5.

2. Set theory
Probably in summer 1977, I was designing for a paper on the sentence in language. The central part of the paper was connection between words or sentence, in which the logic of language would be shown using the set theory as a simplified model of true and false. I was strongly influenced from Kurt Godel, Gaishi Takeuchi and Bourbaki*1-1. But this design was abandoned for my lack of mathematical basis keeping on.

3. Qing dynasty's linguistics
In 1980s and 1990s I was lost in learning Chinese classical character theory, Xiaoxue, especially Qing dynasty for ideogram's fundamental property*2-1. At this period I did not write any paper on language. I solely read WANG Guowei*1-2, WANG Yinzhi, DUAN Yucai and Qing dynasty's linguists.

4. Time property in characters
In Autumn 2002 I got pneumonia and was hospitalized about 2 weeks, where I thought of 1970s' dream, writing clear description on language universals by mathematics. The theme was as hard as ever. So, at the bed I thought the basis of language from a side of Chinese character’s classical approach which had vast heritage till Qing dynasty. I directed my attention to the character's figure which had compound meanings containing time elements continuing from Yin dynasty's hieroglyphic characters left on bones and tortoise carapaces some 2400 years ago. I thought that Chinese characters had containing time and its structure could be written by geometric approach once I had abandoned for difficulty. After leaving hospital, I wrote a paper titled On Time Property Inherent in Characters*3-1.

5. Quantum elements
In 2003 staying at Hakuba, Nagano, I wrote a rial paper on language universals from the viewpoint of physics. This was remained manuscript till now. The title was Manuscript of Quantum Theory for Language*3-2 for the time being. Because in summer 2003 I wrote the first paper on language universals from physics titles as Quantum Theory for Language*3-3 which was read at a conference held in winter 2003 of Nara Japan.

6. Finite generative
Language probably begins from finite elements and generates.*3-6, 3-7 its world responding to outer world. I learned the concept of finite generative from von Neumann Algebra*4-1 at around 2006 and 2007.

7. Structure and dimension
Language probably has structure, which details are unknown now for me. But several phenomena hints me the existence of structure containing dimension. Its example is shown at the Crete's lie, on which I wrote a tiny paper titled as True-false problem of the Crete*3-8 in 2013.
More details on mathematical approach to dimension is shown at Algebraic Geometry Language*4-2.

8. Immanent time
Chinese character has immanent time in figure *3-1, 3-4. On the theme I wrote several papers between 2003 and 2005. Main papers related with the theme are seen in Early Paper and Early Paper 2*5-1, 5-2.
For the immanent time, I wrote a mathematical paper titles as Word as Infinite Loop Space*3-9.
In comparison with Chinese character, hieroglyph is very fantastic object on ideogram. For more details, hieroglyph is more complex for describing the concept using two functions, logogram expressing things' meaning and phonogram expressing words' pronunciation*0-2, 8-3.
Besides hieroglyph has also definitive element which is put at the end of the word. This element is very similar to Chinese character's meaning element which is called Pang 旁 in Chinese*8-3.
But even for learning hieroglyph's basis, I have not enough time now. I only like to see the relative events on hieroglyph at time to time . The exhibition held at Mori Arts Gallery in 2012, Tokyo titled as The British Museum ANCIENT EGYPTIAN BOOK OF THE DEAD JOURNEY THROUGH THE AFTERLIFE *8-2 was very fantastic, in which The Greenfield Papyrus was overwhelming.

9. Disposition, distance, flow and boundary
For thinking of language, I have been interested in four elements, disposition, distance flow and boundary*3-10,11,12, 13, which seem to become the basis of language.
especially at researching ideogram, disposition is fundamental to construct grammar.

10. Energy, dimension and distance
For more further research language , now I suppose at least three elements being based from mathematical description, which are energy, dimension and distance*3-14.

11. Mapping and category
Ideogram now has an important part in computer age. Image confirmation is very popular at internet banking system, which can contain vast information in one image, so password decoding is more difficult than phonogram or Arabic numerals.
Generally ideogram has vast information to the others using comparatively easy way.
This ideograms situation resembles mapping at category theory in mathematics. For this point I wrote rough sketch to apply category theory to language theory. Sketch name is Derived Category Language 2016*4-3.
