Sociolinguists believe the attractiveness of a language is determined by how positively we view a particular group of people who share a cultural outlook.
Instead, it proposes that "words and phrases not meeting the norms of modern Russian literary language" be determined by an independent panel of experts.
To what extent the structure of a particular language is determined by or determines the form and content of the culture with which it is associated remains a controversial question.
In each state-description the truth or falsity of every sentence of the language is determined following the usual truth-functional rules quantifiers are treated substitutionally, and the language is assumed to have 'enough' constants.
According to a holistic determination principle for linguistic meaning the meanings of all the expressions of a language are determined together and by the whole of what is in SB (cf. Pagin 1997).
From this perspective, Feyerabend developed 'thesis I', according to which the interpretation of an observation language is determined by the theories that we use to explain what we observe, and it changes as soon as those theories change (1958a, 163).
A semantics for a language provides, in particular, an account of how the truth value of a given sentence of the language is determined in a model by the meanings of its semantically significant component parts, notably, the meanings of its names, predicates, and quantifiers.
On Feyerabend's view, because the nature of objects depends on the most advanced theories about them, and because the meaning of observation statements depends on the nature of those objects, the interpretation of an observation language is determined by the theories we use to explain what we observe.
The properties of an E-language are determined by how an I-language is used, and as such their systematic characterization in a theory will be practically impossible.
