Do you use a pronoun more often when the entity you’re talking about is more predictable?
Previous work offers diverging answers so we conducted a meta-analysis, combining data from 20 studies across 8 different languages.
Now out in Language: muse.jhu.edu/article/969615

Conclusion: for communication in-context,
Lexical systems with a soft mapping between referents and names let speakers maximize communication accuracy while minimizing complexity.

We explored, for a color naming task, why a soft mapping between referents and words is a good solution for communication...
...by taking into account
1⃣ in-context communication
2⃣ the hierarchical structure of the lexicon

🔊New EMNLP paper from Eleonora Gualdoni & @gboleda.bsky.social !
Why do objects have many names?
Human lexicons contain different words that speakers can use to refer to the same object, e.g., purple or magenta for the same color.
We investigate using tools from efficient coding...🧵
