In the 1960s linguist William Stokoe created the first writing system for a sign language, the so-called Stokoe notation, which he designed specifically for ASL.

This section draws upon the ideas, language and notation of canonical quantization of a quantum field theory.

* ABC notation, a language for notating music using the ASCII character set

* ABC notation, a musical notation language

Either approach is adequate for most uses, provided that one attends to the necessary changes in language, notation, and the definitions of concepts like restrictions, composition, inverse relation, and so on.

This became a standard feature of computer languages, and the notation for grammars used in concrete descriptions of computer languages came to be known as Backus-Naur Form, after two members of the Algol language design committee.

Because different writing systems require different parts of the brain to process the visual notation of speech, children with reading problems in one language might not have a reading problem in a language with a different orthography.

Postfix notation makes the language easier to parse and extend ; Forth's flexibility makes a static BNF grammar inappropriate, and it does not have a monolithic compiler.

Examples of ideograms include wayfinding signs, such as in airports and other environments where many people may not be familiar with the language of the place they are in, as well as Arabic numerals and formal languages ( mathematical notation, logic, UML ), which are used worldwide regardless of how they are pronounced in different languages.

Gosling aimed to implement a virtual machine and a language that had a familiar C / C ++ style of notation.

He showed that with a few simple operators and a notation for functions, one can build a Turing-complete language for algorithms.

Some writers have attempted to defuse the issue by referring to the language as M, square brackets being the customary notation for optional syntax elements.

Another style of notation, rarely used in English, uses the suffix " is " to indicate a sharp and " es " ( only " s " after A and E ) for a flat, e. g. Fis for F, Ges for G, Es for E. This system first arose in Germany and is used in almost all European countries whose main language is not English or a Romance language.

Operator overloading is claimed to be useful because it allows the developer to program using notation " closer to the target domain " and allows user-defined types a similar level of syntactic support as types built into the language.

A programming language is a notation for writing programs, which are specifications of a computation or algorithm.

The language syntax uses reverse Polish notation, which makes the order of operations unambiguous, but reading a program requires some practice, because one has to keep the layout of the stack in mind.

The programming language is augmented with natural language description details, where convenient, or with compact mathematical notation.

For instance, in the C language notation is a syntactic sugar for.

As Sutton was teaching DanceWriting to the Royal Danish Ballet, Lars von der Lieth, who was doing research on sign language at the University of Copenhagen, thought it would be useful to use a similar notation for the recording of sign languages.

Movement notation gets quite complex, and because it is more exact than it needs to be for any one sign language, different people may choose to write the same sign in different ways.

The Afroasiatic language family was originally referred to as " Hamito-Semitic ", a term introduced in the 1860s by the German scholar Karl Richard Lepsius.

The term " Altaic ", as the name for a language family, was introduced in 1844 by Matthias Castrén, a pioneering Finnish philologist who made major contributions to the study of the Uralic languages.

The Turkish language and the Islamic religion were gradually introduced as a result of the Seljuk conquest, and this period marks the start of Anatolia's slow transition from predominantly Christian and Indo-European and Semitic-speaking, to predominantly Muslim and Turkish-speaking ( Although some ethnic groups such as Armenians, Greeks, Assyrians and Georgians retained Christianity and their native languages ).

As a language of deaf education, ASL has been introduced to numerous countries, where it has often diverged into a separate dialect.

The English language was first introduced to the Americas by British colonization, beginning in 1607 in Jamestown, Virginia.

Common alphabets were introduced and allowed for the uniformity of language across large distances.

The concept of context-sensitive grammar was introduced by Noam Chomsky in the 1950s as a way to describe the syntax of natural language where it is indeed often the case that a word may or may not be appropriate in a certain place depending upon the context.

" However, in the case of the so-called Nilo-Hamitic languages ( a concept he introduced ), it was based on the typological feature of gender and a " fallacious theory of language mixture.

One form of this widespread language is used in Daniel and Ezra, but the use of the name " Chaldee " to describe it, first introduced by Jerome, is incorrect and a misnomer.

He introduced the representation of language families as an evolutionary tree in articles published in 1853.

Danish was introduced as the main language, whilst Faroese was discouraged.

Lisp introduced many features now found in functional languages, though Lisp is technically a multi-paradigm language.

They also introduced the Spanish language and culture.

In one speech, he started speaking in Latin and, as he described each simplification, introduced it into his speech so that by the end he was talking in his new language.

* XML with the XLink extension – A newer hypertext markup language that extends and expands capabilities introduced by HTML.

They introduced the Old English language, which displaced the previous British language.

Java applets were introduced in the first version of the Java language in 1995, and are written in programming languages that compile to Java bytecode, usually in Java, but also in other languages such as Jython, JRuby, or Eiffel ( via SmartEiffel ).

In contrast to the Northern Italian language, southern Italian dialects and languages were largely untouched by the Franco-Occitan influences introduced to Italy, mainly by bards from France, during the Middle Ages but, after the Norman conquest of southern Italy, Sicily became the first Italian land to adopt Occitan lyric moods ( and words ) in poetry.

Italian was also introduced to Somalia through colonialism and was the sole official language of administration and education during the colonial period but declined after government, educational and economic infrastructure was destroyed in the Somali Civil War.

In the English language, the word " individualism " was first introduced, as a pejorative, by the Owenites in the late 1830s, although it is unclear if they were influenced by Saint-Simonianism or came up with it independently.

With certain modifications, the most important of which were introduced later by Aasen himself, but also through a latter policy aiming to merge this Norwegian language with Dano-Norwegian, this language has become Nynorsk (" New Norwegian "), the second of Norway's two official languages ( the other being Bokmål, the Dano-Norwegian descendant of the Danish language used in Norway at Aasen's time ).
