Abstract
This chapter will provide a platform to showcase the more recent developments that have grown out of the early laid groundwork. The latest theories in the field of linguistics will be presented, based on empirical data taken from naturally occurring language. In particular, the lexical priming theory will be introduced as a way to explain structures of language that corpus linguists have uncovered. Furthermore, the chapter will discuss the development of increasingly sophisticated algorithms that also deal with the use of language. Here, the focus will be on key achievements in the 1980s by IBM which created a solid foundation for applications that are now widely used in mobile and desktop devices—namely “assistants” like Amazon’s Echo, Apple’s SIRI or Google’s (and Android’s) Google Go.
