pos: adj
tags: alternative
Senses:
gloss: Not compositional.
pos: adj
examples: Any natural language processing system that does not have a knowledge of non-compositional idioms and their interpretation will make mistakes. Previous authors have attempted to automatically identify these expressions through the property of non-substitutability: similar words cannot be successfully substituted for words in non-compositional idiom expressions without changing their meaning.
The recognition and accurate translation of proper nouns, many of which are bilingually non-compositional, are a major issue in MT and other NLP applications. This is especially true for Chinese and Japanese, whose scripts present linguistic and algorithmic challenges not found in other languages.
An idiom is defined as a non-compositional multiword expression, one whose meaning cannot be deduced from the definitions of the component words.

gloss: A self-imposed challenge where the player can only catch the first wild Pokémon encountered in each area, and any caught Pokémon that faints cannot be used again.
pos: noun
tags: slang
examples: Here are the rules for a Nuzlocke:
• If a Pokemon faints, it’s dead. You need to release it, store it in a box for the rest of the run, or transfer it to another game. You can’t use it until you’ve successfully become the Pokemon League Champion and completed the Nuzlocke.
• You can only catch the first Pokemon you encounter in each location. This includes caves, towns, routes, and so on - if the area has an official title, it counts as an independent location where you can capture one single Pokemon, provided it’s the first one you come across. If you make it faint or it flees, you can’t catch a new one - no second chances. This doesn’t apply to static encounters, although using Legendary Pokemon is frowned upon. You can catch Shiny Pokemon regardless of the rules, although the consensus on whether or not they’re allowed to be used is widely disputed.

Be Madonna-Like and Vogue […] I challenge you to channel your inner rock star—in this case, Madonna. One of the talents that Madonna (and performers of all types) master is to seize the stage with an air of confidence.
And there is a great deal to be said about [Anna] Netrebko and [Edita] Gruberová after the 2000s, including the deep sense of loss one feels when a figure like Gruberová prepares to leave the stage, and the curiosity – mixed with skepticism – that I personally feel about Netrebko’s new career phase, which on the one hand seems like a genuine maturing and on the other has aspects of a more self-conscious, Madonna-like reinvention.

pos: adj

examples: Much of Urdu's vocabulary is of Perso-Arabic origin.
The attitude towards Persian and Arabic vocabulary in India, and Bollywood songs in particular, is entirely different. While puristic tendencies are not unknown in Hindi (especially the re-Sanskritisation movement), we see no powerful drive to eradicate the lexica of Perso-Arabic origin, and the present work proves this on the basis of Bollywood songs’ texts.
In contemporary literary Hindi there is an abundance of Perso-Arabic loanwords which often function similarly to words of Sanskrit origin.
Now what I noticed in today’s news broadcasts was that although often the Punjabi and the Urdu broadcasts use the same Perso-Arabic words for the same meaning in the same stories, in some places they use different words as well […]

pos: adj

examples: The Perso-Arabic script is a writing system used in several Eastern languages.
Until 1929, Azerbaijani had been written in the Perso-Arabic script, reflecting two critical roots of the modern Azerbaijani language and identity. First, it signified the enduring presence of Islam, which reached Azerbaijan in the 7th century and gave rise to a rich Islamic intellectual tradition, particularly through the teachings of the Quran in Arabic. Second, the use of this script reflected the significant impact of Persian, the language of Iran, which shaped Azerbaijani culture and literature during the centuries when Azerbaijan was part of the Persian dynasties until Russia annexed it in the early 1800s

examples: Again, it is necessary to stress that non-aristotelian does not mean anti-aristotelian, just as non-newtonian physics is not anti-newtonian physics. […] Given these revolutions in science and mathematics, Korzybski reasoned that it was long past time for a revolution in reason itself, time for a new manner of thought, and he chose non-aristotelian to complement the new non-newtonian science and the non-euclidean mathematics of the early 20th century. Had he been working a half century later, during the late 20th century period that saw the introduction of poststructuralism and postmodernism, not to mention the postindustrial, the postliterate, and the posthuman, he almost certainly would have chosen the term post-aristotelian instead; after all, his emphasis was on the need to move forward, not to eliminate the past. For Korzybski, general semantics was central to this effort, but at the same time his introduction to non-aristotelian systems opens up a new area of exploration that he left to others to continue, an area we might refer to as non-aristotelian studies.
