Lambek calculus

Lambek calculus is a mathematical framework used to model how words combine to form meaningful sentences in language. It treats words as objects that follow specific rules for merging, similar to how puzzle pieces fit together. This system captures the structure of grammar, showing how different words and phrases relate and combine logically. It’s especially useful in linguistics and computer science for understanding syntax and building language-processing tools, ensuring that sentence constructions follow consistent logical patterns. Essentially, it provides a formal way to analyze and verify the grammatical correctness of language.
