In defence of sublinguistics
Ave Wrigley · Interacting with Computers · 1993
The paper is a response to the argument presented by Jussi Karlgren that the term sublanguage involves a potentially damaging misunderstanding in human-computer interaction research. The use of the term in the context of a mathematical concept of language as a set is defended. The definition of language in terms of probability and the use of domain context to condition probabilities is suggested as a refinement to this concept.
