Some examples

On clarity of the Some examples: Insert the Table (1)and explanation to show how English is an example of a head-initial language to follow logically from the end of the Head order vs. word order section, either at the end of the section or the beginning of Some examples. After that, it would be helpful to understand the direction you are taking to show opposition to this view, in that languages do not fall so neatly into one or the other category (dichotomy) before you give examples. It is confusing because you state some exceptions before you give the English example. This sentence does not contribute at this stage of the argument: "For example, English, German, and Japanese each construct verb phrases in different ways" and is followed by 'consider the example', which is confusing so could be removed. Say what the whole thing means after alluding to French. As the heading is "some examples", it would be good to have at least one more example in this section other than the English.

Great work!

Hi, I'm Eryk from the Wiki Education Foundation. I happened to notice the really great work you did on the lexical semantics article! I wondered if you'd be interested in sharing some of your experiences working on this site for our blog? We could use your real name or your Wikipedia username. We find students like to participate since it gives them a pretty positive search result related to the field they're studying in. If you have a minute, you can drop me an e-mail at eryk@wikiedu.org, mention your username and what course you were in, and answer any of the following questions, and I'd be excited to get some attention directed toward your good work.

1. What are your goals (career or academics wise?)
2. Did you have any experience with Wikipedia before the class started? What did you think of Wikipedia before you started work on this assignment?
3. How did you find the process of writing a Wikipedia article, compared to if you had written a traditional paper on the topic?
4. Do you think you learned more about your subject as a result of writing for Wikipedia? What kind of work did you have to do, or do differently, that you may not have needed to do otherwise?
5. Do you think you'll come back to Wikipedia now that the course is finished?

Thanks for your time! Eryk (Wiki Ed) (talk) 18:13, 9 January 2015 (UTC)
