Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

After hundreds of years’ development, Canadian English has become a true national language and has its national identity. Due to the historical and regional factors, most of the language features of Canadian English are found in either British English or American English, and sometimes in both. It is the particular combinations of these features that set apart Canadian English. While culturally and politically independent, Canadians have a very distinctive variety of English; different from Br. E and Am. E in terms of vocabulary, syntax, pronunciation, etc, Canadian English has developed into a unique variety of English. In addition, a lot of borrowings from other languages form another part of the unique Canadian vocabulary and reflect important aspects of the experience of the Canadian people. As a unique linguistic phenomenon as well as a national language, it is quite certain that Canadian English should develop in its own way.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

How this classification was reachedexpand

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
