Annotation
In this paper, H. argues that all human discourse can be seen to form partially coherent and linguistically describable nets, the existence of which may be of relevance to certain central questions about knowledge transference and text interpretation. It may also help explain the pervasiveness of collocation and support belief in a mechanism for language acquisition.
