separate

Use when turning a linguistic pattern into a theoretically grounded claim for a Language (LSA) manuscript — an analysis with explicit assumptions, observable predictions, and engagement across competing frameworks rather than inside one formalism. Structures the argument; it does not gloss data or run the statistics.

When to use

• turning a linguistic pattern into a theoretically grounded claim
• structuring the argument for a Language manuscript
• making analysis predictions explicit and testable
• surfacing implicit theoretical claims from fieldwork or corpus work
• engaging alternatives from different linguistic traditions

When not to use

• glossing data
• running statistics
