A key notion of lexical cohesion is the concept of semantic field or general area of meaning. Lexical Cohesion Discourse Analysis –Lecture 4 Definition •Lexical cohesion refers to the ties created between lexical elements, such as words and phrases. Lexical cohesion is expressed by a set of lexicogrammatical systems that use specific resources in order to pass across the boundaries of the clause. Cohesion arises when the interpretation of one language element depends on that of another. The form will be described as follows. We present a method for detecting and correcting many such errors by identifying tokens that are semantically unrelated to their context and are spelling variations of words that would be related to the context. Lexical Cohesion
