Python Can Write Your Linguistics Paper For You

  1. Install the ReportLab pdf creation toolkit from http://www.reportlab.org/downloads.html.
  2. Do this a few times:

    ~~~~ {lang="python"}

    from reportlab.lib import randomtext randomtext.chomsky(times=5) ~~~~

    "Presumably, the speaker-hearer's linguistic intuition can be defined in such a way as to impose problems of phonemic and morphological analysis. In the discussion of resumptive pronouns following (81), a subset of English sentences interesting on quite independent grounds delimits the levels of acceptability from fairly high (e.g. (99a)) to virtual gibberish (e.g. (98d)). From C1, it follows that relational information suffices to account for the strong generative capacity of the theory. On the other hand, this selectionally introduced contextual feature delimits the traditional practice of grammarians. To provide a constituent structure for T(Z,K), the systematic use of complex symbols does not affect the structure of a descriptive fact."

Almost as nonsensical as Lorem Ipsum.
