Counting Principles and Techniques
Fundamental Counting Principle
Fundamental Counting Principle: If a task or process is made up of stages with separate (distinct) choices at each stage, the total number of choices is m × n × p × …, where m is the number of choices at the first stage, n is the number of choices at the second stage, and so forth.

Phonetics and Phonology: The Science of Speech
Phonetics analyzes the sounds of speech and how they are produced. It is the physical aspect of the sound. For example, it studies how we position the lips for pronunciation. Phonology is a branch of linguistics that studies sounds as abstract units inside a system. The objective is to understand how sounds are useful for distinguishing meanings. For example, in English, /p/ and /b/ are phonemes; we can differentiate between words like bad and pat.

N-Gram Models and Statistical Language Modeling
N-Gram Models: Unigram, Bigram, and Trigram
An N-Gram Model is a statistical language model that predicts the next word based on the previous
words.
Types of N-Grams
Unigram (N=1)
Considers each word independently.
Example sentence: I love NLP
Unigrams:
- I
- love
- NLP
Probability:
Bigram (N=2)
Considers one previous word.
Bigrams:
- I love
- love NLP
Probability:
Trigram (N=3)
Considers two previous words.
Trigrams:
- I love NLP
Probability:
Applications of N-Grams
- Text prediction
- Spell checking
- Speech recognition
- Machine translation
- Chatbots
