Abstract(in English) | We propose a method to quantify syntactic information(word order, conjugation, etc)using information theory. We compute the actual values of various syntactic features of German and English. The result quantitatively shows that, for German, the declination of noun phrases and the conjugation of verbs contain a larger amount of syntactic information. However, for English, the word order contains larger information. |
