Learning Exercise 1 
====================

Assigning SAL Codes to Nouns
----------------------------

This learning exercise assumes that you as yet know very little about SAL noun coding.  It's designed to let you learn SAL coding inductively.   If you complete this exercise and the ones that follow successfully, you will be ready to proceed to the section called "Test Your Knowledge."  If you do well on those tests, you may consider yourself a qualified SAL coder!

This exercise introduces you to each of the SAL Noun Supersets, one by one, via a series of tables.  Each table presents a group of nouns all belonging to the same Superset.  However, the SAL set and subset codes for these nouns, and the mnemonic which expresses them, are not shown.  These are for you to supply.  But your task is made easy for you. To discover how each noun is coded, click on the noun and you will be taken to a description and explanation of the SAL set and subset code (and the corresponding mnemonic) which applies.

By the time you have gone through these exercises, you will have covered the entire SAL taxonomy for nouns.

Note, however, that these exercises do not cover so-called "process nouns" (noun deverbals).  Process nouns, e.g, words like removal, consolidation, altercation, specialization, are derived from verbs and are convertible to verbs, and for this reason are automatically assigned the codes of their corresponding verbs.  Process nouns then are not part of the open class.

If you're just starting and are as yet unfamiliar with the basic Superset/set/subset structure of the SAL taxonomy for nouns, or with the SAL taxonomy in general, see :ref:`basic-concepts-regarding-sal`.

.. _exercise-1a:

Exercise A - Concrete Noun Superset
-----------------------------------

To do this exercise, in the white box enter the mnemonic code for each of the nouns.  Those mnemonic codes can be found by clicking on the noun.  You will be taken to the section in the tutorial describing the noun in question and its correct SAL mnemonic code.
