Why did Ylvis use “go” instead of “say” in phrases like “Dog goes 'woof'”?












5















Why did Ylvis use the verb "go" instead of "say" in their song "What Does the Fox Say?"




Dog goes "woof."

Cat goes "meow."

Bird goes "tweet."




Is there some specific meaning for "go"?

    Note that Ylvis is Norwegian; to me, Dog goes "woof" sounds like a non-native-speaker's approximation of a child's book, not something a native speaker would say – the dog goes "woof" or dogs go "woof" would be OK, but this form sounds awkward.

  • @michael.hor257k I'm open to the possibility of dialect differences here, but I'm not sure I'd take the lyrics of an old folk song as evidence for what modern Kentuckians would find acceptable in speech.

go

9. Informal To say or utter. Used chiefly in verbal narration: First I go, "Thank you," then he goes, "What for?"



American Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language




Examples that show the usage extends to describing sounds that people, animals or things make:




I fly into JFK

My heart goes boom boom boom

I know that customs man

He’s going to take me

To that little room



from Paranoia Blues by Paul Simon







And the colored girls go

Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo

    A nitpick: "My heart goes boom boom boom" (also seen in Peter Gabriel's "Solsbury Hill") is really not something someone said or uttered. If a heart or a drum goes "boom" it's just a sound made by an action. I'd suggest your answer would be improved by a different example.

    For your second set of lyrics, I think "Wheels on the Bus" (the horn on the bus goes beep-beep-beep/the driver on the bus goes 'move on back'/the baby on the bus goes 'wah wah wah') would be an improvement on that example.

How to label and detect the document text images

Image
1 $begingroup$ This is what I mean as document text image: I want to label the texts in image as separate blocks and my model should detect these labels as classes. NOTE: This is how the end result should be like: The labels like Block 1, Block 2, Block 3,.. should be Logo, Title, Date,.. Others, etc. Work done: First approach : I tried to implement this method via Object Detection, it didn't work. It didn't even detect any text. Second approach : Then I tried it using PixelLink. As this model is build for scene text detection, it detected each and every text in the image. But this method can detect multiple lines of text if the threshold values are increased. But I have no idea how do I add labels to the text blocks. PIXEL_CLS_WEIGHT_all_ones = 'PIXEL_CLS_WEIGHT_all_ones' PIXEL_C...

Tabula Rosettana

Image
Tabula multilinguis Rosettana in Museo Britannico ostenditur. Tabula Rosettana, [1] etiam titulo OGIS 90 agnita, est stela decreto de rebus sacris in Aegypto anno 196 a.C.n. lato inscripta. Tabula iuxta Rosettam Aegypti, urbem in delta Nili et ad oram maris Mediterranei iacentem, anno 1799 a milite Francico reperta est. Inventio stelae, linguis duabus scripturisque tribus inscriptae, eruditis Instituti Aegypti statim nuntiata est; ibi enim iussu imperatoris Napoleonis eruditi omnium scientiarum (sub aegide Commissionis Scientiarum et Artium) properaverant cum expeditione Francica.
