1. A computer implemented method for processing language input comprising the steps of:

  • using at least one processor to perform;

    determining at least two possible meanings for a language input;

    determining a first probability that a first possible meaning of the at least two possible meanings is a correct interpretation of said language input;

    determining a second probability that a second possible meaning of the at least two possible meanings is a correct interpretation of said language inputcomputing at least one relative delta computation comprising a value derived at least in part on a difference between at least the first probability and the second probability, the difference divided by a denominator based on the first probability;

    detecting at least one irregularity within said language input based upon said relative delta computation; and

    performing at least one programmatic action responsive to detecting said irregularity.
