What is it about?
This paper presents several models of equations useful for Natural Language Processing. In this regard, a formal language for the analysis of sentences is used in order to introduce four prototypes of linguistic syncretism derived from the universal sentence equation; afterwards, we adopt another approach to explore the different structures of which every sentence is composed. Eventually, all these processes will lead to the archetypal pattern of what will be called 'computational thought'.

Why is it important?
It shows a way of encoding a sentence in order to formulate general equations valid for every language. At the same time, this paper sets out what can be defined as ‘computational thought’ by means of the aforementioned equations, which constitute the bridge between the field of neurolinguistics and that of artificial intelligence.
Perspectives
This research introduces equations into the field of Linguistics in an innovative manner, which can enable us to better understand the functioning of human mind and, especially, to also improve its manifestation in an artificial way.
