The document discusses different types of subjects in sentences: agentive subjects are animate actors performing actions; instrumental subjects are inanimate tools causing events; affected subjects experience actions denoted by intransitive or "be" verbs. It also discusses agentive and instrumental subjects with verbs like "have" and "own" denoting possession, and perceptual verbs like "see" and "hear". Recipient subjects receive actions and can be associated with perceptual verbs like "taste", as in "John tasted the soup".

Passive Voice
This document provides an overview of passive voice, including how to form passive sentences and when they are commonly used. It discusses how the passive voice is formed using "to be" plus the past participle. Examples are given of active and passive sentences. Specific uses of the passive voice like in business, describing art/science, and legal matters are outlined. Differences between English and Spanish passive voice are also noted.
Unit 2 week 4
This document provides a review of the zero conditional and past continuous and simple past verb tenses. It includes examples of forms, uses, and exceptions of each tense. It also lists certain verbs that are usually only used in the simple past tense. The document contains grammar exercises for students to practice using the past continuous and simple past correctly. It concludes with a prompt for students to describe what was happening when it started to rain, either working alone or with a partner.
Active and passive voice
The document discusses the differences between active and passive voice. In active voice, the subject performs the action, while in passive voice the subject receives the action. The document provides examples of sentences in both active voice and passive voice, noting that in passive voice the object of the active sentence becomes the subject and the subject becomes the object of the preposition "by".
linguistics 2 - 4th classes - lecture no. 1.pptx
This document provides an overview of pragmatics and context in communication. It defines pragmatics as the study of invisible meaning and how speakers' intended meanings are understood based on context. Context refers to the physical situation and linguistic elements surrounding a communication event. Types of context include physical context relating to time, place, and linguistic context involving other words used. Some words like pronouns and demonstratives rely on context to be understood, as they are examples of deixis that point to people, locations, or times. The document outlines three main types of deixis: person, spatial, and temporal deixis.

Parts of speech - form classes.pptx
Parts of speech are the building blocks of grammar and are classified into nine main categories: noun, verb, adjective, adverb, conjunction, preposition, interjection, article, and pronoun. The document provides details on the definition, identification, and formation of nouns, verbs, adjectives, and adverbs through inflectional and derivational morphemes. Nouns are names of people, places, things, or ideas and can take different roles in a sentence. Verbs express actions and take different forms to express tense. Adjectives describe nouns and pronouns and can be formed through suffixes. Adverbs describe verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs and can be formed through suffixes or
Noun and verb phrases.pptx
Noun and verb phrases are the two main constituents of English sentences. A noun phrase contains a head noun and any modifiers, and functions as a noun within the sentence. A verb phrase contains a head verb and any auxiliaries, modifiers, or complements, and expresses the action or state of being in the sentence. Many English sentences can be divided into a noun phrase and a verb phrase. The verb must agree with the subject noun or noun phrase in terms of number and person. Auxiliary verbs can affect subject-verb agreement when they precede the main verb.
inflectional Paradigm.pptx
This document discusses different types of paradigms including inflectional paradigms, derivational paradigms, noun paradigms, verb paradigms, and comparative paradigms. An inflectional paradigm is a set of related words that share the same stem but have different inflectional suffixes. A noun paradigm shows the inflected forms of nouns based on number and possession. Verb paradigms display the different forms of a verb based on tense, aspect, mood, and voice. The comparative paradigm outlines the comparative and superlative forms of adjectives and adverbs with the suffixes -er and -est.
Chapter Seven- lecture 12
This document discusses different types of sentences: statements, questions, commands, and exclamations. It describes how questions are formed, including yes-no questions, positive and negative orientation, and tag questions. Yes-no questions can be formed by placing an operator like "is" before the subject or using "do/does/did" before the subject if there is no operator. Tag questions are short yes-no questions added after a statement and take the opposite polarity of the statement with "isn't/aren't" or "is/are". The document also notes tag questions have an assumption from the statement and expectation from the question part.
Chapter Seven - lecture 11
This document discusses negation in English sentences. It explains that to negate a sentence with an auxiliary verb, "not" is added after the auxiliary verb. To negate a sentence without an auxiliary verb, a form of "do" plus "not" is added after the subject. There are also non-assertive forms that do not occur naturally outside of negative, interrogative, or conditional clauses, such as "any", "yet", or "at all". Certain words like "seldom" and "rarely" are negative in meaning but not appearance and take non-assertive forms.
Chapter Seven - lecture 10
The document discusses the vocative case in grammar. The vocative is a nominal element added to a sentence to refer to the person being addressed. It can occur initially, medially, or finally in a sentence. The vocative may take several forms, including a single noun with or without a title, the pronoun "you", terms of family relationship, endearments, titles of respect, marks of profession or status, nominal clauses, or a noun with modifiers. Examples of each type of vocative are provided.
Chapter Seven - lecture 9 part 2
This document discusses different types of subject-verb agreement in English grammar, including:
1. Concord of person between subject and verb (e.g. I am, you are, he is).
2. Subject-complement concord where the verb agrees with the subject (e.g. he is a doctor).
3. Object-complement concord where the complement describes the object (e.g. they elected him chairman).
4. Subject-object concord which requires agreement in number, person, and gender between subject and object or reflexive pronouns (e.g. he injured himself).
5. Pronoun concord where personal or possessive pronouns agree with their
Chapter seven - lecture 9 part 1
This document discusses verb agreement with indefinite pronouns. It notes that the verb can be singular or plural with indefinite expressions of amount. Neither and either can be followed by a singular or plural verb. A prepositional phrase with an indefinite pronoun and plural complement is followed by a plural verb, as are the indefinite pronouns each, every, everybody, anybody, and nobody according to the principle of proximity.
Chapter seven - lecture 8
1. Notional concord refers to agreement of verb with subject based on meaning rather than actual grammatical number. Collective nouns like "the public" are notionally plural but grammatically singular.
2. A coordinated subject consists of two or more noun phrases joined by "and". It can be appositional, where the verb is singular, or non-appositional where reduction is possible and the verb is plural.
3. With coordinated modifiers before a single noun, the verb is plural. A clause composed of two structures takes a plural verb. Agreement depends on number and position of nouns with "either/or" and "neither/nor".
Chapter seven - lecture 7
This document discusses subject-verb agreement in English sentences. It states that the verb must agree with the subject in number, person, and gender. Some exceptions to this rule are then outlined. These include: 1) a clause acting as the subject is singular, 2) a prepositional phrase as subject is singular, 3) "there is/was" takes a singular verb, 4) some singular nouns ending in s are singular, 5) coordinate phrases used as names/titles/quotations are singular, 6) nominal relative clauses are plural, and 7) some nouns without an s inflection are plural. The document concludes by noting titles of some works can be singular or plural.
Chapter Seven - lecture 6
This document discusses different types of subjects and objects in sentences. It defines locative, temporal, and eventive subjects. Locative subjects refer to places, temporal subjects refer to times, and eventive subjects refer to arrangements or activities. It also discusses using the empty "it" as a subject. For objects, it defines affected, locative, cognate, and effected direct objects. It further discusses effected objects that are verbal forms preceded by general verbs. Finally, it defines an indirect object as a "recipient" and can be affected when the sentence has two objects and the verb is give, pay, or owe.
Chapter Seven - lecture 4
The document discusses the different semantic roles that elements in a clause can play. It defines the subject as the animate entity causing the action, the direct object as the affected animate or inanimate entity receiving the action, and the indirect object as the recipient of the action that is not fully affected. It also discusses subject complements and object complements, noting they can be current attributes with stative verbs or resulting attributes with dynamic verbs.
Chapter Seven - lecture 3
This document discusses different sentence structures in English including SVOC, SVO, and SVOO. SVOC structures contain a subject, verb, object, and complement, such as "I imagined her beautiful." SVOO structures contain two objects and can be transformed into SVOA structures by placing the indirect object at the end of the sentence and adding a preposition before it, like changing "She sent John a card" to "She sent a card to John." Prepositions like "with", "of", and "at" can be used before the indirect object depending on the verb.
Chapter Seven - lecture 2
Adverbs can indicate process, place, or time and can be optional or obligatory parts of sentences depending on the clause type. Passive voice is formed by making the object of an active sentence the subject of the passive sentence, using a form of "to be" plus the past participle verb. It is the best example for explaining syntactic transformation, where the active sentence structure of subject-verb-object changes to subject-verbpassive in the passive sentence.
Chapter Seven.pptx
This document discusses different types of clauses and sentences. It defines a simple sentence as having one independent clause that can stand alone, while a complex sentence contains one independent clause and at least one dependent clause. Dependent clauses cannot stand alone as a complete sentence. The document then lists 7 different clause types, including sentences with subjects, verbs, objects, and complements. It provides examples for each clause type and defines subject and object complements as elements that describe the subject or object of the sentence.
