The Noun Complement: #8 The Nine Forms

- NOTE: At 1:26, I said "Proper Name" because in this application, the Proper NOUN is actually a Proper NAME.
ERROR ALERT: At 2:42, I SHOULD have said “NOUN,” NOT “name.” (At 3:03, I corrected myself.)
ERROR ALERT: At 8:01, I SHOULD have said “NAME,” NOT “noun.”
I apologize AGAIN for all of the many, many verbal errors that I’ve made in my videos, over the years. For about ten years or so, I’ve had a problem: Though I can ordinarily comprehend what I read, I can NOT always correctly SPEAK aloud the word that I’m looking at. For example, I might clearly SEE the word “Name,” yet, when I go to SPEAK it, it might come out “Noun”-or some other god-awful blooper.
To me, there are NINE structures that can function as a Noun Complement:
(1) Prepositional Phrase
(2) Infinitive Phrase
(3) Noun Clause
(4) Proper Noun
(5) Name Complement #1a
(6) Name Complement #1b
(7) Name Complement #2
(8) Distinction Phrase/Clause (formerly: Relative clause)
(9) Adjective/Adjective Phrase
Proper Noun: The PROPER NOUN complements a COMMON NOUN.
Name Complement #1a: The PROPER NAME complements a PROPER NAME.
Name Complement #1b: The PROPER NOUN complements a PROPER NAME.
Name Complement #2: The PROPER NAME/COMPOUND PROPER NAME complements a FAMILY NAME.
Technically, for Noun Complement #5, you COULD simply state the rule as such:
"A PROPER NOUN complements a PROPER NAME." You COULD simply leave it at that. That is, the rule would adequately cover both the terms NOUN and NAME-because a Proper NAME, after all, IS a Proper NOUN. However, in this video, I'm trying to show that a Proper NOUN does NOT always function categorically as a Proper NAME. - Видеоклипы
