    In this question or other the same examples, Have they made their decision to jump?
    Moving the T (have) to C, will the Af (since it's made and written as make in V, hence the have+AF in T) directed at verb remain at T? or should there be a line drawn to V (affix hopping)?

  • @Oki-kage

    You say it’s grammar that makes this movement, so would that mean there are languages other than English than say, moving the progressive up into T is the proper way, or instead of moving the closest the rule is you move the furthest up?

    well i didn' t get it very well bcz our prof explained it in completely different way . what s the role of transformational rules ? is it to transform the structure sentence so that we can analyse it with phrase structure grammar ?

    • @Trevtutor
      @Trevtutor  6 лет назад +1

      It's to look at the relationship between deep structure and surface structure. We build sentences usually as declaratives with verb arguments originating next to verbs. Then, we transform our structure for questions, embedding, etc.

    Why do we have to pull the verb have under T ? It's neither a modal verb nor a tense

    • @demidron.
      @demidron. 2 года назад

      It's a finite auxiliary verb though. Any verb that can be fronted for a question will move to T. So for example, the "have" in "You have seen it," moves into T. Being in T makes it available to be fronted to C for a question.
      "Have" is also a non-auxiliary verb in other contexts, for example when you say "You had fun." We can't say *"Had you fun?" (at least in most dialects of modern English), so we know that that "had" does not move to "T" as it is not available for fronting. Instead, all that happens is that the tense information from T is sent down to give us the right form of "have" → "had". To form a question from "You had fun", we put the dummy verb "do" in the T node. It absorbs the tense information in T, becoming "did" and thereby preventing "have" from changing to "had" (we can use this for emphasis: "You did have fun!"). The question is then formed by pulling this "did" from T into C: "Did you have fun."
      Basically, to know whether a verb moves into T, just ask yourself if that verb gets moved to the front for questions. If it does, move it to T. If it doesn't, leave it where it is in V. Also, when we negate verbs, you can see a difference too. "You *have not* seen it," vs. "You *did not have* fun." The "not" can only occur after T, so it occurs directly after verbs that move to T, but with verbs that don't move to T, we have to insert "do" (in the correct tense) at T.

    I thought TP doesn't have T'? Can 'will' just be under a category of Aux? If so, does it complement N'?

    • @Trevtutor
      @Trevtutor  6 лет назад

      TP has a T' and a T head. There is no category 'Aux' in most X' theories.
      TP has modals in T. PerfP has perfect "have" in Perf, and ProgP has progressive "be" in Prog.

    I'd like to ask, what is the ti and Ci?

    • @demidron.
      @demidron. 2 года назад

      tᵢ is the trace showing the original position of the moved constituent. The ᵢ is added to C there to show that that's where it ended up so you can see where it came from. In a tree, I suppose it's not entirely necessary as arrows are often used to show movement unambiguously, but it's useful for showing the location of traces and movement, when writing a sentence linearly rather than treeing it, e.g. "Willᵢ you *tᵢ* leave?" Check out the section "Traces" in the Wikipedia article on Syntactic movement.

      My prof. asked me to prepare the rules of auxiliary inversion and the critics given to transformational grammar by Noam Chomsky . Is it the same with this ?

    What if I say he does dance?

    • @Trevtutor
      @Trevtutor  7 месяцев назад

      Then you have -Q in C and you have no movement. “Does” appears under T as *emphatic* do.
