The Almighty Allah has gifted you knowledge just like an ocean. Thanks a million again, prof. I really appreciate your time and you ❤️ I am learning a lot from you.
Wouldn't it be right to say: "John wrote a postcard and to Mary" if the context specified that you cannot write a postcard to Mary because she, for examplel, does not have a mailbox in front of her house?
i would like to ask about the discovery procedures, what are they ??? what is a discovery procedure ? is it a theory created by bloomfield ?? thank you very much about this awesome video it was so informative and simple to understand, but is there a connection between these constituent tests and discovery procedures. i am not sure but i think discovery procedres have to do with bloomfield and harris! i would LOVE an explanation on discovery procedures PLEASE! and god bless youu
No North Am English L 1 would say 'took up' (which was a phrasal verb and not a locative as your other example). North Am English would only use 'picked up the phone.' The differences between 'took' and 'picked' have some very different semantic primes at their bases.
This was a helpful video. It left me with some questions though. When conducting a test, how is grammaticality checked? Is the opinion of just one native speaker sufficient? What should be done if different native speakers make different grammaticality judgements? Is grammaticality binary, or on a continuum? (Sometimes things can sound strange, but not outright wrong.) How general are these tests? Do they apply to all languages?
Grammaticallity is defined differently by a lot of speakers, but it can be summed up as a sentence whose structure does not create a sementic meaning that could be properly interpreted by the usual speaker. For the most part though, you can usually just sense it, but keep in mind your sense will be different from another speaker's. I'd say it's more on a continuum than binary. There are a few "sentences" which could easily be marked ungrammatical without account for variation among speakers though, such as "The and cat dog why is are him to do that bring being", but that's obviously ridiculous, and you'd only really encounter such a sentence if you REALLY mess up at generative syntax.

I am learning a lot from you.
Yay! The full length videos are back! ::excited:: I cannot get enough of this channel!
Danke sehr! Diese Vorlesungen bringen Licht in die Dunkelheit!
distributional tests {preposing / postposing / sentence fragments} other tests {coordination / proform / ellipsis} thank you! ♡
10:35 You can remember them using this word: FANBOYS, for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so :)
Thanks a lot that's really useful
Thank you so much for your simple and very informative explanations. Please keep posting other vedios.
15:37 Isn't "took up" a phrasal verb? shouldn't it be its own constituent?
Best of the best
ı use syntax tree open source software.

Is there any specific definition of constitutent
