Your videos are amazing! You teach better than my teacher!!! Thanks for everything man 🙏🏻🤧
Thank you so much, You are an excellent Tutor
Your explanation is awesome!!
Thank you so much 👌🏻
I have got some clarity on TPs looking forward to watch more videos b4 my exams 🥹
Thank you, you're saving my life :D
Great, great chunks of information. I watch these every night...i would ask, however, whether the V should really be "be," the uninflected basal infinitive
Yeah I think so it should not be "is"
How would you annotate nonstandard *"he bes something/someone"?
Very instructive
could you please explain the feature percolation?
THANK YOU
Do you have videos about limitations of PSR sir. ?
What a calm presentation! Nicely explained. Thank you.
Thank u so much
I really regret taking Linguistics now.
Do you use a certain kind of software when you draw your trees ? Btw very good video, it’s interesting to see how a langage other than one’s mother tongue works since in french we don’t use TP but IP then VP (with VP as sister of I’). When we have a simple form of a verb, we put the conjugated verb under "I" and a trace under "V" and when there is a composed form, the auxiliary is under "I" and the participle is put under "V"
I was thinking the same thing, in portuguese we use IP for finite verbal inflections, we can use T to mark tense and Agr to mark the agreement, but both T and Agr are "inside" the IP, maybe (I think) I'm actually not really sure anymore lol
in the second example you simply write he as the dp of T,,whereas its dp of vp and after getting the trace it has to move up in the position of dp of Tp
Hello..how do I know when to use cp and tp
Well I'm confused about the differences between TPs and CPs now... Can I generalise that CP is a sentence starting with 'that', 'if' 'whether' or 'null', and CP is usually on a higher level than a TP if they are both dominated by the same VP? (I got it wrong when I tried to draw a tree for [that James is wrong]).
Thank you in advance!
CPs dominate TPs, which in turn dominate VPs (a C-T-V order). C = complementizer, a closed set of head items that 1. turn the TPs they dominate into nominalised complements that are amenable to replacement tests (like the one- and so-replacements), which means they allow for embedding extra information inside a clause, and 2. 'modify' a whole clause from the outside e.g. turning a statement into a question. Examples of C would be: that, if, wh- items, the +Q feature. You're on the right track.
Do all DPs now go under T even if they're not the subject?
Can we put "S" as the top nod insteaf?
Can we have (+present) for the sentence "he walks" if not (-past)
I don't know why did you write [+past] for the second tense but you wrote the verb be in the present form? Why didn't you write it in the past form?
What abt future plus and minus example?
What is the reason that T and T and VP are not switched when the tense is indicated with a suffix? And what if the verb also indicates an aspect, like in Russian?
i believe if it were switched, the T would come all the way after the complements and adjuncts of the VP - try the sentence “he walked in the park” like this- if they were swapped “-ed” would come all the way after “in the park”
Hello. can a TP portrays adjunct? if yes could you please assist with an example, thank you
A CP can as a subordinate clause [because I want to leave], I paid my bill. Not sure about a TP on its own given X-Bar theory.
@@Trevtutor thank you
Just a little confusion. When is it [-Q] and when [+Q] for C? Why is it [-Q] here?
And in the last diagram for the sentence, should it not be "was" under V becaue the T is [+PAST]? Thank you.
+Q occurs if it's a question.
It is "was", just not necessarily written as "was". +past + "is" will be produce "was".
+TheTrevTutor Thanks Trev
thank uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu !
There is a little confusion in the last V why there is "is" there should be base form of verb i.e. "be"
Is to a tense like i _to win_ ?
How the adj (right) modifies the verb (was) ?
Khadijah Khalid it doesn’t modify it, it is its complement.
Can I replace the entire TPs with S ? Plz I need to know as soon as possible
Not in a syntax tree following x-bar theory. The tense information must be in something, and it would sound weird/wrong to say SP -> S', -> S. right? So in this theory every sentence begins as a CP, not a TP. The only thing is that CP's are silent on the main clauses, so you just begin drawing the TP, or the IP as it's also called.
Okay, I have 2 questions:
1. I am a native Turkish speaker and I don't think Turkish makes a difference between past/non-past or future/non-future tenses. We don't have any auxiliary verbs to indicate tenses, they are all morphemes. So, how do we give tense information under T?
2. Do we still need to write down "[-Q]" even if we already wrote "that" or "∅"?
Well turkish is one of the few languages that has both a past and a future tense form. And I came here to ask the same thing as well. Probably though we use + tense for whatever the tense is.
@@ninjasaga4703 It's been 2 years so I forgot that I asked this question haha. Right now (quite literally) I'm writing a thesis on Turkish verbal inflectional morphology and after reading countless papers written on the subject, I believe I can answer my own question:
Turkish seems to be a past/non-past language as well. What we call the "future tense" marker might actually be analyzed as an aspect/mood marker instead. Turkish has only two genuinely verbal simple forms: -DI and -sA, the definite past and the conditional respectively.
If you are interested in the subject, I suggest reading Kornfilt (specifically "On Copular Clitic Forms in Turkish", 1996) and Yavaş ("The Turkish Future Marker", 1980).
How we can draw a tree diagram for this sentence " they must have been driving their car very fast " THANK YOU
Yeah, same question I have too. How do you stack the auxiliaries?
Do you still want the answer?
@@omaimaarfan3467 I do want it
Omaima GR my book does it by adding V’ level for each and every auxiliary with the auxiliary verb being the head of each V’ projection. I hope this makes sense cuz I couldn’t upload a photo of the tree diagram here
Why we need TP and CP?
CP means complementizer phrase ( that - if - whether)
Verb phrases don't include CP... Buh you are including it
They can. Otherwise we wouldn’t have embedded clauses.
