Thanks you so much! I'm in 8th grade, and my teacher tells everyone if we don't understand something, "just google it". She's not helpful and this video really helped me understand this concept! :)
07:08 What about INDIRECT objects? How are they represented on those diagrams? 11:11 So those angled lines are used for infinitives and participles? I presume this is how I draw them too when they modify some word? Oh, and could you explain what's that "that" structure floating above "should theclare", and that weird dashed line connecting "to which" with the baseline of "station"?
@languagedan SmartNotebook. It combines the presentation dynamics of PowerPoint with the interactivity of Paint. It comes packaged with the SmartBoards we use in my district.
A crappy one, apparently, because it requires a lot of clicking to do the most basic things. I'd rather recommend Inkscape. It's free and much more powerful ;)
This is great and cool, yet I cannot see how diagramming helps us in real life. Only middle school, yet I still have somewhat trouble understanding how this is important. Cool tutorial though.
Writing is essential to excellence in communicating. Diagramming sentences is the tool to comprehend it's correct utilization. In a new world of oversimplification of grammar usage, diagramming sentences seems an unnecessary impediment to articulation. Perhaps it is in this context. However, every once in a while someone will say, "I wish I could write and speak this eloquently and sophisticated." Indeed it is rare to have such a promotion inclined to such prose. It, like diagramming sentences, is a dying art form that has run its course, but a few appreciate their nuance.
+Nhung Khuu You'll use it again in college if you major in English. I understand though, outside of the course that requires it, I will never be using it again in my life... EVER lol
Thanks a lot to introduce this useful method to teach to learn English so it is clearly to know it's structure to understand the meaning so you can speak, write to help you to be easy and having interesting to offer the effects.
Well, the simplest example is law. Laws are usually very complex sentences so that people couldn't figure them out and fall to the traps law makers set up for them. Diagramming such complex sentences can help you avoid such traps, because it's like drawing a map of a maze to avoid getting lost in it and seeing your way through it more easily. You can even find some loopholes in laws that way, and that can make you rich ;)
I don't understand why people say those diagrams are very useful. Other than school, where do you use this? I don't get it. It looks like overanalyzing grammar.
People that can see structural relationships, such as those in sentence diagrams, sudoku puzzles, or rubik's cubes, are better at recognizing similar structural relationships in real world situations. Of course, no one would do this in real life, but every student I have had that can diagram well can understand and analyze the development of thought in an essay, speech, or debate better than others. Diagramming is brain training with linguistic models. Nothing trains understanding of ideas as well, except perhaps symbolic logic.
It helps to visualize where the words go. What words belong to what part of speech. This is particularly helpful to non English speakers learning to read and WRITE well in English.
there are several reasons why sentence diagraming is useful 1. diagraming helps you to see the relationship of sentence parts to one another. 2. diagraming sentences sharpens your analytical skills. and 3.by visualizing the structure of your sentences, you can more effectively write and speak them so that others will accurately understand what you say or write.
Child: I wanna be a dentist! Teacher: well guess what, to be a dentist, you must first learn unnecessary lessons that you dont need to be a dentist, and if you fail them, you wont become a dentist. You must learn things like Geometry, trigonometry, calculus, diagramming sentences, blah blah
I have a test on Monday over diagraming and I still don't know how to diagram:( our teacher has us do it as bellwork and now we have a test over it, she does not even explain it.
I found a quotation as silly as some of your comments. Here it is: I really do not know that anything has ever been more exciting than diagramming sentences. - Gertrude Stein Of course, she's also famous for, "A rose is a rose is a rose is a rose." She's also responsible for that line that has been driving all of us insane for the past two years, "There's no there there." Good 'ol Gertie.
well at least you can use you tube this explains he explained it better then my teacher I have to take notes down on what we are suppost to know and look up lessons on youtube cause thats how bad my teachers suck at it ^^;
Why make it more difficult than it is. Kiss. Your explanation is more inscrutable than the subject itself. Diagramming should not be be laborious. It is a coherence implement and not a whole other entity. Sorry , your approach seems dogmatic .

very good tut
Excellent work. What software are you using there?
Do you know of an app or program in which teachers can put in a sentence & have it diagrammed to chevk for accuracy? Thanks!
Thank you so so so soo much for making this video! You really help me with school.
what is the software you use to draw diagram? thank you.

thanks so much! I was struggling with my grammar for the longest time..now im not!
I do list this as part of my TeachersPayTeachers shop. Go there and look for aclarkson.
And they are telling themselves that Language Arts teachers don't need the Smart Boards as badly as the science/math teachers do here.
Awesome! I'm excited
can you diagram the sentence the wheat bread had been baked to long???
Better to wait for Spellings and Punctuations Diagramming to be invented first.
Where is the upper diagonal to separate between the linking verb and the subjective complement in the sentence : He is an officer and a gentleman
Love it...
I Don't get why we have to learn this but thanks for teaching me
TH-cam is awesome.
