Grammar drived from Greek grammatike meaning to write - Kinds of grammar: Prescriptive grammar: to be phrased as prohibition - standard grammar Descriptive grammar: to describe the grammatical system of a language (e.g to describe how to play football: using a ball, hand and a basket .) - Grammar development: Traditional grammar: grammar teaching at school, parts of speech, The traditional categories Immediate constituents: using techniques for displaying sentence structure is the use of immediate constituent (IC) analysis Phrase structures and transformational grammar: - Phrasal structure: the division of a sentence into parts, or constituents, and the division of those constituent into subparts. - the transformational rules can be informally thought of as an instruction to change one structure to another Functional grammar: showing grammar communicating meaning in social interaction. 1 Branches of linguistics Phonology (âm vị học) Segmental-đoạn (vowels, consonants) supra segmental (stress rhythm, intonation Grammar Morphology-hình thái học (morphemes) - Syntax (phrases clauses- sentences) Semantics Words Phrases Clauses Sentences - Utterances Discourse analysis Sentences Paragraphs - Texts Pragmatics (ngữ dụng học) Implicit (hàm ẩn ý) explicit (hiển môn) Grammar Open class items • It conveys content words (lexical words). • Too many of them, can not count them - the number of this class is unlimited. • Two members can go together - the members of this class do not exclude each other. • Can always create new members. Closed system items • It conveys function words. • Can count them - the number of them is limited. • Two members cannot go together - the members of this class exclude each other. • Can never create new members. Example: a car N act (v) actor (n) actress (n) action (n) activity (n) active (a) actively (adv) a school-girl (n) new-born (adj) good-looking (a) Ex.: 12 a car - one/ indefinite - in general - In particular a/ my/ this/ the car 2 Morphology Classes of word (different parts of speech); - Different grammatical categories of different parts of speech. Syntax Deals with the combination of words to make larger units of language Parts of speech Open class items Nouns Adjectives Adverbs Verbs Closed system items Articles Demonstratives Pronouns Prepositions Conjunctions Interjections Phrases NP, AdjP, AdvP, PreP, VP Clauses Main clause - subclause Finite - nonfinite - verbless Sentences Elements: S, V, C, O, A Kinds: 2 kinds - Simple - Complex: + by using Coordinators + by using Subordinators 1, Is it right to say that right wrongs no man? 2, One can not right all the wrongs in the world. 3, Cure that cold with a drink of hot lemon before you go to bed. 4, Drink this quick!

Adv head postmod. d, Prepositional phrase (Pre.P): in the class pre. NP a noun phrase dominated by a preposition 3 e, Verb phrase (VP): a group of one or more than one verbs in which there is a verb as a head. - Structurally, there are 2 kinds of VP: VP Finite VP ‘To’ Inf.NFVP Nonfinite VP: - Infinitive NFVP Bare Inf.NFVP - -Ing participle NFVP - -Ed participle NFVP • Finite verb phrase: a verb phrase whose verb element agrees with the subject in person and number. He is a student. 3rd person, sing. 3rd person, sing. FVP – simple I have learnt English.

Functionally : I think that you can do it if you try. c b a ‘a’ is the superordinate to ‘b’ or ‘c’ is the subordinate to ‘b’ ‘b’ is the superordnate to ‘c’ ‘b’ is the subordinate to ‘a’ 7 Structurally: FCl FCl FCl Cl.elements + V.complementation: s v S V O A e, According to the syntactic functions of sub-clauses: 4 kinds - Nominal clauses: (S, O, C) What I want is not what he wants.

SENTENCES 3.1. Definition An English sentence must have the subject that governs the verb and a finite verb phrase. 3.2. Sentence elements 1. Traditional classification: Subject + Predicate 2. Modern classification: S-V-O-C-A Obligatory: 7 pattern clauses Optional: Adverb of place/time She went to London last Sunday. Aplace Atime The plane took off immediately. Ex: 99 3.3.
