The grammar blueprint: an introduction to syntax
Linguistics HQ di Dr Rebecca Mitchell
Note sull'episodio
Do you know your equative from your versative? Why do some languages play fast and loose with word order? And what did Plato have to say about parts of speech? This episode looks at syntax, including what makes a sentence make sense, different word orders around the world, and how to draw a very simple constituent structure diagram. Pens at the ready!
