I think this should be rarely apart.

Fun fact, anyone that has ever seen "field of dreams".Get this quote wrong it's actually "If you build it, HE will come". This is an interesting example of the Mandela effect and blew my mind when I found out we have been misquoting such an iconic movie.

This sounds kind of awkward to me but Im' not sure if its grammatically wrong could just be an uncommon way to say it?

is "sorry" or "missed" or "seeing" the verb in this sentence ?

This sounds awkward when I say it. I feel like something missing here.

Exactly!!! thank you!

How do you teach a child about the tenses in their native language and it not be accurate? That seems so counter productive. It took me until high school to fully understand them subconsciously when I wrote an essay. But it was very frustrating growing up and only one of my english teachers really went out of their way to make sure I had a strong grasp of the concept before I finished her class.

From what I remember there are the big 3 past, present, and future i can't recall the rest. However, some thing interesting I know more of the different kinds of tenses in Spanish than in english and Spanish is my second language. I am not sure why because I speak english more I do Spanish.

Maybe it could that Spanish is more strict in its structure than English is and you're more inclined to remember them. Im not sure.

When I re-read the last paragraph this for the second time it makes more sense in hindsight but at the same time it is difficult to keep track of all different factors in mind. When you're trying to determine verb pattern.

I think this should be verbs plural

Essentially, don't trust this rule at face value take it with a grain of salt but keep it in mind.

what is this? I think this is a typo?

contain is repeated here.

Shouldn't it be " this (is) a misleading simplification"

How are they different if they essentially play simular roles in a sentence they receive action of the verb? I'm little confused on how they are different.

I look this up and it says the definition is : "Unwilling to spend money or use resources stingy or frugal." I don't understand context in this sentence.

Would it be safe to say that once you determine what the head word is we know the general direction of the sentence i? In other word then is the head the foundation of every sentence or phrase?

We should put up the class definition of syntax we made in class last week.

Class definition

Syntax: The system of rules for ordering (and maybe words parts) into phrases and sentences.

also in include the class definitions of perspective and descriptive grammar from class as well.

Descriptive Grammar: A set of rules about language which is based on the way people do ( and don't) use language, naturally. 'grammatically' instead of "correctness'.

Prescriptive Grammar: A set of rules based on how certain people think language should be used, tied to notions of 'correctness'.

what is NP Structure?

shouldn't it be definiteness and quantity?

(Typo) *category

I don't think that (little) needs to be in this sentence.

traditional (grammar)? seems off to say grammars. Isn't grammar already plural?

but of course this far from true.

?

?

To clarify Prescriptivists are more rule oriented and and Descriptivists are more informal?

not sure what they mean?

This should be emphasized. it is a theory not something etched in stone.

For a longtime I dreaded english class for this reason. Many english teachers I encountered through out my time is elementary- high school alway penalized me for these mistake but I never really understood fundamentally why it was wrong and I never received a clear explanation. How are children expected to understand what is right and what is wrong when these same teachers are making the same mistakes?

I agree with this sometimes there are just easier/better ways to express something with out it having to be technically "Correct".

I wonder about this question because written and spoken language don't always coincide with one another. Rules and structure are important because it helps accurately convey your message. However, why does there have to be a right or wrong way to express a language. If the same phrase is said but in two different ways. Yet, it still accurately conveys the same message. What makes one more correct than the other if the goal has been achieved ?

Morphology: is the study of words and how they are formed e.g analyzing their stems, roots, suffixes. prefixes etc. Which helps us to understand their relationship to other words within a language.

A common practice used when studying latin and other ancient languages that are not commonly used anymore.

Traditionally, language has always had these principles since, they act as the foundation of "a well formed sentences". But I think that with having restriction it inclines those with a creative itch to bend these rules like rappers. They manipulate and break these principles to create art. I think it's fascinating to the see how art and tradition collide with one another. Yet, both rely on each other since they are evolving facets of culture.
