  • Il costrutto “sthā- + participio presente”: brevi osservazioni su una perifrasi aspettuale vedica
    Università degli Studi di Milano, 2019
    Co-Authors: Rosa Ronzitti
    Abstract:

    The periphrasis “sthā- + present participle” was described by Berthold Delbrück in his Altindische Syntax [1888]. Such a construction would indicate the persistency in the action and the Verb ‘stay’ would play the role of an Auxiliary form. The present paper analyses a group of brāhmanic passages in order to confirm the scholar’s hypothesis (which was based on two sole examples) and enlarge the corpus known so far: in fact, brāhmanic prose shows texts which are less ambiguous and more perspicuous than poetry.   KEYWORDS: Vedic, aspectual periphrases, syntax, stay, Auxiliary Verb

  • AN ANALYSIS OF GRAMMATICAL ERRORS IN WRITING RECOUNT TEXT AT THE FIRST YEAR CLASSES OF ENGLISH DEPARTMENT
    'Universitas Bina Darma', 2019
    Co-Authors: Martiarini Elyza, Candra, Eva Nurul
    Abstract:

    The objective of this research is to find out and analyze the types of error made by students at the first-year classes in writing a recount text. The methodology of the research used is qualitative methods and the research design is a case study. Moreover, the writers chose the first-year classes students of English Department and observed 40 students. The writers used a written test to gain the data about error in writing a recount text. Based on the analysis of students’ recount text writing, there were several mistakes made by the students, with the total number of percentages was 76%. Of these, 76% errors including 15% errors of irregular Verb usage, 12% errors of regular Verb, and the type of error most often done by the students was 32% errors of word choice, 2% errors of omission, 3% errors of Auxiliary Verb, 5% errors of intralingual transfer, 2% errors of adVerb, error of misordering was 5%, and error of unclear meaning was only 2%. The number errors of be was 17%, and the use of personal pronoun errors was 7%.

  • the syntactic structure of french auxiliaries
    Language, 2002
    Co-Authors: Anne Abeille, Daniele Godard
    Abstract:

    While a consensus has been reached about the monoclausality of the Romance construction with an Auxiliary Verb and its Verbal complement, questions remain about its syntactic structure. We focus here on French auxiliaries - the past tense auxiliaries (avoir and etre), and the passive Auxiliary (etre) - which are unique in French in contributing only tense and aspect and triggering obligatory clitic climbing. Three syntactic structures have been proposed for such auxiliaries: a VP complement analysis, a Verbal complex analysis, and a 'flat' VP analysis. We show here, working within a HEAD-DRIVEN PHRASE STRUCTURE GRAMMAR framework and basing our arguments on classical constituency tests, bounded dependencies, and lesser-known properties of a subset of manner adVerbs, that the flat-structure analysis is to be preferred for tense auxiliaries, which take as their complements the bare participle as well as the complements subcategorized by this participle and 'inherited' from it. In contrast, the passive Auxiliary, which we identify with the copula, has a predicative complement with different realizations: either an ordinary phrase, 'saturated' for its complements, or a 'partial' complement, where the predicative head lets some or all of its complements be inherited by the Auxiliary. Our analysis allows for a solution to the well-known problem of Auxiliary selection, which, we argue, should not be taken as an indicator of syntactic structure but is best handled via lexical constraints.

  • word order priming in written and spoken sentence production
    Cognition, 2000
    Co-Authors: Robert J Hartsuiker, Casper Westenberg
    Abstract:

    An experiment is reported that showed priming of the word order of Auxiliary Verb and past participle in Dutch subordinate clauses, both in speaking and in writing. Participants completed sentence fragments to full sentences. Prime sentence fragments were constrained so as to be completed with only one possible word order. Target sentence fragments, presented immediately after the prime fragments, could be completed with the same word order as that of the prime and an alternative order with the two words exchanged. Significant priming effects were obtained, so that the same word orders tended to be used in prime and target. We interpret this as evidence for a distinct process of constituent structure linearization during sentence production, which serves to ensure the fluency of speech and writing.
