You're not late dear. I am 60 years old. I learned and remember English class where I grew up. Which was blessed, I know. I went to an English paroquial High School. People nowadays aren't taught proper English language so the older you are the better your chances are that you were taught to speak proper English! I am of the opinion that it is sadly a dying language. This video and the man, David-Wynn Miller who is no longer with us left us with a profound description of proper syntax language which is a most profound legacy. He is not with us anymore but I feel blessed to have seen what he is about and it you watch his video, you will learn what a person with his ability can accomplish. That is if we the people get enlightened. Applied knowledge is power. Knowledge in and of itself isn't. Do you understand what I am saying? I pray that you do! Itso powerful It can actually stop a war. Be sure to watch David-Wynn Miller's video, because if we follow his truth we empower ourselves and the more who do the more powerful we become. There is strength in numbers in more ways than one. I hope you are able to get something out of thisand pray that you ca. May God bless you and yours and keep you in truth and light because the smallest amount of light can illuminate darkness! In Jesus' holy name I pray Amen, amen amen. Amen = So be it! Sincerely Gina

Ang natutunan ko sa bidyong ito patungkol sa pagtatalakay sa sintaks o palaugnayan ay kung paano niya detalyadong sinuri at hinimay ang mga halimbawang pangungusap. May mga pangungusap na may kalabuan dahil maaaring ito ay nagtataglay ng dalawang kahulugan. May posibilidad na maiba ang organisasyon ng istruktura ng isang pangungusap batay sa ibig ipakahulugan nito.

@evanashworth490 Жыл бұрын
It's tough to diagram sentences here, but the subject would be a big noun phrase "the house on the hill", which consists of the noun phrase "the [determiner] house [noun]" and the prepositional phrase "on the hill", which consists of the preposition "on" and the noun phrase "the [determiner] hill [hill]. The verb phrase would be "collapsed in the wild", which consists of the verb "collapsed" and the prepositional phrase "in the wild", which consists of "in" [preposition] and the noun phrase "the" [determiner] "wild"[noun]. Note here that "wild" is a noun in this sentence, not an adjective. I hope that helps!
