Tree Diagramming Practice 1

[@monicag.6462]

I've been teaching ESL and this is EXCEPTIONAL! Truly appreciate your clear explanations and examples!

[@sh_3150]

Well done teacher I was so great.I understood from you more than my professor

[@Chani_ago]

Yeah!! I understand from this video than my lecturer😌😌 Thank you very much sir🙏🙏

[@kyamaldinihill]

Thank you so much! I have been having a hard time studying this for a few weeks and you explain it better than my lecturer!

[@jacobantoniojaj5033]

Congratulations to you teacher, I liked it so much. I'm the one of your fans from Mozambique 🇲🇿

[@brittneyvasquez8694]

This makes so much more sense. These were totally confusing before your video! Thank you from a Science and Math teacher learning to teach ESLs.

[@mrleneyeduaguilarpanduro4175]

It's great to get this kind of information in you tube, I'm sure my students and me will enjoy it and learn a lot.

[@madifuller2164]

Thank you so much! You explained this way better than my professor/ my book!

[@inamwanda1618]

You are amazing. I wish you were around when I was in my master’s program back in 2012 and 2013

[@3dplanet100]

Interesting. I love this. This is like "the geometry" of grammar.

[@thiriinngine]

I need to study this for my exam. And I don’t know who to ask. Watching this is a great help. Thanks

[@jameswaltz4276]

Thank you for this video. I'm an English educator who is trying to brush up on some linguistics and I appreciate this kind of content that can help me. I have only one point of contention: Some people work in the office on the second floor. It seems much more logical to me that "on the second floor" is an adjective phrase corresponding to "office" instead of an adverb phrase corresponding to "work." Is there a reason you parsed it as you did?

[@TuziTalks]

Hi James, Your interpretation is also valid and would work. Typically adjectives are closer to their agent. SInce work was the close agent, I chose to have that PP modify the verb

[@meme-ist7559]

You made my life easy :) Great lesson. Appreciate your patience :) Lots of regards from India .

[@rosminazuchri636]

Prof Dr. Ok I will watch n listen your youtube. Iam Rosmina Zuchri from Indonesia Country. Hope I will increse my English after see your the subjects. Thanks

[@salahoda5078]

YOU ARE WONDERFUL . I HOPE YOU COVER ALL RELATED SUBJECTS . THANKS

[@irambarbi5423]

This is the best video Sir plz upload your next lecture about the brackets diagram. This video is very helpful to me bcz i'm worry about this topic and i don't know about the tree diagrams.

[@spankinchicks7469]

Sir can u tell me the best book to learn syntax tree diagram. So i can download on the internet.

[@truclinh2572]

Spankin Chicks Can you help me to draw this sentence : I am interested in doing exercises? Pls contact me through mail: [e-mail]

[@simo_bare4306]

Hello, I'm not a mother tongue student and i'm struggling to understand some parts: at minute 14:00 you say that "behind the counter" is describing the girl so it does function as an Adjective Phrase, but i can't understand why it is so and it's not an Adverb Phrase stating the place where the girl is. Anyway, thanks for the video, it really helped me understand most of it

[@truth2831]

thank you I have watched the lecture and got valuable information, that is why I am very thankful to you, wish you all the best

[@rafiasarwat5721]

your way of delivering lecture is absolutely awesome.I really appreciate

[@solanamedina4230]

Thank you very much! I have a mid term exam today and I was lost till I found this video. From Argentina!

[@yadgirikunta71]

Have you written any book on this subject. Please inform the name of the book. Regards Yadgiri Kunta India

[@shouqalharthi5287]

You are amazing you helped me with my linguistics home work🤍 from SA🇸🇦

[@lesart3446]

Thank you for your teaching skills and the content of your work.

[@olehhyryn8304]

Thanks, disagree about the office on the second floor thougj. This is more likely to be the AdjP branching from the N office, rather than AdvP modifying the verb

[@alexSlash7]

thank you very much! im taking syntax at the university right now and this video has helped me a lot!!

[@aminekhnagui1152]

why did u draw an adv p in the first sentence(Elizabeth ordered green eggs and ham for breakfast),there is no adv to draw it.Ur driving me crazy

[@Jenthura]

Because 'for breakfast' describes 'ordered'. It describes **why** Elizabeth ordered.

[@UniqueEnglisheasyway]

Sir you have explained excellently. Thank You Very Much PSSHINDHE FROM INDIA

[@philipadzah2366]

Well done Sir. So helpful. But please, can you explain why you always refer to the pronoun in the structure as a noun throughout your delivery?

[@AliEjaz-wq7hx]

Sir, what is" every second " If it comes at the end of the sentence?

[@solrodriguez7909]

Thank you for taking the time!!! In these lockdown times, you explained it better than my book lol :) THANKS

[@inglesconalan5360]

Very interesting and very well explained. Thanks for posting this video.

[@GujarKhanTv93]

Plz differentiate between noun phrase and prepositional phrase bcz in first example "for breakfast" isn't it a noun phrase? And second why can't we make the tree with VP and giving it more branches instead of joining the phrases to main VP part?

[@demolitionwilliams]

How did I get here?.... And why do I find this so interesting?? I started reading about China producing competitive smart phones, and 2 hours later: 🐿️! Unfamiliar word ➡️ dictionary ➡️ thesaurus ➡️ syntax vs grammer? ➡️ 👆

[@antoniosoares2058]

Thanks a lot for the nice tree diagrams,but would you please draw me the tree diagrams for the following sentences. 1. Whose books do you read? 2. Where does he live? 3.why are you crying now? 4.how do you come here? 5. Will you visit US again? Thanks a lot,sir.

[@dablumahato4171]

Your genial teaching makes even tougher topics very easy... Salute to you from India🖖🖖🖖

[@TuziTalks]

Thank you!

[@zdzd6511]

Thank you very much for your highly appreciated efforts I have a question Is ok not to mention the function of a pp ?

[@TuziTalks]

In the end, establishing rules for creating tree diagrams depends on the purpose and objectives of the person or organization that wants the diagrams. If you are a student writing tree diagrams for a course, find out from your professor how detailed they should be. If you are a researcher, determine the level of specificity required and follow that protocol.

[@jairorodriguez9091]

thanks from Colombia forever my dear teacher..

[@AsgharKhan-zy3eb]

Sir, can you suggest a comprehensive book on grammar and syntax?

[@joeluribe2079]

Hello, I´m learning English and I have a question. in the example "some people work in the office on the second floor", how can I know that it is an adverb instead of an adjective phrase? because for me "on the second floor" may be describing the office. hope that you or somebody answer my question :)

[@natsuryuu]

Could you please help me understand how a diagram for "the house in the wood near the park" would differ depending on whether or not we're using the DP hypothesis.

[@muneccimtercuman4802]

Thank you so much you are great!

[@nurfaizah8717]

This is awesome ❤❤❤ thanks in advance. Your explanation was very clear 👍

[@taren1d]

thank you so much!!! life saver

[@jalalzbirat6338]

Thanks for your colloboration. Your explanation is absolutely very useful. well I have a request. Could you please make tree Diiagram of the following ambiguous sentence: He attacked the girl with a knife. Thank you in advance.

[@guardiandogoargentinos1385]

What do ye think about David Wynn Miller?

[@carlosantonioalegriapadill7338]

Can you please explain how to break a complex sentence, mainly with the conjunction "with", into its complements. The sentence is: the ink dried when he had entered the class

[@ellenampuero1122]

I absolutely love this video. Just one question: On the sentence "Tomorrow will bring a snow storm into the region" why is "tomorrow" labeled as a noun? Isn't it an adverb?

[@TuziTalks]

Nope! Tomorrow is in the Noun slot of the sentence. Tomorrow is a day, which is a thing (idea), which is a noun

[@TuziTalks]

Its position the sentence is Subject. It is the actor in the sentence. It BRINGS snow.

[@giainhchanhchanhhh3373]

- thank you so much.

[@kc-bc6qb]

you are a savior !!!!! indeed a cakewalk!! thank you!

[@agnieszkanowak901]

That was incredibly helpful! Thank you very much!

[@dilinisamaranayake821]

thank you ..this is great

[@ismiyatiannovani3157]

So how about this sentence "Everybody expected Carl to write a novel" Can u help me to make tree diagram from the sentence above??? Please help me...

[@bonbonpony]

"Everybody" is the subject, a noun phrase, with consists of just a noun, or rather, an indefinite pronoun. "expected Carl to write a novel" is the predicate, which tells what that "everybody" is doing, and can be subdivided further. "expected" is obviously the verb. Then There's the direct object: "Carl" upon whom the action of expecting is being done. "to write a novel" is an infinitive phrase, because it begins with an infinitive form of a verb, "to write", and its direct object is "a novel", which is another noun phrase (in which "a" is a determiner for the head noun "novel").

[@selvinajulianti]

Waahhhh, it's really clear, I understand it well, thank u sir

[@bouchrarezine2984]

Thanks from Morocco, this is really helpful

[@santhinair8717]

[@minakeli1361]

Hi Sr it os a great job i have understood much better now.but i have a sentence i would like from you to answer The beautiful girl who is setting there in the corner is a student I understand the first part wich is clearly a NP(the beautiful girl) VP (is) adv pre(in the corner) Np(a student) but what about( who is setting there) is it an adv ph or a relative clause Thank you😊

[@TuziTalks]

The beautiful girl (NP) who is sitting there in the corner (AdvClause) is a student (VP)

[@minakeli1361]

@@TuziTalks THANK you a lot💓

[@fabianfischer4229]

Your videos for are good for reviewing tree diagrams for my upcoming finals. Which grammar do you base your analysis on? We have to stick to Quirk at al., A Comprehensive Grammar of the English Language, 1985. I think you mixed up form and function in the first example: Elizabeth ordered green eggs and ham for breakfast. You're asking about what role the PP for breakfast plays in the sentence: the role of an adverbial, but that does not make it an Adv.P. in formal analysis.

[@TuziTalks]

You and I both agree on its form and function. Where we disagree is the nomenclature- semantics. Enjoy the day

[@piyapathuaihongthong8217]

Thank you very much. Your video clarifies very clearly to me.

[@missouiaem5893]

Thanks sir ,sir could you plz help me in this sentence: The girl did not like the party but her parents did

[@bweso28]

So good.. Thanks, i manage to get more knowledge about this topic in my education

[@hebanabil1561]

Thanks a milion for that massive effort .please keep going

[@kashivittles239]

Hey,Thank you so much! You explained it so well.

[@lynemax6689]

thanks for the detailed explanation of the tree diagram. please help me to project this sentence: How experienced should they be

[@TuziTalks]

Convert the question into a sentence - They should be experienced SOMEHOW. Diagram the sentence and then use a transformation rule to make it a question.

[@isaganijrvelasco5458]

Thank you for this one sir. It is very instructive and I sure did learn a lot from this. Anyway, I just noticed a thing in your last example. I think the one under the noun phrase should be categorized as a pronoun instead of a noun. Well, I may be mistaken.

[@godzilla362]

[@barkhalakra1665]

Thanks for the video. Proved to be of great help

[@jfrensch5267]

The sentence 'Some people work in the office on the second floor'. You mark 'on the second floor' as an AdvP, but doesn't it say more about the office, that it is the office that is on the second floor, not just any office, so shouldn't it be an AdjP instead of an AdvP?

[@mantis1406]

How about start sentece with questions tag?

[@patriciafl860]

I really love your class thanks it's saving me cause I didn't understand my teacher

hye sir i want to ask question that why we can't use pp as a head phrase?

[@syedazaidi545]

plz give me some tips to identify advP

what do you mean? If I understand you correctly - you can

[@eziieee2626]

Thank you❤️❤️❤️❤️you made my day💝

I don't know how to do the syntactic diagramming the superlatives regarding to the adjectives

[@الدعوهاليالله-ط1د]

Thank u so much ..You really helped me up

[@BelloRoheemah-mo9iu]

Thank you

[@kwunmeichan8013]

19:30 there is no verb in the phrase "After lunch" so why is it defined as a VP at the top?

[@TuziTalks]

The adverb phrase, after lunch, describes when the children went and played. Adverb phrases are typically embedded in the verb phrase. This particular adverb phrase was originally in the verb phrase and was moved to the head of a sentence. My examples that I post on KZbin do not typically described the move rules. So to make it easier, I simply add a verb phrase that is in front of the main subject or main noun phrase. An adverb phrase must be part of the verb phrase (predicate). It is not part of the main verb phrase where the sentence verb is usually stored. Does that answer your question?

[@user-tj7le6vv2t]

This is awesome sir....Thnk u soo much....it really helped me alot

[@bulutsimsek2656]

Just awesome! Thank you so much!

[@nrmn1799]

I have a question… when we say in 2010. We include it in PP but what is 2010 here?

[@TuziTalks]

a year. a time. a noun

[@dianalong6805]

How would I diagram this complex sentence then: As the annual track meet approached, all I could think about was deafeating Anna Banks.

[@dianalong6805]

if you could email me at [e-mail] I would appreciate it

[@TuziTalks]

Rearrange the sentence so you understand its original form As the annual track meet approached, all I could think about was deafeating Anna Banks. All (that) I could think about was (this (defeating Anna Banks)) S NP VP MVP N N ADJC MV Predicate Nominative S N (gerund phrase) NP VP MVP PP All I could think about this was defeating Anna Banks

[@rahmimuthmainnah8796]

Pretty good, it's easier to understand.
