Thank you for the video! I wanted to ask if you are going to do a video on subject tests. Inversion, Question tag and short answer tests seem straightfoward, but, during my syntax test, one of the sentences that we had to apply subjects tests to was ''What kinds of wrongdoing will we learn about this year?'', and that revealed to me that i still dont fully understand how do subject tests work. Also, if anyone that can help with that sentence, i'd be very glad. the thing has been eating me for weeks now.

amazing clear explanations!! i'm in love!! I have a test on this tomorrow but i have a question about principle C (sorry you said you didn't want to talk about it): "Maria saw herself" is a grammatical sentence but surely it flouts the principle C because herself and Maria are co-indexed ..... ??? help
@Trevtutor6 жыл бұрын
If Maria is an antecedent, then it's okay. A principle C violation occurs when "Maria" is coindexed with something else BEFORE it.

@@Trevtutor what if we have a sentence 'She is Maria' and here She and Maria are co-indexed and bound. It still doesnt violate principle C? I could not understand what you meant by 'if Maria is coindexed with something before it'.
@sot11cat3 жыл бұрын
“She said that he loves herself” is in Latin totally grammatical. Illa1 dixit [eum amare se1] (I co-index using numbers) This may have of course also another reading: Illa dixit [eum2 amare se2] In 1 co-indexing the reflection is said to be “indirect”; in 2 co-indexing “direct”. How could we come with a rule exposing that? I should clarify that reflexives can be used in such an ambiguous way either in finite (“full CPs”: dependent clauses of many sorts) or non-finite verb phrases (infinitives, participles, gerunds etc, thus “null CPs). Infinitives with verbs introducing indirect speech (like dicere) are considered TPs, if I’m not so wrong.

@MOPCLinguistica4 жыл бұрын
The final sentence is grammatical because complements and adjuncts of objects of a verb X will also allow reflexive pronouns to refer to (to be coindexed with) the subject of verb X.

@demidron.3 жыл бұрын
Thank you! I'm still not clear on how to tree sentences that contain fronted constituents in X' other than Wh phrases and auxiliary verbs. For example: "Yesterday I went to the beach." Does "yesterday" move to Spec-C, to C or to something else? What if there are two fronted constituents? "Yesterday in Madrid there was a riot." Do we put "yesterday" in Spec-C and "in Madrid" in C? What if there are more than two fronted constituents: "Yesteday, in the kitchen, while doing the dishes, I saw a man out the window." ?

Actually , the principle B has confused me . what I understand is that a pronoun must be free in its binding domain , that is to say not bound . First to violate the binding : A shouldn't c-commands B , or A shouldn't co-indexed B as in ; Carol ( i ) said that she ( j ) was happy . . Second , the pronoun is free in domain. Here we can say that we could apply the princple B Is that what Principle B means or I get lost in this chapter of Binding theory . Another question Sir , do these principles dominate and control on if the clause grammatical or ungrammatical ?
@Trevtutor6 жыл бұрын
she(j) is not bound since it is not co-indexed with Carol(i). Principle A and C usually match people's intuitions about whether a sentence is grammatical or not, but there is some experimental evidence that shows that Principle B can be violated and yet still be acceptable.
