MAIN PART
The immediate constituents of the sentence
Though the sentence contains words, it is not merely collection of words, but sometimes integral, a structural unity built in accordance with one of the syntactic patterns existing in a given language. It is constructed according to the system of rules, known by all the mother – tongue speakers of the language. A sentence formed in this way is said to be grammatical.
A basic sentence pattern consists first of all of a subject and a predicate. These are called the immediate constituents of the sentence. They are constituents in the sense that they constitute, or make up, the sentence. They are immediate in the sense that they act immediately on one another: the whole meaning of the one applies to the whole meaning of the other [Rayevska 187].
The function of the main parts of the sentence – the subject and the predicate, is to make the predication, to contain the meanings of predicativity (relation of the sentence to the situation of the speech). It includes relations to the act of speech, to the speaker, and to reality.
Predicativity is as essential a part of the content of the sentence as intonation is of its form. The sentence as a predicative unit of language verbalizes human thought and represents lingually the main predicative form of thought, proposition. [Suhorolska; 245]
The subject and the predicate are considered to be interdependent. They constitute the backbone of the sentence: without them the sentence would not exist at all, whereas all other parts may or may not be there, and if they are there, they serve to define or modify either the subject or the predicate, or each other [Illiw].
Every English sentence but the one – member and the imperative one must have a subject. The subject is one of the two main parts of the sentence.
The subject denotes the thing whose action or characteristic is expressed by the predicate. Subject can refer to something that is identified, described, classified, or located; they may imply something that performs an action or is affected by action, or something involved in an occurrence of some sort. [Rayevska, 1970, 94]
The most important feature of the subject in English is that in declarative sentences it normally comes immediately after an operator. It means that in English sentences any word or words which occur in these positions are to be treated as the Subject of the sentences. The subject determines the form of the verbal part of the predicate as regards its number and person. Also it is not dependent on any other part of the sentence.
The predicate is the second principal part of the sentence and its organizing centre, as the object and nearly all adverbial modifiers are connected with and dependent on it. It denotes the action, state or property of the thing expressed by the subject. Traditional grammar identified predicate by looking for the verb. However, the verb itself is seldom the entire predicate. The predicate is usually more or less complex structure with the verb at its core. It is not dependent on any other part of the sentence. The different meanings find their expression in the structure of the predicate and the lexical meaning of its constituents.
The predicate may be considered from the semantic or from the structural point of view. But whatever the meaning or the structure may be, the predicate in English always contains a finite verb form, which agrees with subject in number and person. The only exception to this rules the simple nominal predicate, which has no verb at all.
It is sometimes claimed that the predicate agrees in number with the subject: when the subject is in the singular, the predicate is bound to be in the singular, and vice versa. However this statement is very doubtful. E.g. My family are early risers. The question of concord refers to the level of phrases, not sentences.
The subject-group and the predicate-group of the sentence are its two constitutive "members", or, to choose a somewhat more specific term, its "axes" (in the Russian grammatical tradition — «составы предложения») [Bloh, 25].
Subject
From the point of view of its grammatical value the subject may be rather notional or formal.
1. Notional subject.
2. Formal subject (impersonal and introductory: It – subject, There - subject).
Notional subject
It may be expressed by different parts of speech, the most frequent ones being:
Time should follow the ideology of that publication. [, 6]
Bret calmly tells Jemaine his gal pal has robbed them [5, 56].
Finally a crew member calls a break [5, 56].
Artists in unstable and troubled countries always find a way to speak [23,56].
Military working dogs had been used aginst Khatani [173,11]
a) a personal pronoun in the nominative case:
I fail to see any contradiction. [ , 6].
We finally elected the smartest guy in the room [,6].
They are supported by incompetent manager Murray- by day a bureaucrat in the
Can we relieve Bret’s arms for a bit? [5,56].
b) a demonstrative pronoun (this and that, those, such, the same) occasionally:
This will fund up to children’s studies next year [ ,6].
That will require more than speedy spending [ ,18].
That was a real gig that we did [5,56].
These are the issues that
c) a defining (all, each, every used only as attribute, everybody, everyone, everything, either, both, other, another):
All of this takes place in setting of high-8os kitsch, through which Brosnan strides with not a hair out of place nor a crease in his fastidiously tailored attire [5,58].
All didn’t end well for the pirates, however: reports said several of them drowned when their boat capsized as they returned to shore [,11].
d) an indefinite (some, any, somebody, anybody, someone, anyone, something, anything, one):
Some of the most difficult subjects in entertainment are people who have been in show business for a very long time [2,4].
e) negative:
After seeing his film, nobody is going to forget it [23,55].
f) possessive:
g) interrogative:
3. A gerund, a gerundial phrase or construction:
Perhaps hoping to turn attention away from their financial woes, carmakers unveiled a slew of new hybrid and electric vehicles at the 2009 North American International Auto Show in
Choosing Obama as Time’s person of the Year was so predictable [5,6].
Weaving’s a man’s game [5,56].
Adjusting to a sudden power outage can be a remarkable challenge [5,60].
Rollin’s timing is perfect while prices for Chinese works dropped in the fall auctions, Southeast Asian art broke records.
The offensive, which had claimed the lives of more than 950 Palestinians and 13 Israelis so far, has hardened attitudes on both sides [,11].
Little is known about Jong Un, who is in his mid – 20s and has lived a life of secrecy – much as his father [5,7].
5. A numeral (cardinal or ordinal) or a nominal phrase with a numeral:
Two or three generations ago we had nothing at all, and then all of sudden we had everything [23,56].
And when one burns out, You can’t toss it in the trash [5,6].
6. An infinitive, an infinitive phrase or construction:
8. Any part of speech used as quotation.
We’ve run out , and now what we’re doing is, we’re making up. [23,4].
10. Subjective predicative construction.
………..
Formal subject
We have two formal subjects – there and it.
The formal subject it may be impersonal and introductory.
The first one is used in sentences to describe various states of nature, or things in general, or characteristics of the environment, or denoting time, distances, or other measurement.
It ’s late afternoon on the set of Flight of the Concords, and McKenzie is hanging, duct – taped, on the back of the door. [5,56]
It’s terrific [5,58]
At 60ft. tall, it will be one of the world’s largest all-bambo buildings when completed in March [5,56].
For me, it was a 20-minute helicopter ride and I was back in
It was just another example of his uncompromising, unforgettable zeal [, 13].
There are some peculiarities that distinguish impersonal it from introductory.
- In the sentences describing a certain state of affairs, where the predicate expressed by the verbs to seem, to appear, to happen, to turn out followed by a clause, it is impersonal. The clause will be object.
…………
- Impersonal it is used in the sentences describing time, where the predicative adjectives preceded by too and followed by an infinitive. Here the infinitive is an adverbial of consequences , not the subject.
……………
- It is also used in the sentences with the predicative expressed by the noun time followed by the infinitive. Here the infinitive is an attribute to the noun time.
……………..
The introductory/anticipatory it introduces the notional subject, that can be expressed by:
1. an infinitive
2. a gerund
3. an infinitive /gerundial phrase
4. a predicative complex
5. a clause.
It’s just that her audience wasn’t ready [23,4].
I think that if there was any mistake made, it’s probably that she shouldn’t have posed for Vanity Fair [23,4].
The formal subject There
Used in the sentences expressing the existence or coming into existence of the person or non-person expressed by the subject.
There introduces the subject expressed by:
1. noun or noun phrase (denoting an inseparable unit or an indefinite amount of something)
Thehe’s a strong dose of social realism in the novels, in keeping with Scandinavian tradition [23,56].
There are no car chases or explosions.
2. by some noun – pronoun
indefinite
negative
universal
detaching
demonstrative
3. by a gerund or gerundial phrase.
The predicate in such sentences can be:
1. Simple verbal predicate (expressed by the verbs to be, to appear, to live, to come, to go etc)
………….
1. compound verbal predicate.
……….
2. predicate of double orientation (it’s second part expressed by the verb to be or other verbs mentioned above)
…………..
Predicate
Ways of expressing of the predicate are varied and their structure will better be considered under the heading of types of predicate.
Types of predicate
From the structural point of view there are two main types of predicate: the simple predicate and the compound predicate. Both have its sub-groups: simple verbal, simple nominal, compound verbal, compound nominal. Compound verbal predicates may be further classified into phasal, modal and of double orientation. Compound nominal predicates may be classified into nominal proper and double nominal.
Simple Verbal Predicate
The simple verbal predicate is expressed by:
Our sun recharges the batteries of millions of tourists [, 1].
More people survive than die [5,6].
But the most definitive official account was released by the Senate Armed Services Committee just before Christmas [173,11].
(Past simple),(Past perf cont),(Pres perf cont)
I was raised in a very traditional home [, 4].
An appellate court has revived charges against him of corruption,fraud and racketeering [,11].
a) phrases denoting momentaneous actions: to have a look, to have a smoke, to have a talk, to give a look, to give a laugh, to give a cry, to make a look, to make a move, to make a remark, to pay a visit.
Vice President had a hand in the process [173,11].
b) phrases denoting various kinds of actions. In most cases they comprise an abstract noun used with no article: to change one’s mind, to get rid of, to get hold of, to loose sight of, to make fun of, to make up one’s mind, to make use of, to take care of, to take leave of, to take part in.
....................
A simple nominal predicate
The simple nominal predicate is expressed by a noun, or an adjective, or a verbal. It does not contain a link verb, as it shows the incompatibility of the idea expressed by the subject and that expressed by the predicate; thus in the meaning of the simple nominal predicate there is an implied negation:
………..
Sentences are always exclamatory. The simple nominal predicate can be expressed by:
1. A noun.
2. An adjective.
3. An infinitive or an infinitive phrase.
4. Participle I or a participial phrase.
The simple nominal predicate, that is, a predicate consisting merely of a noun or an adjective, without a link verb, is rare in English, but it is nevertheless a living type and must be recognised as such. (Ilyish) 201
…………
Compound predicate
It consists of two parts: the notional and the structural. The notional part may be expressed by a noun, an adjective, stative, an adverb, a verbal, a phrase, a predicative complex and a clause. From point of view of the meaning it contains the information of the subject.39
The structural part is expressed by a finite verb – a phasal verb, a modal verb, or a link verb. It carries the grammatical information about the person, number, tense, voice, modal and aspective (phasal) meaning of the whole predicate. 39
Compound Nominal Predicate
It consists of a link verb and a predicative (nominative part). The link verb is the structural element of the predicate, as it joins the subject and the predicative. It expresses the grammatical categories of person, number, tense, aspect and mood.
It consists of link verb: a) of being (be, feel, sound, look, appear, seem), b) becoming (become, grow, turn, get, make), c) remaining (remain, keep, stay), d)
The predicative can be expressed in different ways.
1. A noun in common case, occasionally in the possessive case.
I am an active humanist [, 4].
It was the highest figure since 1941 [,11].
The overriding sound track is silence [5,6].
2. By an adjective or an adjective phrase.
Barack Obama as Person of the Year was insightful, interesting and original [, 6].
The truth is instructive, especially now [5,6].
We are more resilient than we think [5,7]
The rest of us, case studies say, become obedient and quiet [5,6].
No, people were pretty calm, actually [5,6].
(Was full of enthusiasm, was difficult to convince)
3. by a pronoun – personal, possessive, negative, interrogative, reflexive, indefinite, defining.
……
4. By a word of the category of state (stative).
Aware
Afraid
Was wide awake
5. By a numeral, cardinal or ordinal.
Was 60
Am the first
6. By an infinitive, infinitive phrase, an infinitive construction.
Which is not to say they were not terrified [5,6]
The only real solution is to decriminalize drug use [173, 4].
The Bush Administration decided to have Sere trainers instruct its interrogation teams on how to torture prisoners [173,111].
Was to run, Is to go, Is for you to whip him
7. By Participle II or very seldom Participle I; the latter is generally adjectivized.
They know that I am very pretty demanding [2 ,4].
Seemed strangely chosen, sounded quite distressing
8. By a gerund, gerundial phrase, or a gerundial construction.
My industry is magazine publishing [1,4].
Was his being away
It was like riding a tiger, not knowing how to get off without being eaten [173,7].
Is on our side.
10. An indivisible group of words.
The price tag for that crisis is already in the hundreds of billions [173,9].
It’s nine o’clock already [5,7].
11. A clause.
This is just what the Israeli government is doing [5,6].
Those who fare best are usually those who are prepared [5,6].
Compound nominal double predicate
It consists of two parts, both of which are notional. The first one is verbal and is expressed by a notional verb. Also it links its second part to the subject. The second part is expressed by a noun or an adjective. The first part is expressed by a number of verbs that most often occur in this type of predicate, performing the double function of denoting a process and serving as link verb at the same time. They are:
to die, to live, to lie, to marry, to return, to rise, to sit, to stand to shine.
In a New York City federal Court, where the former Nasdaq chairman stands accused of masterminding a S50billion Ponzi scheme, is congressional hearings, and in the Manhattan office of the French financier who killed himself after Maldoff milked him and his clients out of more than S1billion [173,9]. Sat silent
The compound verbal predicate
The compound verbal predicate can be divided into two types according to the meaning of the finite verbs: the compound verbal modal predicate and the compound verbal aspect (phasal) predicate.
The compound verbal modal predicate
The compound verbal modal predicate shows whether the action expressed by an infinitive is looked upon as possible, impossible, obligatory, necessary, desirable, planned, certain, permissible. In most cases it denote to the action of the person non – person by the subject. It consists of a modal part and an infinitive (or sometimes a gerund).
It may consist of the following components:
1. A modal verb and an infinitive. Here belong the combinations of such verbs as can, may, must, should, would, ought, dare, need with an infinitive:
You must clearly choose between these two sides [ ,14].
Wickrematunge could not accept that kind of thinking [ ,14].
It should be careful that it does not become what it seeks to defend itself against [5,6]
But maybe it should be [5,7].
This shouldn’t be the responsibility of another country [173,8].
The modal part may have two modal verbs or a modal verb and a modal expression.
Then they’d have to live with official acknowledgement of their ignominy in perpetuity [173,11].
She must be willing to come [3,9].
He may have to return [3,9].
2. Modal expressions (that are synonymous with modal verbs or verbs with a modal meaning) and an infinitive. Here belong the combinations of such expressions as to be able, to be allowed, to be obliged, to be bound, to be willing, to be anxious, to be capable, to be going with an infinitive.
“They always say that they’re going to investigate these things, but nothing ever happens” [ ,14].
But that’s not going to happen [173,11].
3. Modal expressions: to be + Infinitive, to have + Infinitive.
We’ll have to see [2,4].
If I want to get depressed, all I have to do is watch CNBC [173,4].
4. A verb with a modal meaning (to hope, to expect, to intend, to attempt, to try, to endeavour, to long ,to wish, to want, to desire) and an infinitive or a gerund.
If Obama doesn’t want to make that statement, perhaps it could be done in the form of a Bush Memorial inWashington
5. verbs and expressions used in the predicate of sentences containing the Subjective Infinitive construction (Nominative – with – the Infinitive Construction)
………….
The compound verbal aspect (phasal) predicate
It denotes the beginning, duration, repetition, or cessation of the action expressed by an infinitive or a gerund. It consists of a phasal verb and an infinitive or a gerund.
It first component is a phasal verb of:
1. Beginning: to begin, to start, to commence, set about, to take to, to fall to, to come.
………………
2. Duration: to go on, to keep, to proceed, to continue.
………………
3. Repetition: would, used (denoting a repeated action in the past).
……………
4. Cessation: to stop, to finish, to cease, to give up, to leave off.
…………..
Mixed types of the predicate:
There is a type of predicate in which we have elements of two types of predicates. Such predicates contain three components.
1. The compound modal nominal predicate. (I mean to be unkind).
Michelle may turn out to be the most stylish First lady since Jackie [ ,3].
Just as broken window creates work for the glazier at the expense of the window owner, money that Kinsley hopes to inject into the economy must first be taken out of it [173,4].
Couldn’t to be happy
Must feel better pleased
2. The compound aspect nominal predicate. (I began to feel rather hungry).
3. The compound modal aspect/phrasal predicate.
(He had to keep on resisting).239
Ought to stop (doing)
Can’t continue (training)
4. The phasal nominal predicate.
His methods and motives remain cryptic, but the carnage unleashed by Bernard Madoff is beginning to be revealed [173,9].
Began to be ashamed, was beginning to look desperate
5. The compound nominal predicate of double orientation.
He seemed a bit disappointed by the lack of rigor when it came to stress positions [173,11].
It seems probable that nothing much is going to happen to the Bush Administration officials [173,11].
Is said to be very ill, Seems to be happy
Compound verbal predicate of double orientation
It consists of two parts. The first part is a finite verb which denotes the attitude of the speaker to the content of the sentence. The second part denotes the action which is performed by the person/non – person expressed by the subject. The first component is a verb or phrase belonging to one of the following three groups:
1. Intransitive verbs of seeming or chansing with the general meaning of evaluation in the active voice: to seem, to appear, to prove, to turn, to happen, to chance.
………………
2. Some verbs in the passive voice:
a) verbs of saying: to say, to declare, to state, to report, to rumour.
……………….
b) Verbs of mental activity: to believe, to consider, to expect, to find, to know, to mean, to presume, to regard, to suppose, to think, to understand.
………………….
c) Verbs of perception: to feel, to hear, to see, to watch.
……………………
3. Phrases with some modal meaning: to be likely, to be sure, to be certain. The adjectives likely, unlikely, sure, and certain indicate the speaker’s attitude to the future.
…………….
Yet few Sri Lankan journalists have been permitted to report on these successes – or on their human toll [ ,14]. ?
Conclusion
The main task of this paper was to take a close look at the primary parts of the sentence. An attempt was carried out in this research to analyze different ways of expressing primary parts of the sentence. The primary parts of the sentence can be expressed in four ways, that is, by a single word – form or a word form preceded by a formal word, by a phrase, by a predicative complex, or by a clause. The verbal predicate can be neither a predicative complex nor a clause.
1. A word – form (any form of the grammatical paradigm of the word).
2. A phrase (a group of two or more notional words functioning as whole) may contain one or more formal words. They may be divided into two kinds: phrases divisible syntactically and semantically, phrases indivisible syntactically and semantically.
3. Predicative complexes (contain two words with predicative relation, that in their turn may have one or more words dependent on them). The predicative relation within a complex is grammatically only implicit.
4. Clauses (that like predicative complexes contain two words connected predicatively, but unlike predicative complexes the predicative relation in complexes is expressed explicitly in the grammatical forms of the subject and the predicate).
The difference in the way of expression of the parts of the sentence lies in their structure.
In this paper, functions of the primary task were discovered (YOUR EXAMPLE.) Structural and grammatical classification of the predicate was provided, and ways of expressing primary parts were shown. All this was complimented by a number of examples taken from various authors.
