Dear teachers,
Here is another set of sentences, would please have a look at my analysis again?
4) Some of the critics gave the film terrible reviews.
- some...critics = S
- gave = ditransitive verb
- the film = IO
- terrible reviews = DO ?
5) The house is for sale. S V Cs
- the house = S
- is = intensive / copular verb
- for sale = Cs
6) Johnny McLean finished recharging his .45 caliber the second that Ringo the Rat walked in. S V DO A(t) ?
- Johnny McLean = S
- finished recharging = monotransitive verb ?
- his .45 caliber = DO
- the second...walked in = adverbial of time ?
Thank you very much indeed.
