Nominative Gentive 1. murmur murmuris fu:r fu:ris far farris os ossis It seems to me that the genitive maker is -is and there's no nominative maker, and latin doent allow consonant clusters in the coda, so there is a deletion rule assuming that /farr/ and /oss/ are the underlying representations 2. o:s o:rs flo:s flo:ris mu:s mu:ris There&#http://www.englishforums.com/English/PlzCheckGrammaticalitySentence/wlpkh/post.htm#727103Tue, 12 May 2009 18:21:45 GMT946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:727103mythical ladyHi Mistar Micawber, I've a sort of syntactic analysis I've to do; I don't know if I can go for it here or in the linguistics part. In brief, I want to argue fo sentences like Mary believes Jack to be flawless to decide between subject to object raising and s-erasure as a transformational rule based on passive and reflexive pronouns. So I was thinking, if believe can take infinitival complement in which there's a pronoun referring back to the subject. (Syntactically both the subject of the matrix sentence (the main clause) and the object pronoun of the infinitival clause (the embedded clause) are coreferential).

I know likely fits perfectly here, but i question the usage of probable in particular.

You know Avangi I based my analysis on your answer. Those made-up sentences were just to check my understanding. For "probable", we come to define verbals as adjective in nature behaving like verb or let's say occupying verbal positions according to "Syntactic Argumentation and the Structure of English" by Perlmutter and Soames. It is somehow an outdated book. Yet we come to study it as a basis in syntax particularly for those lacking a sound background in syntax. To tell the truth I didn't like :) Thank you very muchhttp://www.englishforums.com/English/ProbableAndOtherVerbals/wwhgx/post.htmFri, 01 May 2009 10:44:06 GMT946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:709611mythical ladyHi all, I want to check the correct use of the underlned verbals in the following sentences: (probable+infinitive) From "It's probable that the disease is epidemic", can I say "The disease is probable to be epidemic"? The cat is probable to be out of the bag (does it convey the idiomatic meaning?) It's probable to be rainy today. (bound + that) It's bound that Mary applies for the job. (there+seem) There seems to be a hoopoe in the garden. (certain+infinitive) It's certain to snow today The *** is certain to hit the fan. Are these uses grammatical?

The purpose of the exercise is to consider sentences from Ineseno Chumash, a language spoken north of Santa Barbare, California: Salimexkeken ( he stretches it out ) Nokalkalimexkeken ( I will stretch it out all over ) Seqwel ( He does it ) Keqkeqwel ( I do it all around ) As noticed, the reduplication in Ineseno is meant to convey a certain semantic meaning. I should deduce the meaning from the English version of these sentences. Hope you get it!

But the problem here is that we are not given any context.

Does it have the following interpretions: Every man loves only one woman. ( who is one definite entity) This interpretion sounds weird to me. Any man loves any woman. ( i.e their love is not confined to one woman ) To Forbes: As a matter of fact, the sentence seems ambiguous in my mother tongue which is Arabic. But when I tried to analyse it, I virtually tried to exculde my mother tongue and only think in English.

But the great division that should be drawn is between the religion (the message being conveyed ) and the people ( believing and practising what they just like) . And in fact, this's what causes the fight. Another thing is that the situation in Gaza Strip (between Fatah and Hamas) is not a struggle caused by a split in the same religion. Each party is ultimately political party. The conflict is casued because each is objecting the ways the other usesto handle things. Most followers of Fatah or Hamas are Muslims and there are some Christains as well.
