chapter: 09

Chapter 9, describes the sentence structure, which is called syntax. To create any sentence we must follow some structures, otherwise, the sentence could not make any sense to us. Therefore, this chapter basically demostrates how the parts of speech getting together to form a sentence that represents the meaning. For example, if any sentence is active or passive, we could find the difference between them by knowing the surface structure, that is, the difference syntacs forms by the individual English sentence. Not only that, whether, we could form any sentence by adding another or not, it also explains. For example, the sentence, "the glass is broken by me", also could write as a "it was me who broke the glass and was this glass broken by me?". According to this sentence explains that we could form any sentence longer by knowing the rule of deep structure. Beside this, chapter 9, also demonstrate which rules we should follow, and which shouldn't.
