这句话的主语、表语是什么?
本帖最后由 鸭呼嘿 于 2019-10-13 15:55 编辑... The two good phrases to delete are "you know" and "you might be thinking".
Which way of analysis is correct? Or neither is?
Pattern 1:
The two good phrases: subject
To delete: attributive
Are: linking verb
"You know" and "you might be thinking": predicative
Semantic function of infinitive: to indicate "propriety/obligation/necessity"[?]
Pattern 2:
......
To delete: predicative
"You know" and "you might be thinking": apposotive (of the subject "the two good phrases")
Underlying synonymous sentence in a more "common"word order: The two good phrases "You know" and "you might be thinking" are to delete.
Semantic function of fixed phrase "to be infinitive": to indicate propriety/obligation/necessaty
[如果发错版有劳版主移动]。 Pattern 1 is correct. 本帖最后由 dongzhi1980 于 2019-10-13 19:35 编辑
The two good phrases to delete are "you know" and "you might be thinking".
It becomes into the following after being restored its full form:
The two good phrases (that you are going/want) to delete are "you know" and "you might be thinking".
Now it's very clear about the structure of the sentence.
The subject is what we talk about(here it is "phrase"), and the predicate is what we say about the subject, the important
word in the predicate is always the principle verb, here, it's "are" in your mentioned sentence.
Pattern 1 is correct. In English. Incredible! 来学习一下 都变成英语学堂了。。。
