Dear all,
* u& |* t0 A/ h+ m- nShould "accorded" be "accorded to"? Because I think of "accord" as "give".

( u' F+ g9 k' m$ r2 gThis is a hard one, LQZ. I don't think that the sentence you've quoted is incorrect, but I don't think that your suggested revision would be wrong either. I would say that the answer has something to do with the fact that "accorded" forms part of a noun clause in the NYT's sentence.4 Z6 b: b* D9 V9 z' p& V$ \
"Respect is accorded to her by the students." - fine
7 D+ W9 R& O6 `2 @"Respect is accorded her by the students." - somewhat unidiomatic
1 J) H. |, Q4 l; R% o2 }"She enjoys the respect accorded to her by the students." - fine
G7 X' p, U2 x0 V1 U# T"She enjoys the respect accorded her by the students." - I find this acceptable
3 `+ a* s) s- u5 _; i2 Z% P" }In other words, the bare participle of "accorded"--here used as an adjective--functions differently from the participle as part of a passive construction.
