hello all,

I have done a few exercises for the following sentences drawing a tree diagram down to the word level.....I want to confirm if these are correct or not. What is the NP in 2? & VP & NP in 3?

1. "The room was furnished with antiques."

a. [S [NP The room NP] [VP was furnished with antiques VP] S]

b. Tree diagram: Unable to draw a tree diagram properly here....

S

NP VP
/ \ / \ \
/ \ / \ \
Det N V AdjP PP

P NP

The (Det) room(N) was(V) furnished (AdjP) with (P) antiques
(NP)


c. Phrase Structure Rule : S ==> (Det) – N – V – (AdjP) – (PP)


2. "He said that his sister had gone to Australia"

a. [S [NP He said that his sister NP] [VP had gone to australia VP] S]

I am not very well-versed in TG. Send an email to Andrew Radford. He will help you out. ;-) I can't (anymore).
