Noun phrases contain a noun (and sometimes a determiner), while verb phrases contain a verb and may include additional components


How does the word "the" function as a determiner in a noun phrase?

It helps specify which noun is being referred to

How do tree diagrams represent syntactic relationships across different languages, such as English and Japanese?

They can be adjusted to reflect different word orders while maintaining underlying relationships

How do prepositional phrases (PPs) fit into syntactic structures?


They modify nouns and verbs by indicating relationships like location or time

What is the role of recursion in language structure?

To allow infinite embedding of structures within other structures

What is syntactic ambiguity, and how does it relate to the phrase "One-eyed one-horn flying purple people eater"?

This activity is designed to help you understand how sentence structure is organized in a visual and hierarchical way using syntax trees. Syntax trees reveal how words group together into phrases and how those phrases form complete sentences.

Learning objective: 

To develop an understanding of syntax trees by analyzing sentence structures and hierarchical relationships between syntactic elements.

Instructions: 

1. Read and take notes from the following article:

    Introduction to Computational Linguistics.

2. Once you have analyzed the information, watch the video “Syntax - Trees: Crash Course Linguistics”, where you will answer questions about the topic throughout the video. This activity will be automatically graded, and the score will be reflected in the gradebook.

Additional note:
