Example Sentences
- "The sentence was syntactically correct, but made no sense."
- "Thus, there is a third kind of judgment, which we shall call characterization. The wa-phrase and ga-phrase serve syntactically to distinguish predicational judgment not only from nonpredicational description but also from characterizational judgment."
- "The other words in our corpus also have argument structures, but those argument structures are sometimes empty, such as in the case of many nouns. All this means is that these words don’t need other elements to complete them. A noun like Lana or pizza, for example, doesn’t need any other categories to be complete syntactically."
