Exempel

  • So far, we have considered only transitive Verbs which take a single NP Complement. However, there are a subset of transitive Verbs (known as ditransitive Verbs) which can take two NP Complements, as illustrated in (16) below (where the NP Complements are bracketed): (16) (a)      John gave [Mary] [a present] (16) (b)      The postman handed [me] [a parcel] (16) (c)      He showed [her] [his credentials] (16) (d)      He sent [his mother] [some flowers] (16) (e)      Never promise [anyone] [anything] The relevant subcategorisation frame for Verbs used in this construction will be [— NP NP], indicating that they can take two NP Complements.
