| Jan 2, 2014 at 5:14 | comment | added | Omid | @TimOsborne Thanks for your answer too. GB theory might not reflect the current research trends in linguistics, I still don't have that much knowledge and vision to have an informed analysis. Hopefully in a few semesters I'll get a better picture. Please note that I also have no choice but to read the book now otherwise I may fail the course! :) | |
| Jan 2, 2014 at 4:57 | comment | added | Omid | @PElliott Your answer is exactly what I need and appreciate. It is quite understandable, on point and very scientific. Thanks a lot! I was having a hard time trying to draw a plausible tree using a correct binary projection. Now it’s crystal clear. Thanks again and lots of good wishes for the new year! | |

| Jan 1, 2014 at 4:59 | comment | added | P Elliott | @TimOsborne I use phpSyntaxTree because it's quick and easy: ironcreek.net/phpsyntaxtree. You're probably right about this being overkill. I like to think i learn things from trying to answer questions on here, so this is probably more for my benefit than the questioner's! I don't really see anything a priori wrong with syntax being complicated. Models in other scientific fields don't get criticised for being complex. The important thing is that it actually does the job. P.s. A happy new year to you. | |
| Jan 1, 2014 at 4:35 | comment | added | Tim Osborne | @P Elliot. But what are you using to create your trees? | |
| Jan 1, 2014 at 4:34 | comment | added | Tim Osborne | @P Elliot, overkill! Way more information than I bet novice66 had in mind or can appreciate. The fact that the analysis of simple sentence like "John opened the door and left" takes so much theorizing exposes a major weakness in the framework and in the field. To quote Jlawler again, syntax should not be that complicated. | |
