Hawks / syntax. This material is something 1
Post# of 51178
This material is something
1st considered in early grades these days.
Verb types:
Transitive, Intransitive, and Linking(copula).
There is another consideration that would be
approached let's say by an adult or at least
by graduate or post graduate studies and
here as a title of an imagist verse currently
submitted in a world competition:
(and as below not infinitive)
Transitive Copulative
left on the chalkboard
"this,love is-does all/that."
quiet
Classic and special examples
of something sometimes being
both copula and transitive:
'I love you' & 'This is that'
I know that is quite a bit to chew on.
Well, I rather think now you never made
it to graduate study - of anything.
