I am Tobias, and I am new to this site. I study international corporate communications in Denmark, and as a class we have english grammar. I really hope you can be of help, since I will flunk this class if these sentences are wrong upon turning them in this friday. Yup, you guessed correctly - I am pretty desperate!
Sentence 1
All the people who were present in the room found the temperature too low to work effectively. | S/Clause |V/VP| DO/NP |OC/Adjp| A/Advp | |S/NP |SC/Clause | |S/NP|v/vp|sc/adjp|S/pp |
Sentence 2
He appeared sad and lonesome so I found a seat close to him and we had a little chat. |s/np|v/vp |sc/adjp|cc|sc/adjp |cc| S/Clause |cc | S/Clause | |s/np|v/vp |do/np| oc/adjp |cc |s/np|v/vp|do/np |
Sentence 3
The purpose of the meeting we were having was to prepare and make plans for the party. | S/Clause | v/vp |cc | v/vp | do/np | | s/np | v/vp |do/clause | |s/np| v/vp |
Sentence 4
I think I'm allergic to leather because I have a headache whenever I wake up wearing my shoes.
Sentence 5
Happy about his misfortune, she laughed and said: "This time I really got you where it hurts!"
- Sorry about the mix of capital letters, but it seemed the best choice due to the understanding. Sentence 4 and 5 is where I am really stock, but I am not at all sure if the others are correct.
I really REALLY hope you guys can help, this is my last chance and the workload is extremely intense at the moment.
Kind regards
Tobias Lund
