Hi Clive,May I ask you for further questioning?Does the [$1] is the object of [yesterday this book cost].So, the [$1] is the real / logic subject of the sentence. Because no the [$1], no this sentence.Wish your help come soon again.

Hi,

In terms of grammar, the subject is the subject and the object is the object.

Yes,But in language mentality, the [$1] is master, and [this book cost] is slave, isn't it?
