ABSTRACT

From the preceding chapters you will have gained an idea of how phrasal categories (NP, VP, AP, PP and AdvP) fit into the structure of sentences. Of these, we have only looked in detail at the structure of VP: complements in VP, adverbials in VP and auxiliary verbs (and their VP complements). In this chapter, I look in more detail at the internal structure of other phrasal categories, Noun Phrases in particular.
