CHAPTER 1:
sentences – communicative functions and typical patterns

Sentence patterns:
 Declarative  informing (John is leaving.)
 Interrogative  asking for information (Is John leaving?)
 Imperative  getting someone to do something (Leave!)
 Exclamatory  expressing feeling/attitude (How awful John is
leaving!)

Roles and functions of sentence constituents:

Roles Function Abbreviation
First participant Subject S
Process Predicator P
Something about the first participant Subject attribute SA
A second participant Direct object DO
Something about the second Object attribute OA
participant
A third participant Indirect object IO
Benefactive object BO
The setting Adverbial A

Explanation:
Subject - S
First of all, the speaker names at least one person or thing and says something about him,
her or it. We will call this person or thing the first participant.

Predicator - P
Then the speaker names the process, such as is, is holding, is walking, which describes the
act, deed state of being or becoming that the first participant is involved in.

Subject attribute – SA
If the speaker says something about the first participant, it will be an attribute describing a
quality or characteristic, or one or more words identifying the participant or giving the class
the participant is a member of.

Direct object
The speaker may choose to mention a second participant, which is another thing, person,
event, or situation that stands out in the scene.

Object attribute
In some cases, it is possible to name an attribute of the second participant.

Indirect object or benefactive object
It is possible for the speaker to name three participants. In such cases, something is
transferred from one participant to another.

, Adverbial
The speaker may choose to give information about the setting, which tells how, where,
when, why, under what condition, in spite of which condition the process or the event or
situation takes place.

Examples:
 The mother / had given / the boy / a balloon / for his birthday.
S P IO DO A
 The little boy / was / very proud / yesterday.
S P SA A
 All day long, / the little boy / considered / the balloon / his greatest treasure.
A S P DO OA




Typical sentence patterns:
 The running pattern – intransitive verbs
 consist of a subject and predicator.
 John (S) is running (P).
 The being pattern – copula verbs

 John (S) is (P) the runner (SA).
 The doing/seeing pattern – monotransitive verbs

 John (S) kicked (P) the ball (DO).
 The giving/buying pattern – ditransitive verbs
