Abstract

Linguists are often divided into more or less separate fields of study: phonology - sounds; morphology - the shape of words and affixes; syntax - the ways words are combined into larger structures including
sentences; semantics - meaning; pragmatics - language in a social context; discourse - language larger
than a sentence. This paper will focus primarily on syntax, semantics, and discourse, with brief relation
to morphology and pragmatics. Structure and meaning are always inextricably bound. English sentences
in detail are important to understand the overall structure of the simple sentence. This paper there will be
examined the internal structure of some short, simple sentences. What these sentences will dramatically
illustrate is that English speakers exploit a very small number of basic sentence-making structures and
these basic structures are used over and over again to create increasingly long and complex utterances.
