Hello everyone.

 

Through this video, I'd like to introduce a new method of understanding English sentence structure by drawing diagrams.

One of the existing methods is called 'Sentence Diagram'.

 

For example, there is a sentence "I love you."

Then, in this way, we distinguish the subject 'I' and the verb 'love' through straight lines.

Next, the object 'you' is distinguished by a line that does not cross the horizontal line like this.

Anyway, this is a method of analyzing sentence structure while drawing straight lines, diagonal lines, dotted lines, etc.

 

However, this method becomes very, very complicated when the sentence becomes longer like this.

And, it cannot accurately specify the grammatical role of each word, such as what part of speech it is, or what sentence component it is, etc.

So, I would like to introduce a much easier and simpler method of sentence structure analysis to you.

 

I'll show you right away.

 

The existing, overly complex Sentence diagram can be drawn and analyzed neatly like this.

I will explain what each diagram means in a moment,

But one of the advantages of this drawing method is that it does not take up a lot of space to draw a diagram.

 

The existing 'Sentence Diagram' method takes up a lot of space like this.

In particular, it takes up too much vertical space and each word is scattered up, down, left, and right, making it look too cluttered.

 

In comparison, this method takes up almost no vertical space.

So you can draw a diagram directly on the sentence written in multiple lines and analyze it.

In other words, it has a great advantage that you can draw and analyze directly on a sentence printed on paper in multiple lines.

So I named this method 'DrawEnglish'.

 

 

I will explain each diagram step by step.

 

First of all, the verb is drawn as a circle because it is the central core in an English sentence.

The first thing to draw in this diagramming is the verb.

It is the most important thing, needless to say.

In the case of this sentence, there are two verbs like this because it is a sentence with two clauses.

 

Then, the object is connected to the verb with a small square like this.

Since the verb 'told' can use two objects, two squares are connected like this.

The reason why the object is shaped like a square is,

The object is always a noun, so it is designed as a square, modeling the N shape of Noun.

 

Next, the conjunction is designed in a diamond shape with the meaning of 'connecting the left and the right'.

 

Now! Let's go deeper!

 

 'to infinitive' is originally a verb.

So it can have its own object 'something' like this.

So here, eat is also drawn with a circle, which is a verb mark, and connected to to with a straight line.

However, to infinitive is changed to the form of 'to plus verb form' to be used as a noun, adjective, adverb.

In other words, it is no longer a verb!

So eat is drawn with an arrow mark on the circle as a sign that it is no longer a verb.

This arrow also serves to indicate that the 'to infinitive' can have directionality or future meaning.

Now! I have drawn all the basic pictures.

 

Now, I'm going to introduce a truly groundbreaking concept of the 'DrawEnglish' structure analysis method.

 

This sentence consists of a total of 9 words.

However, not all words have the same status.

In other words, there is a hierarchical relationship between several words.

Now! Look at the sentence,

 

The 'I told him that' chunk, which is governed by the main verb 'told', is the top-level word group of the sentence,

 

The 'that I wanted to eat' chunk, which is a subordinate clause to this, is a one level lower word group,

 

And the 'to eat something' chunk, which is subordinate to this, is the lowest word group.

In this way, the hierarchical concept between words is also drawn.

In other words, by drawing the size of the shapes or the location of the drawing with a slight difference,

When analyzing long and complex sentences, it will be very, very visual, making it easy and accurate.

In this picture, the dotted line guiding the level is shown in the background,

 

You can draw the height of the layers with a slight difference even if there is no level line like this.

 

For reference, words such as 'that' and 'to' here can be thought of as grammatical signs that connect the upper and lower layers.

 

So far, I have introduced shapes for verbs, objects, conjunctions, and 'to infinitives',

 

 

I also introduced how to analyze the structure by distinguishing the layers between word chunks in a sentence.

 

We will sometimes practice distinguishing the most basic 'parts of speech'.

So, I will explain the shapes corresponding to each part of speech.

 

First of all, the verb was a circle,

Then, as I said earlier, the object is always a noun, so we designed a square by modeling the 'N' shape of Noun, right?

In relation to that, the noun is designed in the shape of square bracket which is a square cut in half.

Since a noun can be a single word or a long phrase or clause, drawing it in the shape of square bracket will be very efficient.

Also, pronouns are drawn in the same shape of square bracket because they can be considered a kind of noun.

Next, the adjective is designed in the shape of parentheses by modeling the 'j' shape of 'adjective'.

The adverb is designed in the shape of angle bracket by modeling the 'v' shape of 'adverb'.

I also consider interjections as a kind of 'adverb' and draw them in the same shape.

 

Next, the preposition is designed in the shape of this by modeling the 'P' shape of 'Preposition'.

You guys, prepositions are almost always followed by an object, right?

So, wherever a preposition appears, the combined shape of this of 'preposition plus object' will always be drawn.

 

Finally, as I mentioned earlier, the conjunction is designed in a diamond shape with the meaning of connecting both sides.

 

If you were to express this sentence only with part-of-speech figures, you could draw it like this.

However, this is just a very basic part-of-speech distinction exercise,

It will not be of much help because it does not indicate the organic grammatical relationships between words in a sentence.

Instead, it would be much more useful to use it as a way to reinforce the analysis of this sentence structure.

 

 

Mark the nouns that have not yet been marked in this sentence like this,

 

Also, if you want to specify that the 'to-infinitive' and that-clause are noun phrases,

You can draw them additionally like this.

It will enable much more detailed sentence analysis.

 

Adjective phrases, adjective clauses, adverb phrases, adverb clauses, etc. can be marked in the same way.

 

Of course, you don't have to draw all these shapes.

It takes a lot of time to draw them all.

You can improve your skills by drawing only the necessary shapes according to your level.

 

 

 

Like this, or like this, or like this, much simpler and faster!

Once you get the hang of it, just by drawing verbs and non-finite verbs like this,

You will reach the point where you can quickly summarize and interpret long texts.

 

This time, I will introduce how to draw sentence components.

 

I didn't create a separate 'Subject' because it can be identified without drawing it.

If you really need it, you can draw it in the shape of square bracket, which is a 'Noun' mark.

 

As I mentioned earlier, the object is a square shape,

 

There are noun complements and adjective complements for 'complements', right?

The noun complement is drawn in the shape of this using only half of the noun figure.

 

The adjective complement is also drawn in the shape of this using only half of the adjective figure.

If you apply it to a sentence, you draw it like this.

There are adjective modifiers and adverb modifiers, right?

So, if necessary, the adjective modifier uses the adjective mark and is drawn like this,

You can also draw the adverb modifier like this.

 

This video ends here,

Next time, I will cover how to mark the rest of the grammatical tools,

I'll show you first.

 

You can draw auxiliary verbs like this, relative pronouns like this, relative adjectives like this, and relative adverbs like this.

You can probably guess why it was designed this way, right?

 

DrawEnglish can not only mark grammatical tools such as parts of speech and sentence components,

It can also be analyzed by marking the properties of the most important verb in a sentence.

 

Tenses, present or past, can be marked like this,

Perfect is like this, Progressive form is like this, passive form is like this,

Subjunctive mood can be analyzed by drawing inside the verb like this.

 

 

All the shapes of the diagrams I have introduced so far,

These are shapes that were created after much deliberation so that they can even recall what grammatical function they have.

In other words, just by repeatedly practicing drawing pictures on sentences

You can see the effect of improving your English sentence structure analysis skills without even realizing it.

 

Next time, I will explain the rest of the diagrams I just mentioned in detail.
