This course introduces students to the basic principles of generative-transformational syntax. The basic sentence structure is first introduced, followed by the structure of the English auxiliary, the verb phrase, and the noun phrase. After an introduction to the generative theory is given, the course then proceeds to cover the concepts of transformation, transformational rules, and the formulation of such rules in formal notation.
