PROPERTIES OF PREDICATE
PROPERTIES OF PREDICATE Properties of predicate devide into these type:
Properties of Predicates
Semmetry Reflexsive, Transitive Assymetry irreflexsive intransitive
Symmetric predicate
P = a two – place predicate
X = referring expression
Y = referring expression
XPY entails YPX
P = a symmetric predicate
Assymmetric predicate
P = a two – place predicate
X = referring expression
Y = referring expression
XPY contradicted to YPX
P = an assymmetric predicate
Reflexsive predicate
P = a two – place predicate
X = referring expression
Y = referring expression
X and Y = have the same referent
XPX = analytic sentence
XPY = analytic sentence
P = a reflexsive predicate
Irreflexsive predicate
P = a two – place predicate
X = referring expression
Y = referring expression
X and Y = have the same referent
XPX = contradiction
XPY = contradiction
P = a irreflexsive predicate
Transitive predicate
P = a two – place predicate
X = referring expression
Y = referring expression
Z = referring expression
XPY and YPZ entails XPZ
P = a transitive predicate
Intransitive predicate
P = a two – place predicate
X = referring expression
Y = referring expression
Z = referring expression
XPY and YPZ contradiction of XPZ
P = a intransitive predicate
Participant Roles
Basic concept
The common type of semantic roles in a simple sentence are a predicator and an argument.
The argument refers to referring expression in which it is corresponded to things, persons, etc.
Argument may have a participant role. It is depending on their role in a simple sentence
Definition and Classification
Participant roles is the roles played by the participant objects and people in a simple sentence
There are five types ;
Agent
Affected
Instrument
Beneficiary
Location
AGENT
Is the person carrying out the action described
AFFECTED
Is the thing, sometimes the person upon which the action is carried out.
INSTRUMENT
The things by means of
