SYMBOLS USED IN SYNTACTIC ANALYSIS
To analyze the syntactic structure of language, several symbols are used to abbreviate syntactic
categories. The most common abbreviated symbols that are used are the following:
There are other symbols that are used to present a syntactic analysis with a linear form instead of
using a tree; the main symbol used is a right arrow → / >, which indicates the composition of a
syntactic element. For instance: in the phrase “The house” the noun phrase (NP) consists of a
determiner (Det.) and a Noun (N), in this case, it can be written as: NP→ Det. N. There are also
grammatically incorrect.
optional constituent, that is, that this word(s) can be omitted from the phrase without
one of the elements must be selected, this is necessary when there is a choice among
different constituents. For example, a NP like “the cat” (Art N), can be replaced with a
Proper Noun - PN (Garfield) or a Pronoun – Pro (it), in this case curly brackets may be used
straightforward way of interpreting language syntax; The different structures that appear in a
language can be displayed as rules, for instance, in English there are several rules such as:
• S → NP VP:
This rule indicates that a sentence is formed by a noun phrase and a verb phrase.
• A→B+C
C→D
This rule implies that a constituent can be conformed by another constituents.
• A → (B) C
The round brackets indicate that there are constituents that are optional (B) and others
• A → {B,C}
The curvy brackets indicate that you can only choose one constituent between B or C.
