Grammatical analysis of the word

There
are two basic types of means with the help of which grammatical forms
are built: synthetical and analytical. Synthetical (synthetic)
grammatical forms are built by means of the morphemic composition of
the word. This includes the morphemic means, which were described in
the previous unit: outer inflexion with the help of adding
grammatical suffixes to the stems of the words, e.g.: cat — cats;
inner inflexion, or vowel interchange inside the root, e.g.: goose —
geese; and suppletivity, when different roots are combined within the
same paradigm, e.g.: go – went. Analytical grammatical forms are
built by the combination of the notional word with auxiliary words,
e.g.: come — have come. Analytical forms consist of two words which
together express one grammatical meaning; in other words, they are
grammatically idiomatic: the meaning of the grammatical form is not
immediately dependent on the meanings of its parts. Analytical
grammatical forms are intermediary between words and
word-combinations. Some analytical forms are closer to a word,
because the two parts are inseparable in their grammatical
idiomatism; for example, the forms of the perfect aspect: come — have
come. The components of some other analytical forms are more
independent semantically, and they are less idiomatic grammatically;
for example, the degrees of comparison: beautiful — more beautiful –
most beautiful. Such combinations of an auxiliary component and a
basic component are treated by some linguists as free
word-combinations, but as they are correlative members of grammatical
paradigms and express some specific grammatical meaning, they should
be recognized as analytical grammatical forms too. Some lexical means
regularly involved in the expression of common grammatical meanings
can also be regarded as marginal cases of suppletivity or specific
analytical forms, e.g.: the use of quantifiers with uncountable nouns
or repetition groups – a bit of joy, the last two items of news,
thousands and thousands, etc.

Analytical
grammatical forms are prevalent in English; modern English is an
analytical type of language.

Types
of word-form derivation

These
fall under two main headings:

(a)
those limited to changes in the body of the word, without having

recourse
to auxiliary words (synthetic types),

(b)
those implying the use of auxiliary words (analytical types).

Besides,
there are a few special cases of different forms of a word

being
derived from altogether different stems.

5

Synthetic
Types

The
number of morphemes used for deriving word-forms in Modern

English
is very small (much smaller than either in German or in Russian,

for
instance.

There
is the ending -s
(-es),
with
three variants of pronunciation and

the
endings -en
and
-ren,
in
one or two words each, viz. oxen,
brethren

(poet.),
children.

There
is the ending -‘s,
with the same three variants of pronunciation as

for
the plural ending, used to form what is generally termed the genitive
case of

nouns.

For
adjectives, there are the endings -er
and
-est
for
the degrees of

comparison.

For
verbs, there is the ending -s
(-es)
for
the third person singular

present
indicative, with the same three variants of pronunciation noted above

for
nouns, the ending -d
(-ed)
for
the past tense of certain verbs (with three

variants
of pronunciation, again), the ending -d
(ed)
for
the second participle

of
certain verbs, the ending -n
(-en)
for
the second participle of certain other

verbs,
and the ending -ing
for
the first participle and also for the gerund.

Thus
the total number of morphemes used to derive forms of words is

eleven
or twelve, which is much less than the number found in languages

of
a mainly synthetical structure.

It
should also be noted that most of these endings are mono-semantic,

in
the sense that they denote only one grammatical category and not two
or

three
(or more) at a time, as is the case in synthetic languages. For

example,
the plural -s
(or
-es)
denotes
only the category of plural number, and

has
nothing to do with any other grammatical category, such as case.

Sound
Alternations

Sound
alternations are a way of expressing grammatical categories which

consists
in changing a sound inside the root. This method appears in Modern

English,
for example, in nouns, as when the root vowel [au] of mouse
is

changed
into [aı] in mice,
etc.

This
method is much more extensively used in verbs, such as write

wrote

written,
sing — sang

sung,
meet — met

met,
etc.
On the whole,

vowel
alternation does play some part among the means of expressing

grammatical
categories, though its part in Modern English has been much

reduced
as compared to Old English.

Analytical
Types

These
consist in using a word (devoid of any lexical meaning of its

own)
to express some grammatical category of another word.

There
can be no doubt in Modern English about the analytical character of

such
formations as, e. g., has
invited
or
is
invited,
or
is
inviting,
or
does
not

invite.
The
verbs have,
be,
and
do
have
no lexical meaning of their own in

these
cases. The lexical meaning of the formation resides in the participle
or

infinitive
following the verb have,
be
or
do.
Some
doubt has been expressed

about
the formations shall
invite
and
will
invite.
There
is a view that shall

and
will
have
a lexical meaning.

While
the existence of analytical forms of the English verb cannot be

disputed,
the existence of such forms in adjectives and adverbs is not

nowadays
universally recognised. The question whether such formations as

more
vivid, the most vivid,
or,
again, more
vividly
and
most
vividly
are
or

are
not analytical forms of degrees of comparison of vivid
and
vividly,
is

controversial.
We can only say here that if these formations are recognised as

analytical
forms of degrees of comparison, the words more
and
most
have
to

be
numbered among the analytical means of morphology.

  • Concrete / Abstract
  • Jargon / Non-Specialist
  • Hypernym / Hyponym / Synonym
  • Connotation / Denotation
  • Semantic Field
  • Proper Nouns

Every noun is chosen above a large list of synonyms because of its particular flavour – its precise denotations and its numerous connotations (or even because it is a very general word and lacks certain specific connotations).

Katie Price, the celebrity, was seen last night…

What are the connotations of the word “celebrity”?

How many different nouns (or noun phrases) could replace the one used in this sentence? Why would an author chose one of them over the others?

Caution: pointing out the semantic field of a word, or a group of words, may make you look like an idiot. That a restaurant review contains words from the semantic-field of food is not very revealing; however, should such a review contain words from the semantic field of romance, or law or war, well then, that’s telling us an awful lot.

2. Adjectives

  • Comparative /Superlative
  • Attributive / Predicative
  • Descriptive/Evaluative/Emotive
  • Concrete/Abstract

As with nouns, adjectives have certain denotations as well as connotations; however, attributive adjectives can be left out of the sentence, so as well as answering the question what other adjectives (or adjective phrases) could have been used, we must ask why use an adjective at all? You must specify what type of adjective you are dealing with in each instance.

The big, fat, greedy man didn’t have a clue how to eat the most beautiful meal.

3. Pronouns

Pronouns tell us so much about what an author is “up to”, therefore they should be our first port of call when analysing any text. E.g. an advert using the second person pronoun is clearly trying to draw you – the reader – in, whilst using the first person plural pronoun is either including the reader or presenting a faceless corporation as a harmless group of people just like you.

Here at NatWest, we treasure you, we love you, and we will do anything for you.

Subject to terms and conditions.

4. Modal Verbs

The “could”, “should”, “would”, “must” words should always be pounced upon – modality is all about the author’s attitude to what they are themselves writing.

Texts can have modes of reassurance or modes of possibility or modes of obligation or modes of necessity or modes of prediction or modes of permission or modes of volition or modes of ability or mixed modes, where any of these modes can mix with any other as a text seeks to hide its purpose or has more than one purpose.

The lion might not like killing the gazelle, but they should feel alright about the whole killing side of things, owing to the gazelle having little or no awarness of moral problems, nor consciousness of their impending doom. Though they may fear death, the gazelle could not be aware of their existence as such, and therefore surely would have little to say about that existence coming to an untimely end. The law of the jungle may strike us as appaling, but we must not project our humanistic values onto the plains of the Serengeti. Thinking this way will make a whole lot of difference: we won’t polute the natural world with our humanistic values nor the burden of consciousness, which we bear admirably.

Adverbs of Modality such as “certainly”, “really”, “indeed” “hardly” “perhaps”, “maybe”, “fortunately”, “hopefully”, also give the game away about the ahthor’s attitude to what they are writing about.

5. Adverbs

Adverbs of Time, Place, Manner, Degree (either Intensifying or Diminishing), Reason and Modality… all open up the author’s head to a thorough examination. Because adverbs can modify verbs, adjectives, adverbs themselves as well as whole sentences, they are very versatile words and need to be seen as such – a powerful weapon in the author’s armoury. You must specify what type of adverb you are dealing with in each instance.

Probably, the greatest threat facing our planet is our apathy and refusal to take any interest in it.

The greatest threat facing our planet is probably our apathy and refusal to take any interest in it.

6. Prepositional Phrases / Adverbials

Prepositions (such as at, on, by, past, at, and after) are useful in that they head up adverbials. The easiest phrase to comment on are adverbials because they do the same job as adverbs in a sentence. As with adverbs, (and all other modifiers), they don’t need to be there, so why does the author feel the need for a whole extra phrase in that sentence? The answer will usually be very revealing.

Without doubt, the greatest threat facing our planet is our apathy and our refusal to take any interest in it.

With hatred in both eyes, little Johnny apologised to his grandmother.

7. Imperative Sentences

As with Declarative, Interrogative and Exclamatory sentences, the proportion of sentences with a particular function can be revealing, a text full of imperative sentences can only be trying to do one thing to the reader (even if doing so politely) – tell her what to do. Interrogative sentences could be up to much more.

Pour the flower in carefully.

Get the hell out of my head.

8. Subordinate Clauses

These are so common in every text that it may lead the analyst to ignore them. Every complex sentence has a main clause and a subordinate clause. Subordinate clauses can be identified by the connective which usually heads them; however, sometimes the subordinate clause and its connective can be separated which can make things a little more complicated. Once a subordinate clause is identified, it’s then left to explain its reason for existence. Subordinate clauses can give reasons, locations, times…

when there wasn’t a hope in hell.

because I really couldn’t give a damn.

            …as with all words, phrases or clauses some are more important that others, and it is this skill that is being tested as much as any other when you analyse a text. Choosing which twenty or se quotations to focus on is a skill that you must refine. Always ask yourself first what a text is trying to do and what strategies it is employing, then use this knowledge to choose the quotations you will focus on as you read through the text a second time – circling the twenty or so most important words, phrases or clauses.

9. Non-finite Clauses

Like prepositional phrases, non-finite clauses are phrases which are added at the beginning, the end or in the middle of a sentence, for a particular purpose. However, instead of modifying the sentence they hang onto it limpet like, they add an extra bit of action for the sentence’s subject, saying what else he or she or it is doing or being. Again, the question to ask of the author is: why bother adding this extra tit-bit?

Running out of time…

Loosing the feeling in his legs…

Looking for meaning in his life…

10. Verb Tense

Whether a text is in the present or the past can be a rather facile observation, but worth a punt in some cases. Where the precise time and the continuation of an action over time is important, you might want to note what the verb’s aspect is, whether it’s perfective – as marked by the auxiliary verb “have” – or the progressive – as marked by the auxiliary verb “be” and the “-ing” suffix.

I had been attending the AA meetings, but that was before I met Lola, who showed me how she had been discovering love in the bottom of a bottle.

11. Simple Sentences Vs Complex Sentences

A rather basic observation – what are complex sentences for but for putting forward complex ideas which cannot be handled by simple (or compound) sentences? And why limit yourself to simple sentences and lose so much expressive power?

I love you.

I love you because you are twelve percent better than Simon and fifteen percent better than Phil.

12. Active &Passive Voice

Nothing strikes fear into the heart of the human more than the active and passive voices. However, they can be easy to spot and can, at times, be very useful in understanding a text. The differences between the following sentences are all too obvious.

The active voice – the normal form:                                    Little Johnny killed the cat.

The passive voice – a choice which should be commented on:             

The cat was killed by little Johnny.

The passive voice with the agent dropped:                       The cat was killed.

The word to look out for is “by” – when the sentence’s subject has been torn from the front of the sentence and twisted into its object to meet the strange needs of the author. Of course, dropping the agent altogether, what should be the sentence’s active subject, is more than suspicious, it’s simply…

1. Basic issues of top-down analysis

1.1 Basic concepts of grammatical analysis

  • The premise of grammatical analysis: describe the grammatical structure of the language
    Use formal and finite automata to describe and recognize word symbols in language
    Use context-free grammar to describe grammatical rules
  • A context-free grammar G is a quaternion G=(VT,VN, S, P), where:
    VT: Terminal set (not empty)
    VN: Non-terminal symbol set (not empty), and VT∩VN=∅
    S: The beginning symbol of the grammar, S∈VN
    P: Set of productions (limited), each production has the form: P→α, P∈VN, α ∈ (VT∪VN)*
    The start symbol S must appear at least once on the left of a certain production
  • The task of grammatical analysis:
    Analyze the structure of a grammatical sentence
  • The function of the syntax analyzer:
    According to the production of the grammar (the grammatical rules of the language), identify whether the input symbol string is a sentence (well-formed program)
  • The position of the parser in the compiler

1.2 Methods of grammatical analysis

  • Top-down: Starting from the beginning symbol of the grammar, using various productions repeatedly to find the derivation of «matching»
    Derivation: According to the production rules of the grammar, replace the left part of the production in the string with the right part
    Starting from the root of the tree, construct a syntax tree
    Recursive descent analysis method, predictive analysis program
  • Bottom-up: Starting from the input string, gradually reduce until the beginning of the grammar
    Reduction: According to the production rules of the grammar, replace the right part of the production appearing in the string with the left part symbol
    Starting from the leaf node, construct the syntax tree
    Operator precedence analysis method, LR analysis method

1.3 Problems faced by top-down analysis

  • The basic idea of ​​top-down analysis:
    1. Starting from the beginning symbols of the grammar, deducing downwards, and deducing sentences
    2. For the input string, try to use all possible methods, starting from the symbol (root node) of the grammar, and build a syntax tree for the input string from top to bottom

1.3.1 Backtracking problem


Therefore, if a non-terminal symbol needs to be extended, but the non-terminal symbol has multiple extensions, how to make the correct choice and avoid unnecessary backtracking is an important problem facing the design of a top-down analysis program.


1.3.2 Left recursion problem of grammar


As a result, the grammar tree grows indefinitely, and word recognition has not progressed, causing the program to enter an endless loop.
We should construct top-down analysis algorithms without backtracking

  1. Eliminate left recursion in grammar
  2. Eliminate backtracking

2. LL (1) grammar-eliminate left recursion in grammar

2.1 Eliminate direct left recursion (left recursion becomes right recursion)

  • P→Pα | β
    After elimination:
    P→βP′
    P′→αP′ | ε
  • P→Pα1 | Pα2 | … | Pαm | β1 | β2 | … | βn
    After elimination:
    P →β1P′ | β2P′ | … |βnP′
    P′ → α1P′ | α2P′ |… |αmP′ | ε
  • Given grammar G(E):
    (1)E→E+T | T
    (2)T→T * F | F
    (3)F→(E) | i
    (1) Elimination: E→TE′, E′→+TE′ | ε
    (2) Elimination: T→FT′, T′→*FT′ | ε
    (3) No need to eliminate
    Get G(E) after elimination:
    E→TE′
    E′→+TE′ | ε
    T→FT′
    T′→ *FT′ | ε
    F→(E) | i

2.2 Eliminate indirect left recursion

  • Given grammar G(S):
    S→Qc|c
    Q→Rb|b
    R→Sa|a
  • There is no direct left recursion, but S, Q, R are all left recursive

  • In this way, indirect left recursion is broken.

Example: Eliminate left recursion in grammar G(S)
S → Qc | c
Q → Rb | b
R → Sa | a

  • We process in the order of R, Q, S
  • For R, the characters in the two candidate formulas are after the R order and do not need to be processed.
  • For Q, the second candidate is a terminal symbol and does not need to be processed. The first candidate has R, which is located before Q. Replace R with the definition of R: Q → Sab | ab | b
  • For S, the second candidate is a terminal symbol and does not need to be processed. The first candidate has Q, which is located in front of S. Replace Q with the definition of Q: S → Sabc | abc | bc | c, there is left recursion, which needs to be performed Direct left recursion elimination
  • Becomes: S → abcS’ | bcS’ | cS’, S’ → abcS’ | ε
  • At this time, the definitions of Q and R are redundant and can be deleted directly. The final grammar is:
    S → abcS’ | bcS’ | cS’,
    S’ → abcS’ | ε

  • Note that due to the different ordering of non-terminal symbols, the resulting grammar may be different in form. But it is not difficult to prove that they are all equivalent.

3. LL (1) Grammar-Eliminate Backtracking

  • In order to eliminate backtracking, it must be ensured that for any non-terminal symbol in the grammar, when it is required to match the input string, it can accurately assign one of its candidates to perform the task according to the input symbols it faces, and the candidate’s work result should be Certainly.

3.1 FIRST collection and extraction of common left factors

  • FIRST set: Let G be a grammar without left recursion. For each candidate α of all non-terminal symbols of G, define its terminal header set FIRST(α) as:
  • Extract the common left factor
  • Suppose the rule about A is
    A → δβ1 | δβ2 | … | δβn | γ1 | γ2 | … | γm(Where each γ does not start with δ)
    Then, these rules can be rewritten as:
    A → δA′ | γ1 | γ2 | … | γm
    A′ → β1 | β2 | … | βn

3.2 FOLLOW collection

3.3 LL (1) grammatical conditions

Construct grammatical conditions for top-down analysis without backtracking

  1. Grammar without left recursion
  2. For each non-terminal symbol A in the grammar, the set of candidate heads of each production is disjoint. That is, if A→α1 | α2 | … | αn
    Then FIRST(αi) ∩ FIRST(αj)=φ (i≠j)
  3. For each non-terminal symbol A in the grammar, if it has a candidate set containing ε, then
    FIRST(αi) ∩ FOLLOW(A)=φ,i=1,2,…,n
  • If a grammar G satisfies the above conditions, then the grammar G is called LL(1) grammar.
    The first L, represents left, scan the input string from left to right
    The second L, represents the analysis process is the leftmost derivation
    (1), which means that every time you analyze, you always find candidates based on the current word, that is, look forward one character
  • For LL(1) grammar, the input string can be effectively analyzed from top to bottom without backtracking.

4. Construction of FIRST and FOLLOW sets

4.1 Construction of FIRST set

4.1.1 α = X, X∈VT∪VN

  1. If X ∈ VT, Then FIRST(X)={X}.
  2. If X ∈ VN, And there is a production X→a…, then a is added to FIRST(X); if X→ε is also a production, then ε is also added to FIRST(X).
  • If X→Y…is a production and Y∈VN, Then all non-ε-elements in FIRST(Y) are added to FIRST(X);
  • If X→Y1Y2…Yi-1Yi…YkIs a production, Y1,…,Yi-1All wrong
    Terminator,
    (1) For any j, 1≤j≤i-1, FIRST(Yj) contains ε (ie Y1…Yi-1∗⇒ ε), then all non-ε-elements in FIRST(Yi) are added to FIRST(X)
    (2) If all FIRST(Yj) contain ε, j=1, 2,…,k, add ε to FIRST(X).

4.1.2 α = X1X2…Xn, Xi∈VT∪VN

  1. Set FIRST(α)=FIRST(X1) {ε};
  2. If for any 1≤j≤i-1, ε∈FIRST(Xj), then put FIRST(Xi) {ε} added to FIRST(α); in particular, if all FIRST(Xj) Contains ε, and 1≤j≤n, then ε is also added to FIRST(α). Obviously, if α=ε then FIRST(α)={ε}.

4.2 FOLLOW set construction

  1. For the start symbol S of the grammar, set # in FOLLOW(S);
  2. If A→αBβ is a production, add FIRST(β) {ε} to FOLLOW(B);
  3. If A→αB is a production, or A→αBβ is a production and β∗⇒ε (ie ε∈FIRST(β)), then add FOLLOW(A) to FOLLOW(B)

4.3 Example

  • For grammar G(E):
    E → TE′
    E′ → +TE′ | ε
    T → FT′
    T′ → *FT′ | ε
    F → (E) | i
  • FIRST(E) ={ (, i }
    FIRST(E′)={ +, ε }
    FIRST(T) ={ (, i }
    FIRST(T′)={ *, ε }
    FIRST(F) ={ (, i }
  • FOLLOW(E) ={ #, ) }
    FOLLOW(E′)={ #, ) }
    FOLLOW(T) ={ +, #, ) }
    FOLLOW(T′)={ +, #, ) }
    FOLLOW(F) ={ *,+, #, ) }
  • The FIRST set is the set of terminal heads of strings that can be derived from non-terminal symbols
    The FOLLOW set is the terminal symbol or the ‘#’ relationship that appears immediately after the nonterminal in all sentence patterns
  • The elements in the FOLLOW collection come from the FIRST collection
    And the FIRST set may contain ε, and the FOLLOW of the non-terminal symbol contains #

Generative Grammar A generative grammar
generates all the grammatical sentences of the language rejects all the ungrammatical ones It is free to choose and combine any of the techniques of breaking up and labeling Depending upon what tools the grammar combines, we have different types of grammar

21

Types of Generative Grammar
Finite State Model (sequential) Phrase Structure Model (sequential + hierarchical) Transformational Model (sequential + hierarchical + transformational)

22

Phrase Structure Model
Inadequacies Ambiguity Paraphrase Relationship Constructional Homonymy

23

Ambiguity If a sentence is understood to have two meanings, a grammar should give two corresponding structural descriptions PS grammar fails to meet this demand The shooting of the hunters The hunter shot someone Someone shot the hunters

24

NP PP NP Det N P NP Det N the shooting of the hunters

25

Paraphrase Relationship
If two sentences are understood to have the same meaning, a grammar should give the same structural description for the two sentences at some level PS grammar fails to meet this demand Examples The boy slapped the girl The girl was slapped by the boy

26

S VP NP Det N V NP Det N The boy slapped the girl

27

S VP NP Det N V PP Aux V P NP The girl was slapped by the boy

28

Constructional Homonymy
If two sentences are not understood the same way, a grammar should give two structural descriptions PS grammar cannot do this The audience was asked to leave by the side-door The audience was asked to leave by the chairman

29

The audience was asked to leave by the S VP NP V Inf. Phr Det N Aux V
PP P NP Det N The audience was asked to leave by the Side-door

30

The audience was asked to leave by the S VP NP V Inf. Phr Det N Aux V
PP P NP Det N The audience was asked to leave by the Chairman

31

Transformational Model
If a generative grammar makes use of all the three -sequential -hierarchical and -transformational is called a Transformational grammar.

32

Transformational model
PS model Makes use of PS rules exclusively PS rules generate surface structure Makes use of PS rules and transformational rules PS rules generate DS DS is converted into the surface structure by transformational rules

33

PS grammar Surface Structure PS rules Transformational grammar PS rules Transformation Deep Structure Surface Structure

34

Why wasn’t he punished? PS rules: S  NP – VP VP  V — NP – PP
V  Aux – V Aux (Tense)-(Modal)-(Perf)-(Prog) Tense  {pres/past} NP  (PreDet) — (Det) — (Ord) -(Quan) -(AP)-N Lexical substitution

35

S VP NP VG NP PP Aux V Tense Someone past punish him for some reason

36

Why wasn’t he punished? (…continued)
Transformations Passivization Agent deletion Negation Neg. Contraction Wh- substitution Interrogation Wh- fronting Affix switch

37

Passivization S VP NP VG PP PP Aux V P NP N Tense Pass for Some reason He past be en punish by someone

38

Agent Deletion S VP NP VG PP Aux V Tense Pass for some reason He past be en punish

39

Negation S VP NP VG PP Aux V Tense Pass for some reason He past be not en punish

40

Neg. Contraction S VP NP VG PP Aux V Tense Pass for some reason He past be’not en punish

    The Problem of Word Definition

    Approaches
    to the problem of word definition:
    the word is a semantic unit, a unit of meaning;
    the word is a marked phonological unit;
    the word is an indivisible unit.

    The item ice cream is:
    two orthographic words,
    but
    — a single phonological word (it is pronounced as a unit),
    — a single lexical item (it has its own entry in a dictionary),
    — a single GWF (indeed, it hardly has another form unless you think the plural ice cream is good English).

    The term «word-form“ shows that the word is a carrier of grammatical information.

    38 слайд

    The Notion of the Word -Form

    Grammatical meanings of a word-form are very abstract and general.
    They are peculiar of a whole class of words, unite it so that each word of the class expresses the corresponding grammatical meaning together with its individual, concrete semantics.

    40 слайд

    The Notion of the Word -Form

    Due to the generalized character of the plural, we say that different groups of nouns «take» this form with strictly defined variations in the mode of expression.
    The variations can be of more systemic (phonological conditioning) and less systemic (etymological conditioning) nature.

    The Notion of the Word -Form

    A word-form may be analytical by structure. In this case it is equivalent to one word as it expresses one unified content of a word, both from the point of view of grammatical and lexical meaning.
    E.g.: has spoken

    The Notion of the Word -Form

    Words (as well as morphemes) are directly observable units by nature as they are characterized by a definite material structure of their own.

    They can be registered and enumerated in any language.

    The Notion of the Word -Form

    The system of morphological units is a closed system. It means that all its items are on the surface and can be embraced in an inventory of forms.

    50 слайд

    The Notion of Grammatical Meaning
    Grammatical (morphological) meaning is not individual.

    It is the meaning of the whole class or a subclass
