In syntax, verb-second (V2) word order is a sentence structure in which the finite verb of a sentence or a clause is placed in the clause's second position, so that the verb is preceded by a single word or group of words (a single constituent). Examples of V2 in English include (brackets indicating a single constituent): * "Neither do I", "[Never in my life] have I seen such things" If English used V2 in all situations, the following would be correct: * "*[In school] learned I about animals", "*[When she comes home from work] takes she a nap" V2 word order is common in the Germanic languages and is also found in Northeast Caucasian Ingush, Uto-Aztecan O'odham, and fragmentarily in Romance Sursilvan (a Rhaeto-Romansh variety) and Finno-Ugric Estonian. Of the Germanic family, English is exceptional in having predominantly SVO order instead of V2, although there are vestiges of the V2 phenomenon. Most Germanic languages do not normally use V2 order in embedded clauses, with a few exceptions. In particular, German, Dutch, and Afrikaans revert to VF (verb final) word order after a complementizer; Yiddish and Icelandic do, however, allow V2 in all declarative clauses: main, embedded, and subordinate. Kashmiri (an Indo-Aryan language) has V2 in 'declarative content clauses' but VF order in relative clauses. (Wikipedia).
The syntactic classification of languages is by and large based on their word order. How do we establish the basic word order of a language and how additional head-modifier constructions may supplement the central ordering patterns constitutes the focus of this E-Lecture. A special feature

It is usually assumed that the sentence is the highest-ranking unit of syntax. However, not all sentences are structurally complete. For this reason, a distinction is drawn between two sentence types: minor and major sentences. This clip discusses the central properties of these two senten

In this video, I give an elegant solution to 3blue1brown's colliding block problem using linear algebra. More precisely, I first find the matrix A that encodes the whole process and show that we basically just need to find A^n, and I then do that by diagonalizing A, and finally I use some
