I know that many, if not most of us tend to get a bit colloquial in email;
however, seeing the phrase "I agree with Janet calling" in lieu of "I agree
with Janet's calling" leads me to ask whether the sentence has a typo or
has the current teaching of English grammar dropped the usage of possessive
before gerund.  I am rooting for the typo: I make enough of those myself.
At work I never signed off on a paper until I saw it in hard copy.  One
would not believe the errors that I caught just in my own work.  My
favorite was a comma in a legal paper specifying exactly the quality and
amount of work to be performed by a contractor on a multimillion dollar
contract that would have released the contractor from any obligation to
comply with the performance standards that governed the contract.  Both
the contact specialist and the federal lawyer objected until I asked them
to sign an acknowledgement that they had read my warning and chose to
disregard it.

Subject: Re: he was run over/he got run over

   A few more observations about "got." In English, there is often an
ambiguity about whether a past participle after the "be" auxiliary is
adjective or part of the verb phrase. "The beer got drunk" is passive,
but what about "Paul got drunk" or "Paul was drunk"? "Paul got sick" is
not passive, but what about "Paul got lost"? We can substitue "become"
without feeling as though the meaning has changed. "Paul became lost."
Does that mean we are shifting "lost" to adjective status or was it an
adejective all along? "The child was lost during a shopping trip" seems
passive, but "That child is lost" does not, at least to me. But context
might change either.
   Biber et. al. in the Longman grammar say "many of these verbs have a
different emphasis when used with the get-passive. With "be", they
express a state, such as the state of 'being married' or 'being
involved'. With "get", they are more dynamic, describing the process of
getting into that state" (Student version, pages 171-2).  Think, for
example, of the difference between "was involved" and "got involved."
The second certainly implies some sort of volition on the part of the
actor.
   "He was so stupid. He got fired on the first day."
   "He was so unlucky. He was fired on the first day."
   To me, the "got" goes best with the notion that "he" did something to
deserve it.
   Sometimes we get hung up trying to classify a word or phrase in one
category or another, forgetting that our categories may be limiting
what we are able to understand.
   The language is under no obligation to conform to our ideas about it.

Subject: Re: he was run over/he got run over

The passive is traditionally thought of as formed with be + passive partici=
ple of transitive verb.  The form with get + participle would be a periphra=
stic equivalent having a modal sense including the idea of volition or inte=
nt.  At the risk of widening  this thread to other verb phrases with modal =
sense, ATEGers might consider how they approach the following expressions. =
 Do we leave them out of the formal styles that are most acceptable in so m=
any writing assignments?=20=20

I think that there are quite a few expressions in English that might be cla=
ssed as periphrastic equivalents to the five modal verbs of a) will/would, =
b) shall/should, c) can/could, d) may/might, and e) must.  These seem to fa=
ll into eight formal categories so that there could be as many as 40 possib=
ilities.  Some must fall together, as there are only the following 20 kinds=
 that I have noted.  Perhaps ATEGers can suggest others or some other class=
ification or mistakes in these.

1) a) like to go, want to go; b) ought to go; d) get to go; e) have to go, =
need to go, deserve to go;=20
2) a) be to go; e) be to go;=20
3) a) be willing to go; b) be supposed to go; c) be able to go, be free to =
go; d) be privileged to go;=20
4) a) be about to go;=20
5) a) be going to go, be fixing to go;=20
6) b) be obliged to go; c) be allowed to go; d) be allowed to go; e) be mad=
e to go;=20
7) e) have got to go, had ought to go;=20

I worry that to some on the list this may sound like we should not be  
concerned with surface error.  Based on past discussions with Craig,  
I'm fairly certain he doesn't mean this, but only means that to limit  
our concern to surface error is to leave out much that is rich and  
interesting about how the language works.  I would argue that helping

Subject: Re: On the importance of the competence-performance distinction for
language teachers

Bill and Craig,

Thank you both for your thoughtful replies to my post on the importance
of the competence-performance for language teachers.

I used sentence (1),  a real sentence written by an L1 Chinese student
I'm teaching this semester.

1) They are not agree with the Input Hypothesis.

I proposed that the error in (1) is not with "are" but the student's
underlying representation of the work "agree."  The student told be for
her  "agree" is an adjective.  Among other things, I noted correcting
"are" and replacing with "do" would not really help this student because
such a correction does not provide her with the explanation why the
"are" is incorrect here.

Craig noted:
 It's  certainly good to be reminded that merely correcting the surface
errors on a text isn't good pedagogical practice. I'm not sure
"competence" and  "performance" are the best terms to account for a
connection between what a student does and what he/she understands, but
it all makes sense.=20

***
Of course, he is right.  In this case the "surface error" -- "are"
should be "do" is not correct.  I wish he had provided his understanding
of why the student wrote (1) in the first place.

In this regard, Bill's response is more interesting.  I wish he had
written more.

Bill notes correctly with the competence/performance distinction.=20

>>> "Spruiell, William C" <[log in to unmask]> 2/23/2009 12:56 PM >>>

If you're claiming that only a competence/performance-distinguishing
model can deal with those phenomena, you're wrong. If you're claiming
that we can deal with them only by talking about what speakers seem to
think/assume/believe about a language -- i.e., that we have to make some
statements about internal states if we're making other than purely
descriptive statements -- you're right. But *lots* of theories,
including most functionalist ones, are in the same camp you are on that
one.

****
He is, of course, right that other theories posit internal states  that
are the result of input and not the result of some innate knowledge of
principles of language.  I tried to address such an alternative
explanation in my original post.  I want to consider the alternative
account that Bill provides:

I should probably clarify my comments a bit. You'll notice toward the
end of that earlier post, I throw in the following:

>>I think functionalists in general don=E2=80=99t mind claiming that
performance=20
>>(including comprehension in a social context, rather than just=20
>>production) partly creates competence as an epiphenomenon...<<

The "partly" was there by intention, as was the entailment that
competence exists (you can't create something that is
nonexistent....well, barring certain interpretations of null-elements).
Obviously, native speakers do have the ability to recognize if novel
strings are acceptable in their language or not. Production and
comprehension appear to conform to certain norms, and it's hard to deal
with that without positing some kind of "rest state" system (not
impossible, since I *think* Eco's semiotics manages it, but I'm by no
means positive). Functionalists tend to think the fundamental
characteristics of that system are determined by general cognitive
constraints together with *meaningful* interaction with other speakers,
rather than by the operation of a specific-only-to-language module on a
semantically neutral set of input strings. If for "competence" we
substitute "how one expects the language to act, given what's gone
before," we've got something closer to the functionalist conception (or
at least, my version of it).
***

I want to consider Bill's functionalist explanation for how we come to
what we know about language and what that means for BOTH the student and
the teacher's knowledge of the language.

If "meaningful" interaction and general cognitive constraints are what
determines what we know about language , we have to be puzzled why any
student would write (1).  We can be pretty confident that a student in
the States would never encounter such a sentence like (1) with just
"agree."  As I noted in my original post, (2) and (3) are possible.

(2) They are not agreeing with the Input Hypothesis.
(3) They are not in agreement with the Input Hypothesis.

Because, I think, a functionalist explanation tries to avoid abstract
representations, my explanation of why the student wrote (1) -- agree is
an adjective - is not a possible functionalist explanation.  I'm not a
functionalists, so here is my question: What are the general cognitive
constraints operating in "meaningful interaction," that resulted in this
student concluding agree is an adjective?  I wish I could read a
plausible functionalist account.=20

Now let's consider the teacher's response to (1) from the functionalist
explanation.  As native speakers we are confronted with a sentence we
have never encountered before in any meaningful interaction.  Although
we understand it, we recognize it is ungrammatical because ARE should be
DO. So, we cross out ARE and write DO.  If the only thing we know about
language is through meaningful interaction and general cognitive
constraints, how do we even suppose that (1) is the result of the writer
having the wrong category for "agree."   Those categories are merely the
result of an epiphenomona of the frequencies we have unconsciously noted
in the language.  As a teacher considering this string and whose
knowledge of English is the result of interactions, we also realize that
(1) is just as likely the result of the student meaning to write (2) and
(3).  We now have to decide how many possibilities we put on the
student's paper to indicate why (1) is not English.  Again, I'm not a
functionalist, so I feel very uncomfortable providing explanations for a
perspective I don't know very well.  I want to be corrected if I have
misstated anything.

I am a language teacher; I teach both native and non-native speakers of
English and I teach about the nature of language to pre-service teachers
who will be teaching both native and non-native speakers.   I have to
respond to texts that contain strings that no mature writer would write.
 I have tried to show here how the assumption that our knowledge of
language (both mine as a teacher and that of my students) has both a
competence  and performance distinction informs my responses.

I suspect that those who deny the competence-performance distinction
respond to texts differently.  I'm trying to figure what the differences
are to evaluate which view of language is more helpful to me as a=20
teacher.

Subject: Re: On the importance of the competence-performance distinction for
language teachers

Peter,
   I think you and I are in agreement in lots of ways, so I welcome this
formulation of it. I would tend to rephrase it a little. I believe it's
important for students to gain a working feel for Standard English and
for the routine conventions of writing, including punctuation. I don't
think that just "happens", but I also don't think just correcting
errors on a paper is an effective approach. A more operative question
might be "what do students need to know" to accomplish those goals.
  Writing effectively involves moving closer and closer to an unreachable
target. In that larger sense, error will always be a part of it. We need
ways to talk about revising sentences, looking at grammatical choices
and their contribution to the unfolding purposes of the text. If we
reduce gramamr to "error", we will miss that.
   I am trying to teach writing without "error" or "correct" in the
vocabulary. Language can be grammatical or ungrammatical, standard or
non-standard, effective or ineffective, and I try to use those as
separate lenses.
  But I would agree very much with your premises. If our students are
expected to gain some facility with standard English, then we should
find out how to get them there. If they are expected to punctuate
effectively, then we should try to figure out the best ways to help them
accomplish that. If they are expected to be able to present their own
views within the ongoing conversation of a discipline, then we should
know how to mentor that process as well.
   What I like about what you're doing (how's the book coming?) is that
you are trying to demystify the process. As you work that out over
time, I expect that many of us will find it useful,

Craig
