	Patient Griselda's Guide to Grammar
		Yet, in spite of her sterling character, the marquis tests her loyalty and obedience by removing from her household, one by one, her son and daughter and then by sending her home, covered only by a thin slip, to her father's rustic hut.
		After this series of tests prompts a response similar to that of the Bible's patient Job, Griselda finds her happiness restored.
		For the sake of this tutorial, it is important to remember that Griselda has infininite patience in explaining grammatical rules and presenting those subtle distinctions in usage that will help you to express yourself clearly and articulately.

	Object (grammar) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Ditransitive verbs have two objects, a patient and a recipient.
		In many languages, the patient of a ditransitive verb is marked in the same way as the single object of a monotransitive verb, and is called the direct object.
		The patient of ditransitive verbs has its own marking, and is called the secondary object.

	Patient (grammar) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In certain languages, the patient is declined or otherwise marked to indicate its grammatical role.
		In Japanese, for instance, the patient is typically affixed with the hiragana ã (pronounced "o").
		The grammatical patient is often confused with the direct object, but there is a slight difference: the former is based explicitly on its relationship to the verb, whereas the latter is based primarily on its relationship to the subject.

	Event Construal and Case Role Assignment
		A fundamental problem which has prevented the development of a widely-accepted generative case grammar is the lack of a principled basis for determining the semantic content of case roles, and thus for identifying the roles played particular arguments of clauses.
		I patiently explained that in this case the ball was what underwent the change of state, and was therefore the Patient, while the window in this sentence is simply a description of the path, and thus a Locative.
		The generative conception of Case Grammar is regarded in many quarters as discredited on grounds of the apparent difficulty of developing a limited set of semantically-definable categories in terms of which morphosyntactic facts can be systematically explained.

	Predicates and Arguments
		This grammar distinguishes between the basic means by which arguments of a predicate are expressed, and more specialized means that have definite semantic restrictions.
		Conversely, simply to note that the dragon is the ‘direct object’ in (1) and (2) and the ‘subject’ in (3) fails to recognize that its semantic role is invariant in all three sentences.
		The advantage of having arbitrary labels for the syntactic functions A and P rather than using the semantic roles agent and patient is that we can continue to use the arbitrary symbols even when we pass beyond the prototypical transitive constructions to other constructions that have similar morphology and syntax.

		The roles typically associated with transformed-verbs are "agent", "patient", and "instrument".
		Also, because this grammar could be used with many independent vocabularies, emphasizing vocabulary would have diminished one of it's strengths.
		Since the grammar is similar in some ways -- HTML also uses role / part pairs, though they don't call them that -- they should co-operate nicely.

		If both agent and patient are present, the patient is in the accusative case.
		The trigger may be identified as the agent, patient, etc. Other nouns may be inflected for case, but the inflections are overloaded; for example, in Tagalog, the subject and object of a verb are both expressed in the genitive case when they are not in the trigger case.

		It is situated near the bladder and, when enlarged, can force the patient to relieve an irritated bladder, resulting in nightly trips across the landing to the lavatory.
		Gradually, the patient will not only have to urinate more frequently but will also suffer from a sense of urgency and have to constantly keep within hailing distance of a lavatory.
		As the patient gets older, the patient may not be able to urinate at all, which can be an agonising experience.

	Using Speech Recognition with Microsoft English Query (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
		Dictation grammar defines a context for the speaker by identifying the subject of the dictation, the expected language style, and the dictation that's already been performed.
		Limited-domain grammar is a hybrid between a context-free grammar and a full dictation grammar.
		Because a context-free grammar allows a speech recognition engine to reduce the number of recognized words to a predefined list, high levels of recognition can be achieved in a speaker-independent environment.

	Writing Sentences: Introduction: Introduction
		The grammar and punctuation of sentences are inextricably linked in written language.
		The grammar of English determines the way we put words together to create meaningful sentences: spoken sentences and written sentences.
		Punctuation can greatly alter the meaning of a sentence; therefore, it is useful to be aware of the grammar and punctuation errors that commonly occur in academic writing.

		This is possible, because the action of perceiving the man can be the patient to the verb `good' (Note that man see me good is also a correct translation for `It is good that a man sees me', with a slightly different meaning, see Section 5.1.1 for details).
		verbs never have two patients directly, the curried version (a verb that takes a patient and yields a verb that takes a patient) does exist and, of course, is isomorphic.
		For clarification, an auxiliary is often used to attach the second patient, usually either `to harass', `to please' or `to control'.

		For the 'ObservationResult' table, the former table mappings should still be valid because the grammar root remains at the OBX segment.

		He attended a Latin school, in which the Ten Commandments, "Child's Belief", the Lord's Prayer, the Latin grammar of Donatus were taught, and which he learned quickly.
		Cajetan came to adjudicate, Luther to defend; the former demanded submission, the latter launched out into remonstrance; the one showed a spirit of mediating patience, the other mistook it for apprehensive fear; the prisoner at the bar could not refrain from bandying words with the judge on the bench.
		The legate, with the reputation of "the most renowned and easily the first theologian of his age", could not fail to be shocked at the rude, discourteous, bawling tone of the friar, and having exhausted all his efforts, he dismissed him with the injunction not to call again until he recanted.

	Vilani Grammar (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
		4a) It should be noted that topicalization of patients fulfils the same discourse function as use of the passive does in English: it allows highlighting of the patient rather than the agent of a verbal action.
		The fourth gender (usually called in Vilani grammars "anaphoric gender") always signals a "switch" in reference to the previous individual discussed; it thus has a sense of "the other one", with almost an "anti-reflexive" force.
		Vilani grammar assumes that Flavia, having been the object of the transitive verbs "sing something" and "prefer something the most", keeps the S/O role and will be the O of a following transitive verb "sell something" unless explicitly stated otherwise.
