Đặc điểm cú pháp của các mẫu động từ đơn trong các bản tình ca tiếng Anh

Abstract

This article presents the results of research on the syntactic patterns of single-word lexical verbs in English love songs. We explore all the types of patterns for single-word lexical verbs and the extent to which each type of pattern is used. The overall aim of the study is to provide information about the frequency of single-word lexical verb patterns, so that those with an academic interest will find it useful to know which types of lexical verb patterns occur commonly as well as which are rare in English love songs. In addition, research also helps English learners have a full understanding of the syntactic features of verb patterns in which a single-word lexical verb can be used. The findings hold pedagogical implications to the use of English songs in teaching and learning of EFL.
