The learning goals for today’s session are:
1 To understand how the grammatical system of (‘Satzmodus’)expresses the of the individual moves in adialogue (Statement, Question, Offer, Suggestion, Command).
2 To analyse the Mood–Residue structure of clauses.3 To understand the function of the Subject and the Finite.4 To practise paradigms of different moods and tenses
(WORKSHEET–IN CLASS):http://www.spence.saar.de/courses/grammar/unit04a/paradigms.pdf
5 To learn to recognize negative imperatives (“Don’t you step on myblue suede shoes!”)

with the grammatical system network for :

There is no special grammatical category for Offers. Offers can be expressed inmany different ways: “Shall I do it?” / “I’ll do it!” / “Here!” / etc.

Meaning of the Finite
The Finite element makes the proposition finite:• circumscribes the proposition.• brings the proposition down to earth, so that it can be arguedabout
• gives the proposition a point of reference in the here-and-now:1 by reference to the time of speaking: PRIMARY TENSE (the old man
was crossing the road)2 by reference to the judgement of the speaker: MODALITY (it can’t be
true).

Meaning of the Subject
“The Subject supplies the rest of what it takes to form a proposition:namely, something by reference to which the proposition can beaffirmed or denied.”“It is perhaps easier to see this principle of responsibility in a proposal(a ‘goods-&-services’ clause), where the Subject specifies the one that isactually responsible for realizing (i.e. in this case, for carrying out) theoffer or command. For example, in I’ll open the gate, shall I? (offer) theopening depends on me; in Stop shouting, you over there! (command) itis for you to desist or otherwise.”

is the system of ‘yes’ and ‘no’.Your Worksheet contains examples of unmarked and marked positive,and unmarked and marked negative forms.In formal written English, it is impossible to distinguish betweenunmarked negative and marked negative. Traditional formal grammarstherefore recognize only the ‘marked positive’, sometimes labelling itthe ‘Emphatic Mood’.

Ellipsis of (part or all of) the Mood
For any clause, there is one choice of Subject that is ‘unmarked’—thatis assumed, in the absence of evidence to the contrary. In a giving clause(offer or statement), the unmarked Subject is ‘I’; while in a demandingclause (question or command), the unmarked Subject is ‘you’.
