2009, Jacob Wackernagel, Lectures on Syntax
The two-and-a-half lectures on the personal forms of the verb begin with some general remarks on the history of the subject, on the forms of the verb attested,and on the use of the personal pronouns. Uses of the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd persons, singular and plural, are discussed and illustrated. The end of Lecture 20 and the start of 21 are devoted to impersonal verbs (especially but not only weather verbs).

The two-and-a-half lectures on the personal forms of the verb begin with some general remarks on the history of the subject,on the forms of the verb attested, and on the use of the personal pronouns. Uses of the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd persons, singular and plural, are discussed and illustrated. The end of Lecture 20 and the start of 21 are devoted to impersonal verbs (especially but not only weather verbs).
Several researchers have pointed out that the verbal group, being an obligatory element of the clause structure, carries high syntactic and semantic loads. As such, it is an area of maximum divergence and one of the most difficult aspects to master particularly by learners of English as a second language. On this note, this paper discusses the English auxiliary verbs, being integral components of the verbal group. The discussion is done through reviewing the works of different authors on the auxiliaries distinguishing the two sets-the primary auxiliaries (have, be & do) and the modal auxiliaries (can, could, dare, may, might, must, need, ought, shall, should, will & would). Each set of the auxiliaries are discussed with much emphasis on different usages to illustrate how crucial the auxiliaries are, as far as the conjugation of the verbal group is concerned.

Introduction: The Form and Function of Denominal Verb Constructions2008 •
The aim of this paper is to present a detailed analysis of the nominalized communicative objects in the ‘Reaction Object Construction’ (‘He snorted his disapproval’), based on the examination of over 2000 constructions extracted from the Corpus of Contemporary American English. The construction fuses two predicates in one: a typically intransitive verb expressing non-verbal manner of communication (gesture or sound), and a non-subcategorized object conceived as an abbreviated communicative act. The conversion of this communicative event into a nominal unit involves different morphological, syntactic and semantic processes.
