Count sentences
a) Consider each verb as a sentence. For example, Ali went to school and studied. (It has two verbs and two sentences.)
We should also be careful about the verbs that are removed by analogy. For example, warriors on the front used to pray and read the Quran. He came to school and then studied.
We draw the opinion of respected colleagues to the point that infinitives should not be considered as verbs because infinitives have neither time nor person (they do not have the characteristics of verbs).
For example, eating and drinking too much makes a person sick. (It is a sentence.)
b) We consider each pseudo-sentence as a sentence.
In the definition of pseudo-sentence, we say: “Words that have a complete meaning without being accompanied by a verb. Because they are similar in meaning to a sentence. So in terms of structure, they are not like sentences, but in terms of meaning, they are similar to sentences.
There are three types of pseudo-sentences:
1) Sound: words used to express emotions and feelings in different situations, such as anger, surprise, protest, expression of pain, and the like, and usually include: akh, de, wai, veh, avakh. . .
2) Non-sound: It is a common language word that performs the work of a sentence. In non-sound, we do not emphasize only on the sound, but we focus on the meaning, concept and message more. Such as: hello, greetings, well done, alas, wonder, silent, shy, muffled, warning, zinhar, wish, attack and so on. . .
3) Menada: It is considered a sentence, whether with or without a manada.
For example: the story and the hadith of the dragon (he said) he said, “Remove from me the heart of fools” (manada) five sentences
I wish (unvoiced) one day you will reach your goal. Children (manada), this is my wish, four sentences.
Final word: If a student asks where is the entity and proposition of the pseudo-sentence? In response, we say: because pseudo-sentences are similar to sentences in terms of meaning, but they are not similar to sentences in terms of structure, they have neither entity nor proposition.
Recognizing the number of sentences in prose and prose
To determine the number of sentences in prose and prose, we do the following.
First, we read the verbs of the text. We have as many sentences as there are verbs.
: head to the bed, leave me alone: we see that it has three verbs.
So this stanza is three sentences.
A fisherman without a day will not catch fish in the Tigris, and a fish without life will not die on land.
Then we check whether the desired phrase has an omitted verb or not.
Example
They said to one: What did the world do without action? He said: To the honeyless bee.
There are three verbs. Therefore, we definitely have three sentences. But understand with a little care
we become that the place of a verb is empty. yes At the end of the phrase.
He said: To the honeyless bee. So according to the omitted verb, four sentences
we have
Example
I told him, do you have the determination of the country? He said yes.
We see that we have three verbs and three sentences. But one verb is omitted:
. Yes (I have).
Therefore, this stanza has four sentences.
Example
A pasture is a thousand times better than a field
But he does not have a horse in his hands
We don’t have more than one verb and one sentence. But if we look carefully, we see that in the first stanza,
The verb (is) is omitted.
A pasture is a thousand times better than a field.
Menada is considered as a sentence:
You told me to sit down or die
I command you to sit down and get up. = seven sentences.
Pseudo-sentences are also considered as a sentence.
Example
Well done! You have drawn a beautiful picture: two sentences
Sometimes documentary verbs are abbreviated. (M = I am,,
y = existence, nd = are, ym = we are). These are also verbs, but to
Abbreviated form.
Example
I said: Condemnation of these people is justified because God is generous. He said you said wrong
I am sick. (are)
Example
There is a time when I was thinking about you (I am) = two sentences.
Sometimes a sentence is just a verb. In other words, although the verbs to
If they are placed alone in a phrase, they are considered a sentence.
Example
I said I am sad for you, he said you will be sad
I said to be my month, he said if it comes.
The above stanza is eight sentences.
