The distributional model (Ch.Fries «The Structure of English», 1952.
The sentence structure is described as a sequence of words of this-or-that part of speech reference used in this-or-that form
The old man saw a black dog there
D 3 1 a 2d D 3 1 b 4
It was used to identify parts of speech:
4 main positions in the sentence à 4 classes of words: class 1, class 2, class 3, class 4
Plus-points: … … …
Weak points: … … …
Types of distribution
Type of distribution | Plane of expression | Plane of content (meaning) | Position / environment |
Contrastive | … | … | same |
e.g. … … … | |||
… (~ free variants of the same model / morpheme) | different | … | … |
e.g. … … … | |||
Complementary (~ allomorphs of the same morpheme) | … | same | … |
e.g. … … … |

SEMANTIC STRUCTURE
Semantic model of analysis is rooted in:
Valency theories – L. Tésniere Eléments de syntaxe structurale (1959)
Case Grammar – first introduced by the representatives of generative grammar.
Case Grammar was devised by Charles Fillmore − The Case for Case (1968), The Case for Case Reopened (1977)
Semantic classifications of verbs – W.Chafe Meaning and Structure of Language (1975)
Upgrading of the theory – … … …
Semantically the sentence was described (Ch.Fillmore) as S = Proposition + modality
Proposition is … … …
Modality – … … …
Sentences name situations / events.
Elements of the situation and members of the proposition

Semantic predicates and semantic arguments − frames
Correlation of syntactic and semantic structures of the sentence:
Bob opened the door with the key
synt. subj. obj. prep. obj.
sem. agent object instrument
The key opened the door
synt. subj. object
sem. instrument object
Tom knows the answer
synt. subj. object
sem. experiencer phenomenon
