Levels of Constituent Structure challenges the foundations of the established grammars of New Testament Greek. Dr. Palmer demonstrates the sound empirical basis for word-level grammatical categories such as noun and verb as well as phrase-level categories. His analysis, however, shows that such categories are inadequate for explaining some obvious features of New Testament Greek. Using assumptions from generative linguistics and abundant empirical evidence drawn from New Testament texts, he argues that these two levels of grammatical categories must be supplemented by a third level between words and full phrases.
