predicate language
1.Noun-predicate sentences in Chinese are characterized by their simple structure with noun-centered predicates, in which the noun phrases can be modified by adverbs, while the subject and the predicate, with “Shi (be)" and “You (have)" in between, are free to choose. Such sentences, often used affirmatively in spoken language, mainly express the concepts of characteristics, sameness, classification, existence and comments. Noun-predicate sentences are absolute constructions.
2.We can prove by using the connection and comparison of the language that the word "de" in the sentence structune is not an auxiliary word referring to the word group consisting of a modifier and the word it modifies, nor is the word group structure consisting of a modifier and the word it modifies or a composition of substantive simply. Instead, they are comparatively special subject-predicate sentence pattern, in which the relationship between N and V is various.
