English Sentence Architecture

 

There's only one English sentence architecture : subject, verb, and object

• subject : the source of energy
• verb : the flow of energy ~> "actualize concept into energy"
• object : the destination(= target) of energy

So, noun can be defined as `concept`

Transitive verb vs. Intransitive verb

• Transitive means '전이되는', so transitive verb can be described as transfering energy from one to another
  • ex. The boy broke the window
• Intransitive means '전이되지 않는', so intransitive verb can be described as preserving energy derived from itself
  • ex. Glass broke easily
