Exercise 3.1
a. |
A blend of the initial CV (consonant and vowel) of what and the final C of which to form watch. |
---|---|
b. |
A substitution of tree for roof. Both are nouns and so either is syntactically okay in the context. |
c. |
An exchange of the stems learn and need. Note that the suffixes (-er and -s) are stranded, i.e. remain in their place in the sentence frame. |
d. |
A substitution of maid for music. Both maid and music can occur in expressions where they immediately follow that word. |
e. |
An exchange of wine and dinner. Both are nouns that have been selected for output in the sentence but they are put into the wrong 'slot'. |
f. |
An anticipation of the noun player which appears in the slot where the nounpeople should be. Note that player is made plural, matching the plural noun people. This error was self-corrected and is actually ambiguous as it could have been an interrupted exchange of player and people. |
g. |
A perseveration of gym which appears both where it should be and in the position (as seen from the self-correction) of piscine. |
