Linguists
define language as a means to communicate. There are many varieties of language
in the world; each one is somewhat independent in some aspects, but generally
shares some characteristics with all the others. Languages also tend to impact
each other in various ways, especially by “borrowing” words through technology
and politics. There is no doubt that every language has its own set of rules
and characteristics such as grammar, sentence structure, and phonetics. This
paper examines the structure of verb phrases in the Kurdish language — the
paper will clarify just what a verb phrase is. The X-Bar theory is used to
illustrate the structure of verb phrasing in the Kurdish language. This theory
dictates that each sentence structure has a “head,” and all other sentence
components are under the rule of this head.
In sentences, the verb is the head and rules the sentence while in
phrases, the head is usually either the noun or the verb. This research will
illuminate the structure of verb phrasing in the Kurdish language and compare
it with that of the English language.
