المشاركة الأصلية كتبت بواسطة LoLa LiciouSeS eg: *the PRO cat sat ti on the mat ti pro. why is it ungrammatical..??? because there are two noun phrases the PRO is noun phrase cat is also noun phrase pronouns always come instead of noun phrase not with it ...

That is completely right .. so if we say :

I like that great giant tree ...
LoLa like (it) too ..

(it) here equal to ( great gaint tree) .. and so on ..

المشاركة الأصلية كتبت بواسطة ioooi Thanx for the explanition but i still kinda confused about it can u explain this to me the interpratation of PRO can either be arbitary or conrolled by another np pro can be conrolled but not bound pro is licensed by rich agreement specification

First ..

arbitrary means

it's just come like this

and there is no specific role for that ..

or the pro could be controlled

by another NOUN PHRASE

just like the e.g i post in my previous reply.
