Description
Excerpt from The Essentials of the English Sentence
A system Of diagraming has been suggested in foot notes. While the method of expressing syntactical relations by the diagram is subject to abuse, it may be made very useful. Let it be understood that the dia gram is only a graphic method Of expressing analysis, let the meaning of position in the diagram be fully understood, and the diagram becomes a very economi cal device; but as soon as it becomes an end in itself, as soon as it is made to control rather than to express analyses, the diagram had better be abandoned.
