它其实并没有多么硬核技术向，只是力求做到全面而简练。如果你想要极其硬核的，去读读 Pullum 在《Cambridge Grammar of the English Language》里对被动语态的解释。
It's not really deeply technical, it's just trying to be comprehensive and concise. If you want deeply technical, read Pullum's explanation of passives in Cambridge Grammar of the English Language.
噢，当然了，任何语言都是如此！在你提到的这个例子中，我注意到 Huddleston 和 Pullum 在他们的《Cambridge Grammar of the English Language》中专门把“some”称为存在限定词（existential determiner）。一如他们的一贯水准，这是个极具洞察力的观察：你用“some <名词>”专门就是为了表达存在某个集合的事物是从……
Oh, certainly, as is the case for any language! In the case you mention, I note that Huddleston & Pullum in their Cambridge Grammar of the English Language specifically call ‘some’ an existential determiner. As is usual with them, this is an insightful observation: you use ‘some <noun>’ specifically in order to say that there exists some set of things drawn…
……受雇于该组织。比如，‘微软[公司]的政策是……’通常会和‘微软那些制定政策的人’混淆或附会在一起。顺便提一句，我把《The Cambridge Grammar of the English Language》作为我的语法参考书，大约二十年前这本书出版后不久，我就买了这本1800多页的大部头。这是有史以来最权威的英语语法参考书，它……
…employed by the organization. For example, 'the policy of Microsoft [corp] is that…' is typically confused or confabulated with, say, those at Microsoft who determine policy'. Incidentally, I use The Cambridge Grammar of the English Language as my grammar reference, I purchased my copy of this 1800-plus page tome not long after it was published about two decades ago. It's the most authoritative reference to English grammar ever written, it's…
……Luck》，之前在 Hacker News 上讨论过。[1] 作者是一位知名且极具影响力的英语学者，也是最权威的英语语法书《The Cambridge Grammar of the English Language》的共同编者。唉，虽然 Pullum 是个极其敏锐的语言学者（语言学家），但他并不能算是精通多国语言的人（polyglot），他对英语缺陷的许多观点……
…Luck," previously discussed on Hacker News.[1] The author is a renowned and very influential scholar of the English language, co-editor of the most authoritative grammar of the English language, the The Cambridge Grammar of the English Language. Alas, although Pullum is a very astute scholar of language (linguist), he is not a polyglot (learner of other languages) to any particular degree, and many of his points about the defects of English…
这篇文章的作者也是《The Cambridge Grammar of the English Language》的合著者 http://www.cambridge.org/uk/linguistics/cgel/ 。遗憾的是，作者并没有推荐能替代 Strunk & White《Elements of Style》的好书。
The author of this essay is also the co-author of The Cambridge Grammar of the English Language http://www.cambridge.org/uk/linguistics/cgel/ Unfortunately, the author doesn't recommend a good alternative to Strunk & White's Elements of Style.
……是适合你的，直到你精通这门语言。引述：------ Geoffrey K. Pullum 是爱丁堡大学语言学与英语语言系主任，也是《The Cambridge Grammar of the English Language》（剑桥大学出版社，2002年）的合著者（与 Rodney Huddleston 合著）。----- 啊，好吧。那就是《Cambridge Grammar of the English Language》。（不，说真的，英式英语 is different from……抱歉，different than 美式英语。）
…are for you until you master the language. Quote: ------ Geoffrey K. Pullum is head of linguistics and English language at the University of Edinburgh and co-author (with Rodney Huddleston) of The Cambridge Grammar of the English Language (Cambridge University Press, 2002). ----- Ah, OK. That's the Cambridge Grammar of the English Language. (No, seriously, British English is different from... sorry, different than American English.)
