Ok, I'm sorry

Hello, first of all, I must say I'm not good at literature. I have a topic to my evaluation test: Why is the wedding guest sadder and wiser man after telling the story about ancient mariner? He is wiser because he knows how does it look when people sinners? I have no idea I've read this poem but I don't really know how to "factorize" it...

Thank you very much, now it's clear to me. (By phrase marker I meant tree diagram. ) Thank you.

Hello, I have a problem connected with adjunct/sentence adverbials and phrase markers. I know definition etc but once I've heard such sentence: "I have just arrived." and I don't know if "just" acts here as an adverbial? For me it is not complement, just additional information, but I cannot show it in a phrase marker because an adjunt must be related with VP and here it is between two constituents of Vrgp. So if it is not an adverbial what is it? It is a necessary part of this sentence??? Thanks in advance

thank you !

Hello, I'm first grade student of English. In my university we've started the course of descriptive grammar and I must say I really like it. Especially phonology, syntax and semantics. During our classes we do some exercises connected with tree diagrams etc. but it is not enough for me. Could you recommend me some books to improve and expand my knowledge it the field of linguistics because I fell that it may be the thing which I can take up in the future Thank you in advance.
