Sometimes certain difficulties in analysis may arise from the fact that phrases, complexes or clauses of similar pattern can have different syntactical functions. They are calledsyntactical homonyms.
Here are a few simple examples:
I’ll do it with great pleasure (adverbial of manner).
She says she’s cut her finger with that table knife (object).
At last there appeared in the distance the house with the green roof (attribute).
He’s always with the losing party (predicative).
He looked as if he did not quite recognize the place (predicative clause).
He looked around as if he did not quite recognize the place (adverbial clause of manner).
The parts in italics have different syntactical functions due to the difference in lexical and grammatical semantics of the words they comprise, or the words they are connected with, or both.
