Discussion
One of the following represents the chronological sequence of the notions :
Answer: D
The chronological order of the notions is: parts of speech (ancient Greek and Indian grammar), IC (immediate constituent) analysis (Bloomfield and the American structuralists, 1930s to 1950s), surface structure and deep structure (Chomsky's Aspects, 1965), and parametric variation (Principles and Parameters, 1980s).
Options A and B place parametric variation before surface and deep structure, which reverses the sequence. Option C puts IC analysis ahead of parts of speech and moves the parts of speech to the middle. Only option D has the correct order.
