About "inanimate subject"
0 Hi all, 02 br
00 I have a question about inanimate subject. ( I'm not sure if this name "inanimate subject" is correct... For example, "The sunlight saw a boy playing football on the playground", I am now talking about the subjects like "The sunlight" in that sentence...) In this sentence, "Recent days have seen a flood of books, TV programs and concerts to celebrate this man of his people.", is "Recent days" here an inanimate subject? Or is this sentence in a "Inverted Order"? 02 br
00 Thanks in advance! 0-
