What are Syntactic Relations?
In linguistics, syntactic relations (= grammaticalfunctions, grammatical roles, syntactic functions,grammatical relations) refer to functionalrelationships between constituents in a clause orphrase.
Relation between the constituents of varioustypes of phrases or sentences is called SyntacticRelations.

What is Tree Diagram?
A tree diagram is a way of representingthe hierarchical nature of a structure in a graphicalform. It is named a "tree diagram" because theclassic representation resembles a tree, eventhough the chart is generally upside downcompared to an actual tree, with the "root" at thetop and the "leaves" at the bottom.
Tree diagram provides us visual representation ofthe constituents of the corresponding expression.
It looks like a family tree.

What is CONSTITUENT COMMAND or C-COMMAND?
From the above examples, C-Command can
be defined as follows:
A constituent X c-commands its sister Y and
any constituent Z which is contained within Y.

Explanation of CONSTITUENT COMMAND or C-COMMAND
We can give example of importance of C-Command relation
in syntactic description by looking at ANAPHORS (especially
REFLEXIVES and RECIPROCALS)
•He must feel proud of himself. (“He” is antecedent of “himself” and
“himself” is bound by “He”)
•The people help one another. (“The people” is antecedent of “one
another” and “one another” is bound by “The people”.)
![Page 19: C command on binding](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022060121/5593f0261a28ab4e3b8b47c1/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Explanation of CONSTITUENT COMMAND or C-COMMAND
We can give example of importance of C-Command relation
in syntactic description by looking at ANAPHORS (especially
REFLEXIVES and RECIPROCALS)
•He must feel proud of herself. (“He” is antecedent and requires
singular masculine reflexive--himself to form grammatical structure but
here is “herself” and forms an ungrammatical structure.)
•The two men help one another. (“The two men” is antecedent and
requires reciprocal—each other to form grammatical structure but here
is “one another” and forms an ungrammatical structure.)
