A student asked me to explain the grammar of the sentences below. In particular, the word 'rise' was confusing the student.
- Samsung saw sales rise.
- Apple saw the biggest rises in sales.
A good way to understand grammar is by looking at some very easy examples of the same type of construction. Here are some sentences that you could compare with those above:
- I saw the accident happen.
- I saw her leave.
- I saw a big change in his behaviour.
Can you explain the grammar of the examples above? Hopefully the two sentences with 'rise' will then seem easier to understand.
