Try and V construction in English
This is my final project in Grammar of English Clauses class which I attended when I was doing my master degree at the University of Manchester.
There is an unusual grammar in English in which 'try and V' is considered a single word. Example in a is considered grammatical while those in b-e are ungrammatical.
a. Let me try and think of an example that isn't confidential.
b. * I tried and think of an example that isn't confidential.
c. * I have tried and think of an example that isn't confidential.
d. * She tries and think(s) of an example that isn't confidential.
e. * I am trying and think(ing) of an example that isn't confidential.
