Until 17c the auxiliary Vs (shall/will) were interchangeable wh means that each of them could be used in any person. In the 17c J. Wallis introduced the rules for the distribution of shall/will according to the persons. He fixed shall to the 1st person & will to the 2nd, 3rd.
The Syntax. In LG-s the theory of sen-ce was not developed. There was described only 2 ways of word-connection which were: concord (agreement) and government. But in E they were not so imp because by the 17c E had lost its case system, gender & number distinctions in the Adj.
The theory of sentence in E-sh as well as in other Indo-European languages developed under the influence of Latin rhetoric. The main unit of rhetoric is called the period which expresses a complete thought.
The sentence began to be treated as an equivalent of the period & was detained as a combination of words expressing a complete thought. All the punctuation marks for the sentence were also borrowed from the period: comma, colon, semi-colon.
J. Brightland: subdivided sen-s into simple & compound (dichotomic division). In his approach a simple sent-ce was defined as a unit consisting of 1 affirmation. A comp consists of 2or> simple sentences.
Parts of sentence were also described in pre-normative G-s. Under the influence of logic they got the names: subject, Predicate, Object.
The Subject was defined by J. Wilkins as the noun nominative case. The predicate is the main verb in the sentence. Brightland introduced the Object and said that it’s the N affected by the V. All these 3 parts at that time were treated as the principle parts of the sentence.
There were main ideas of pre-nominative G which lasted until the mid 18c. It wasn’t a creative G and it suffered influence of Latin. But there were made some contributions into EG. Johnson reduced the number of N cases from 6 to 2. The number of PofSp was increased from 8 in L to 10 in E (+art+adj). The imp-ce of word order for E syntax was also mentioned by Johnson. Brightland subdivided sent-ces into simple and comp. The influence of rhitoric was obvious in syntax.
