"... By those who" structure is the grammar in the history of the most complicated and most controversial component of the syntax.In this paper, three planes grammatical theory, valency grammar theory as guidance, adhere to the syntax and semantics of combining static and dynamic principle of combining, in the description on the basis of seeking an interpretation, a comprehensive survey of ancient and modern, "as those who ..." structure. Through analysis and study of ancient and modern corpus, and then refer to predecessors of "by" the word structure of results, we found that "... those who are" structural type of diverse, complex structure. Concrete can be divided into "those who are + verb +" "+ by + verb-object structure, those who," "like the structure of the + + owners" and "subject-predicate structure of the + + owners" and "make up the structure of + action + persons "," action in the name of + the + owners "and" parallel structure + of + person, "" the + adjective + owners "and" the so-called + noun + owners "and" words + noun + owners "and" those who are + , "" The + has + owners "and" noun + of + persons "," So + person ", a total of 14 kinds of structural types. In syntactic function, "the ... those who" structure can be used as subject, object, attribute, appositive, adverbial modifier, predicate as clause; in semantic function, due to differences within the verb, "those who are ..." structure that acts Action reasons, premises, Shoushi, goals, objects, work with the parties, ways, methods, resort, AGENT. In the structure in the form of classification, describing the syntax and semantics to explain, based on the inquiry, "the ... those who" structure within the portfolio of the relationship between internal structure is derived with the "by" of the word "person" between the word and found that with verbs core "of the person ..." structure, the "Institution, who" is the relationship between the word and the verb attached to and being attached to the relationship; in a preposition, "... by those who" structure "of the + preposition" is the central language, verbs or phrase is a phrase was modified part of the former, some modification in the post, saying with that verb or phrase related to the premises, tools, methods, reasons and so on.
