The deep structure is the abstract structure that allows the native speaker of a language to know what the sentence means. It may then be said that the deep structure expresses the semantic contents of a sentence, whereas the surface structure of a sentence determines its phonetic form.

Generative Grammar
-
An attempt to develop a small set of rules that could be used to produce, or generate, any sentence in a language.

-
Language is best described by a model with a surface level and a deep level came from his observation that many sentences are ambiguous.

Phrase Structure Rules

S- sentence, NP- noun phrase, AUX-auxiliary verb, VP-Verb phrase
