the future-existence of a currently “nonexisted” object The phrase non-existed isn’t very English-sounding. Maybe you want nonexistent or non-existing? |

A noun adjunct / the possessive case deleted extraneous "is" from "it's is"; added missing "s" to "shop(')"; added curly quotes; removed extraneous hyphen before "is wrong" and debolded the "is" in this phrase |

about pronunciation of 'g' at end of words Various Australian accents pronounce something and anything as with a final [k], i.e., a devoiced [g] (e.g., somethi[ŋk]). |

Syntax, contrastive analysis @Mitch, my first hunch (as a comparative syntactician) was also that it just meant comparative syntax. But it turns out that “contrastive analysis” was a theory in its own right (chiefly applied to second language acquisition). As such, the field may have had areas of syntax or methods that were particularly prominent. If so, then that’s what the question(er) is after. |
