SYNTACTICAL TERMS IN THE WORKS OF VASYL SIMOVYCH THROUGH THE PRISM OF MODERN SYNTACTICAL THEORIES

Abstract

The scientific search of V. Simovych in the field of syntax at the beginning of the 20th century is considered, namely the scientist’s attempts to develop a syntactic theory through the prism of its special concepts. The scientist’s thoughts on the choice of syntax terms in view of the communicative approach of sentences and their components are fixed. The article deals with the classification of terms from syntax, namely by content and form, as well as according to their types in a sentence. According to the content, the author of the work singles out: оповідні речення; запитові або питання, запитове речення; приказові речення; бажальні речення; викликове речення; притакливі речення, речення оповідне притакливе; заперечні речення, оповідні заперечні речення; приказове притакливе речення. They differ in form: поєдичне речення, або просте і речення зложене, зложене речення. Varieties of the main members of the sentence in the syntax of «Practical Grammar of the Ukrainian Language» (Rashtat, 1918) were revealed. Specifically, the following varieties of the main members of the sentence became the object of the study: присудкове імня, зложений присудок, присудок (стягнений), підмет граматичний, льоґічний підмет. A list of terms-names of secondary members of the sentence is provided. In V. Simovych’s «Practical Grammar of the Ukrainian Language» there are three appendices: справжнїй, або властивий предмет, дальший предмет, внутрішнїй предмет. It is interesting that дальший і внутрішнїй предмет is fixed only in the first edition of the grammar. Accordingly, the прикметниковий додаток corresponds to its modern term of означення, and the обставина is interpreted as прислівникові додатки. The interpretation of the theory of syntax, its names according to the concept of V. Simovych is a part of modern syntactic theories. It is fixed that the presented syntactic terms are in the scientific theories of contemporary scientists. This fact testifies to the importance of the scientific principles of syntax, as well as the terms of syntax developed by V. Simovych at the beginning of the 20th century. Key words: syntax of the beginning of the 20th century, syntactic term units, Vasyl Simovych, communicative approach in syntax.
