О типологији предиката у србистици

Abstract

У раду се износи преглед типологије предиката у важнијим школским и универзитетским граматикама српског језика, као и у неким радовима посвећеним предикатском изразу, и указује се на сличности и разлике међу њима.

This paper offers a survey of different predicate typologies presented in some referential school and university grammars of Serbian language. Typologies are presented chronologically, firstly the ones made by the first syntacticians to the ones made by modern linguists. Certain typologies are the result of the underlying linguistic theories.

There are few points of dissagreement among syntacticians, concerning the types and the level of syntactic units which may be used in the predicative position. There is a dissagreement about the so-called adverbial predicate in Serbian, as some linguists claim that only adverbs can enter that position, while others allow the prepositional phrases too. As for the type, there are few researchers who also identify the so-called predicative clause.

The type of predicate which is found to be the most difficult to deal with is the analytic predicate. The so-called decomposed and periphrastic predicates, as specific verbo-nominal constructions, are introduced in recent syntactic descriptions of Serbian language.
