Summary/Abstract: The article describes the syntactic processes that occur at the level of sentence parts. The characteristic features of complements traditionally grouped into non-circumstantial complements and circumstantial complements recorded in the text of the popular novel Sandipa, a manuscript copy dated at the end of the 18th century in the northern part of historical Moldavia and kept at the Russian State Library, Moscow (ms. Rom. 824, Grigorovici fund). Of these, I draw attention first of all to those complements that were currently used in texts belonging mainly to the 16th century, some of them retaining their properties until the end of the old period, but strongly competing, as we advance in time, by the complements later accepted, as a structure, by the current Romanian norm. Syntactic phenomena are also researched from the point of view of their presence in contemporary writings with the manuscript we are dealing with, referring, as appropriate, to the situation in the current literary language.
