Безлично-предикативните думи в българския език и мястото им сред другите класове думи
Impersonal-predicative Words in Bulgarian and their Place among Word Classes

Summary/Abstract: The aim of the study is to answer the question whether impersonal-predicative words may be considered as an independent word class (part of speech). I present a summary of the views on the morphological status of these lexemes based on the study of the characteristics of impersonal-predicative words. In the search for arguments that their constitution as a separate part of speech is not linguistically founded, I consider the heterogeneous makeup of the category, the syntagmatic properties of these words, their (lack of) autonomy and lexical combinability with other language units. The communicative-pragmatic aspect (context and spoken language as factors) is also taken into consideration, as far as the impersonal-predicative nature and the semantics of these words is realised at the sentence and text level.
