O pewnym typie rozszczepienia argumentu propozycjonalnego
On a certain type of splitting of the propositional argument

Summary/Abstract: The article discusses the splitting of the propositional argument, i.e. its implementation in the form of two actants that accompany the main predicate. The splitting in question is discussed against the background of other forms of syntactic representation of the basic propositional-semantic content: complete, incomplete, and over-complete. The author focuses on decomposed constructions, which result from contamination and which contain, apart from the sentential actant, a component in the form of a noun, adjective or adverb, raised and located at the beginning of a sentence (the so-called fraction). Constructs of this type are discussed in terms of their syntactic structure (dependency structure in the main clause), grammatical forms of the fractional element and its semantic functions in the matrix clause, as well as the lexicosemantic characteristics of the head predicate. We also address the issue of the compliance of these constructions with language norm.
