Summary/Abstract: The predominant linguistic concepts , traditional grammar and hitherto used description, have mostly focused on language per se. However, we will step out of the frames of this view and attempt to concentrate on three cases, wich, being exceptions, may be interpreted from three different aspects, which are not necessarily mutually exclusive: a) as an interference within the Balkan Language Area; b) as a reflection of the way reality is perceived and an exception regarding the linguistic projection of this reality; c) as a linguistic marginal case , which (barely) exists in the Macedonian language and in the languages of some of other Balkan dialects.
