O izricanju posvojnosti prijedložnim genitivnim izrazima
About expressing possession by prepositional genitive phrases

Summary/Abstract: Croatian grammars mention two genitive prepositional phrases used for expressing possession: od+G and u+G. The author searches the works from Veber's Syntax to contemporary grammars for particularities in expressing possession by prepositional phrases in comparison to other possessive forms: adjectives and possessive genitive (usage distribution, stylistic values). He compares the state recorded in normative literature to the corpus composed of the examples of literary and journalistic style.
