Normative Issues and Trends in the Use of the Preposition pe in Contemporary Romanian. A Synthetic Approach

Summary/Abstract: Starting from the morphological, syntactic and semantic peculiarities mentioned in normative works (DOOM 2010, GALR 2005 / 2008, GBLR 2010), lexicographical sources (DEX 1998, DLR 2010) as well as other relevant scientific studies (see Pană Dindelegan 1997, 2003; Zafiu 2005; Nedelcu 2012, etc.), this article aims at analysing the trends in the use of the preposition pe in contemporary Romanian, its semantic extensions, as well as deviations from the norm: substitution by other prepositions and extended use of pe instead of other prepositions, an increasing synthetism, the omission of pe from direct object phrases, etc. The corpus of our analysis is relevant for contemporary spoken Romanian, for spontaneous and colloquial language and was retrieved by means of the Google search engine.
