Бессоюзный сентенциальный актант в свете экспликативного синтаксиса
Asyndetic Sentential Actant in the Light of the Explicative Syntax

Summary/Abstract: Using the examples of Russian verbs of thinking, feelings and perception, the author solves the problem of describing the sentential actants, which are realized in an asyndetic (conjunctionless) form. In publications based on the theory of explicative syntax, this aspect of the syntactic valency of verbs has not been previously taken into acount. The author shows that the asyndetic sentential actant is one of the realization forms of the propositional argument and, at the same time, a valence characteristic of verb: some verbs allow the asyndetic actant regularly, others sporadically, and others do not allow it at all. The author investigates the factors that influence the possibility or impossibility of using asyndetic actants: the particular lexical meaning of verbs; the derivative / secondary character of diathesis; the negative element in the verb meaning; 3-place semantic valency of verb.
