PREPOSITIONAL SYSTEM OF THE UKRAINIAN LANGUAGE: SEMANTIC ASPECT

Abstract

The purpose of the study is the interpretation of prepositions of the modern Ukrainian language, in particular the study of semantic types of secondary prepositions. The methodology of the study is based on the philosophical approach of learning new relevant teachings about the functional units of the language, evaluating the principles of interpretation of prepositions and their analogues, practical use of the obtained results. Descriptive, component, structural, distributive research methods were used. The scientific novelty consists in solving the question of the actual interpretation of the preposition, the explanation of the modern processes of the transition of full-meaning words into prepositions, the development of new semantic types denoted by secondary prepositions. The Conclusions. The study of the prepositional system developed in three main directions. The most common concept is the interpretation of the preposition as an official part of speech with a weakened lexical meaning. Derivative prepositions are units (structurally - synthetic (one-component) / analytical (multicomponent)), functionally and semantically identical to prepositions, but structurally more complex.
