Built-in Argument Positions in Bulgarian and Polish

SUMMARY

Built-in Argument Positions in Bulgarian and PolishThe issue of built-in argument positions is not particularly popular in contemporary Slavic studies. However, some developments have occurred since the introduction of predicate-argument logic in semantic-syntactic studies. This paper focuses not only on theoretical developments but also on conclusions arising from the study of two Slavic languages: Bulgarian (an analytic language) and Polish (a synthetic language). Until now, the issue of incorporating an argument position in the form of a predicative expression has been viewed as a lexical issue. However, both lexical and morphological means can be used to express a type of proposition. The peculiarities of the distinction between word and sentence are also discussed. Wbudowane pozycje argumentowe w jezyku bulgarskim i polskimKwestia wbudowanych pozycji argumentowych nie jest szczególnie popularna we wspólczesnej slawistyce. Jednak od czasu wprowadzenia logiki predykatowo-argumentowej w badaniach semantyczno-skladniowych nastapily pewne zmiany. W niniejszym artykule skupiono sie nie tylko na opracowaniach teoretycznych, lecz równiez na wnioskach wynikajacych z badania dwóch jezyków slowianskich: bulgarskiego (jezyk analityczny) i polskiego (jezyk syntetyczny). Dotychczas zjawisko wbudowania pozycji argumentowych w wyrazenie predykatywne bylo postrzegane jako zagadnienie leksykalne. Jednak zarówno srodki leksykalne, jak i morfologiczne moga sluzyc wyrazaniu pewnego typu propozycji. Omówiono równiez osobliwosci rozróznienia wyrazu od zdania.
