The system of syntactic connections: classification searching

Abstract

The paper deals with the analysis of various classifications of syntactic connections. Many different types and forms of syntactic connection have been discovered till to the second half of the ХХ century, that’s why the problem of their classification has appeared. Linguists suggest some classifications, grounded on different principles, but none of them is comprehensive. The purpose of the evaluation is to clear up that principles and to assess their prospect for creating universal classification. From the beginning scientists proposed to divide syntactic connections into two groups – connections in a word-combination and connections in a sentence – according to the sphere of their realization. Linguists also kept classic distinction into two opposite types of connection – subordinate and coordinative – according to existence / absence of dependence between combined components. Nowadays the similar classification schemes are presented in Russian and Belorussian linguistics. Instead in the Ukrainian grammar classifications according to the directivity of dependence and according to the role of connection in formation and modification syntactic constructions are more grounded. There is tendency to simplify classification schemes and to unit different sorts of syntactic connection into general types in Czech and Polish linguistics. As to Ukrainian material the classification based on the directivity of dependence seems to be perspective for future development of the theory of syntactic connection.
