Dependent taxis constructions with elements of conditionality semantics in modern Russian (to help the teacher)
The article examines the constructions of the adverbial dependent taxis, the semantics of which is complicated by the logical and semantic relations between the actions of the main and secondary predicates. The relevance is due to the significant dynamics of the use of these figures of speech, the variety of means of expressing taxis meanings, as well as the contradictory interpretation of taxis in linguistic literature. The purpose of the article is to study the constructions of dependent taxis, in which the temporal relations between the actions of the main and secondary predicates are complicated by the meanings of conditionality, as well as to identify the influence of these meanings on the temporal relationship between the verbal and adverbial participial actions. The work used descriptive, comparative-contrastive and transformational methods. It was found that various adverbial meanings are superimposed on the temporal relations between the actions of the main and secondary predicates, often modifying these temporal relations. It was revealed that in the presence of additional conditional, causal and concessive meanings, perfective participles denote an action preceding the action of the verb-predicate, and imperfective participles denote an action simultaneous with the action of the verb-predicate. In the case of expressing other logical-semantic relations, perfective participles can express an action simultaneous with the action of the main predicate or following it, and imperfective participles, accordingly, can denote a preceding or subsequent action. The novelty of the study is expressed in the fact that it identifies and analyzes typical cases of modification of the temporal relationship between the actions of predicates in the constructions of dependent adverbial taxis.
