Abstract

Aim. We examine lexico-grammatical markers of the syntactic time category based on the text of A. N. Ostrovsky’s comedy “It’s a family affair – we’ll settle it ourselves.”. Methodology. Methods of linguistic observation, description, interpretation, and generalization are employed to structurally and semantically analyze sentences from A. N. Ostrovsky’s comedy, extracted by targeted sampling.
Result. Peculiarities of the structure, functions, and lexical and grammatical semantics of sentences containing temporal adverbs, temporal syntaxemes or temporal substantive phrases are identified. It is shown that preserving the grammatical form increases the semantic saturation of the statement and its emotional-expressive and functional orientation.
Research implications. The theoretical significance is determined by the contribution to the methodology of linguistic description of simple sentences and by the demand for the proposed approach in syntactic analysis. The practical significance of the presented materials stems from the possibility of their use in the practice of teaching philological disciplines.
