Rybenok V. The Functionally-Communicative and Structurally-Propositive Perfectives' Paradigm

The object of investigation is the functionally-communicative and structurally-propositive perfectives' paradigms in Modern Ukrainian language. The aim provides for these paradigms' analysis with the successive revelation of their central and peripheral planes. The comparative, system, structural and functionally-semantic methods of perfectives' analysis are used. The paradigmatic perfectives' classification by the structure and semantic of formal means is first listed and the peculiarities of perfectives' usage in different types of aspective situation are first characterized as well. The discription of perfectives' semantic structure gives the materials for the solution of such important semantic questions аs the determination of connection between verbal lexical meanings (LM) and their communicative function and ascertainment of LM types which appear with different means of word polysemantic potential realization. Theoretical generalizations and conclusions may be used in further resea rch of the ve rbal predicate property, pragmatic interpretation of utterance aspectual characteristics, for compilation structural dictionaries of aspectuality and in teaching practice of Modern Ukrainian language.
