Abstract

Ellipsis of the preposition in contemporary Russian

In noun phrases either coordinated by juxtaposition or by means of coordinating con- junctions, the préposition introducing each

Noun Phrase is always présent before the first, whereas it can be dropped before the second.

Our study shows that the semantic value of the ellipsis dépends on the type of coordination used : by collocation or through

coordinating conjunction, so that we hâve to consider four différent patterns ; moreover, with coordination through coordinating

conjunction the non-ellipsis of the préposition is stylistically marked.

From another standpoint the ellipsis of the préposition in coordinated NP's allows us better to define for contemporary Russian

compound semantical units, comparable to com- posita of the « dvandva » type (see xleb-soľ). It play s the role of a semantic-

syntactic marker, in the same way as unřverbation, composition, or agreement of the prépositive attributive with the first noun in a

string of two or more coordinated nouns.

Finally, in can be considered that the development of ellipsis of the préposition in coordinated NP's reminds us in some way of its

being dropped before the determined term inside NP's where the préposition was formerly used twice (see s samoj s xozjajkoj) or

in some colloquial word-combinations. Ail these facts do not agrée with the so-called « analytic ten- dency » of contemporary

Russian.
