Taxis and conditionality in the aspect of poly-categorical syncretism

Arkhipova I.

The article discusses the functional-semantic categories of taxis and conditionality in the aspect of poly-categorical syncretism in complicated polypropositive sentences with prepositional deverbatives. In statements with prepositional deverbatives, aspectual-taxic categorical situations with the semantics of conditionality are actualized. Conditional-taxis values are represented in statements of the sub-field of the second taxis with taxis-forming prepositions bei, in, unter in the conditional value. The prototypical semantic components of the conditional-taxis syntagmatic context are the conditional actualizers and the monosubjectivity or polysubjectivity of the propositions with prepositional deverbates.
