Mjesto/umjesto/namjesto
Ivana Matas Ivanković
Abstract
In dictionaries, grammars and other references mjesto/umjesto/namjesto is usually described as a preposition which governs the genitive case. Examples in which mjesto/umjesto/namjesto precede the nominals and pronominals with different case marking are either treated as adverbs, or they are not included into description at all. In this paper it is argued that in relation with Genitive mjesto/umjesto/namjesto is a preposition, and in relation with other forms it is a conjunction as has been proven through many examples.
