Abstract

The paper considers the status of verbal adjectives in terms of their dual nature (already implied by their name - verbal, adjective), which provides for their affiliation to either nouns or verbs. It also analyzes syntactic and semantic adjectival dependence. Special attention is given to the possibility of adjectives fulfilling some syntactic functions, and especially to the issue of verbal adjectives expressing nominal definiteness and in which situations they do so.

Keywords

verbal adjectives; nominal paradigm; verbal paradigm; definiteness
