Abstract

The paper displays the significance of the choice of words of the suitable syntactically relevant semantic features referring to their incorporation into some syntactic functions in order to produce syntactically and semantically verified sentences. It illustrates how the semantic features affect the implementation of some transformatives, for instance, the passive. The transformation of the active into the passive is constrained by the unfeasibility of incorporating the active doer into the active sentence.
