Abstract
Applying methods of cognitive grammar, the author discusses three peripheral
types of accusative direct object in Croatian. The peripheral status of the first
two types follows from the morphosyntactic peculiarity as manifested in the
impossibility of passivizing the active clauses they are part of. The third type
appears in one type of impersonal sentences.
Keywords
accusative direct object; subject; prototypical category members; peripheral category members; passive; topicalization factors; impersonality
