Phraseological structures in Bosnian, Croatian and Serbian language - Paperback

by Edna Klimentic (Author)

Scientific Study from the year 2020 in the subject Speech Science / Linguistics, grade: 2,60, University of Tuzla, language: English, abstract: This work discusses structural and semantic features that one form needs to have in order to be recognized as phraseme in Bosnian, Croatian and Serbian language and trying to point out the importance of defining the phraseme as a structure that has at least two autosemantic components (not less than two). That is why the constructions treated differently in the phraseological literature are the main topic of this paper. Particular emphasis is placed on forms that do not meet this criterion but fully comply with the other requirements set by the definition of the phraseologism. Related to the indicated problem, the key question is whether a structural or semantic aspect of the considered constructions should be given an advantage, especially when the examples are compound words with its features.
