Зависните имперфектни да-конструкции и нивните англиски корелати

Abstract

The paper describes subordinated imperfective da-constructions (SI da-constructions) in Macedonian by examining their meanings, use and English equivalents. Their use, their semantic and functional properties and their English equivalents have also been described. Any possible similarities or differences between the two languages have been indicated in terms of meaning and use of the formal counterparts. The paper’s starting hypothesis is that, apart from appearing in the protasis of unreal, counterfactive conditionals, SI da-constructions can be found in other contexts with different meanings. V prispevku so predstavljene odvisne nedovršne da-konstrukcije v makedonščini, in sicer na podlagi raziskovanja njihovega pomena, rabe ter angleških ustreznikov. Podrobneje so predstavljene možnosti njihove rabe, semantično-funkcijske značilnosti in ustrezniki v angleščini. Izpostavljene so podobnosti in razlike v obeh jezikih na ravni pomena in rabe analognih oblik. Izhodiščna hipoteza prispevka je, da se lahko take da-konstrukcije razen v protazi irealnega pogoja pojavljajo tudi v drugih kontekstih z drugimi pomeni.
