Implicit causativity of the attrіbute in Slavic languages
Abstract
The article has been dedicated to describe the implicit causative possibilities of attributes that are expressed by adjectives in Slavic languages. An attribute enter into causative relations with any component of the sentence, as well as with a group of such components. Since causativity is a complex, multidimensional phenomenon, different principles for classifying the types of cause-and-effect relationships in a simple sentence involving an attribute are possible. The implicitly expressed causativity of the attribute affects the formation of the general meaning of the utterance.
