Types, types and ways of linking phrases

For the first time the word combinations and the way of communicationword combinations begin to study in 4 classes, but they are considered in more detail only in the 5th. Most often, children are confused in the types of subordinate communication. In order to understand the types of word combinations, it is necessary to consider each of them in detail and to analyze the examples.

Methods of subordinate communication in the phrase

A combination of two ormore words. These words are related in meaning, as well as grammatically. The peculiarity of all word combinations is that they include the main and dependent words. The ways of linking phrases are the most difficult topic for schoolchildren in the 5th grade. However, it is very important to study it because it will be used by students during all subsequent schooling.

In total, linguists and philologists distinguish 3 waysconnection of the main and dependent words in the word combinations: coordination, adjacency, and management. The methods of subordinate communication in the phrase are easily and very often confused. In order to be able to determine to which type of subordinate communication the phrase belongs, it is necessary to understand them and to consider in detail all the examples.

Connection type matching

The method of communication matching in the phraseoccurs quite often. Harmonization is a kind of connection in which the dependent word is consistent with the principal in the case, number and genus. This means that both words are mutable, but at the same time they change in the same way. A phrase with a type of matching can consist of a noun, which usually plays the role of the main word, consistent with the adjective or ordinal numeral, participle, pronoun.

Examples of word combinations with communication

Considering the ways of linking word combinations,it is necessary to give and disassemble all the examples in order to understand the material well. All examples need to be written off in a notebook, doing a thorough analysis, working with a pencil. Only in this case the material will be well mastered and firmly remembered. First of all, in order to understand in practice what such an agreement is, it is necessary to disassemble the phrases with a link. Examples:

• Noun + adjective:

A beautiful house (a beautiful house). "House" - this is the main word, since it asks the question "what?". "Beautiful" is a dependent word in the phrase.

The frog is green (the frog is green). "Frog" - this is the main word, because it asks a question to the dependent.

• Noun + ordinal number:

The fifth floor (the floor of what? The fifth). Both words are agreed in number, gender, and also case. The dependent word is the ordinal numeral "fifth", since to it the question from the main one is asked.

With the hundredth buyer (with the buyer what? Hundredth). The main word is "the buyer", he is asked a question to the ordinal numeral "hundredth".

• Noun + participle:

Scattered things (things that are scattered). The dependent word here will be the participle "scattered", since the question is asked from the main one.

Foliage fallen (foliage what? Fallen). The main word is "foliage", because it asks a question.

• Noun + pronoun:

With your mom (with your mom's? Yours). Both the dependent and the main words are coordinated among themselves in gender, number and case. The main word will be a noun, because it asks a question to the pronoun.

Such a man (a man of what?). The main word will be "man", because it is from him that he asks a question to the dependent.

• Pronoun + noun (participle or substantivized adjective):

With someone cheerful (with someone how? Cheerful). The main word will be a pronoun, since it asks a question to the dependent person.

In something beautiful (in something what? Beautiful). The main word is a pronoun, because the question to the dependent adjective is given from it.

• Noun (substantivized adjective) + adjective:

White bathroom (bathroom what? White). The main word will be the substantivized adjective, because the question is asked of it. Adjective "white" - dependent.

Tanned resting (resting what? Suntanned). "Resting" will be the main word, since the question comes from him, and "tanned" - dependent.

Communication type control

The methods of linking word combinations, as is known,there are three types. Management is another way of communication. Most often it is with him that confusion and problems arise among schoolchildren. In order for them not to exist, it is necessary to consider this type of connection in more detail.

The method of communication in the phrase management isThis kind of subordinate connection, in which the dependent word is used in the case, which the main word requires (only oblique cases, that is all, except for the nominative). In management, children are more likely to have problems, because it is difficult to distinguish between management among other types. This type of communication should be given special attention and work on it more diligently. It should be remembered that all types of word combinations require great practice and memorization of the theory.

Examples of word combinations with communication management

Let's consider examples of word combinations built on the connection management:

• In connection with the word combinations "control", most often the main word is a verb, and the dependent word is a noun:

Watch the film (see what? Film). The main word is the verb "look". From it the question "what?" Is asked. to the noun "film". You can not say "see the film", because it will be a speech error. In this phrase, the dependent word is used in the case, which requires the main thing from it.

Running in jeans (running in what? In jeans). The verb "I run" is the main word, and "in jeans" - dependent.

• Phrases with communication control can consist of both an adjective and a pronoun:

I agree with him (agree with whom? With him). From the short adjective "I agree" the question to the pronoun is asked, it means that it is important.

I'm sure of it (I'm sure of who?) In it. A short adjective is the main word, and the pronoun to which the question is asked is dependent.

• The ways of linking phrases can be implemented so that the main word is an adjective, and a dependent noun.

Red from frost (red from what? From frost). Adjective "red" is the main thing in this phrase, and the noun "frost" - dependent.

Angry at a daughter (angry at whom? For a daughter). The word "daughter" is dependent, because they ask him a question from an addict.

• Two nouns can also be constituents of the phrase:

Enemy to the people (the enemy to whom? To the people). The noun "enemy" is the main one, since it asks a question to the dependent "people".

A spoon made of silver (a spoon made of silver?). The noun "spoon" is the main, and the word "silver" - dependent.

• The numeral can be the main in the phrase, and the noun the dependent one.

Three drops (three? Drops). "Three" is the main word, and "drops" is dependent.

Twelve months (twelve months?). Numeral is the main word, and the noun is dependent.

• The adverb is the main word in the combination with the control connection, and the noun is the dependent word:

To the left of the house (to the left of what? From the house).

Down the street (down the street).

• There are phrases where the main word is the gerund, and the dependent is the noun:

Watching them (watching who? Behind them). The gerund is the main word, because the question to the dependent comes from it.

Turning to the article (referring to what? To the article). The noun in the dative case in this phrase is a dependent word, because a question is asked of it from the verbal participle "addressing".

Connection type

The method of communication in the phrase adjacency isthe final stage of studying the types of connection of the word combination. In a phrase with a connection, adjacency, both words, and dependent, and most importantly, join each other only in sense. The main word is immutable.

Examples of word combinations with connection adjacency

In order to understand how the connection is connected, it is necessary to disassemble in detail all possible examples:

• Noun, verb, adjective + infinitive of the verb:

The opportunity to stay (the opportunity to do what? stay). It is known that the connection is contiguous only in meaning. The noun "possibility" is the main word, whereas the infinitive of the verb "to stay" is dependent, because a question is asked to it.

Other examples: the decision to meet, the desire to leave, the science of thinking, the desire to learn. In all word combinations, the main word is a noun, and the dependent word is an infinitive.

Allowed to kiss (allowed what? To kiss). Both members of the phrase are verbs. The main word is the verb "allowed", and the dependent - the infinitive "kiss".

Other examples: likes to walk, came to laugh, wants to come, decided to read. In all these examples, the dependent word is an infinitive, and the main word is a verb.

• Noun + adverb:

Turn right (turn right). The main word is the noun "turn", and the dependent adverb "to the right."

Types of word combinations by main word

After passing the methods of subordinate communication in the phrase, they go on to study the theme of the types of word combinations by the main word. In total, 3 groups of word combinations are distinguished according to the main word.

Nominal phrases

Nominal phrases are suchword combinations in which the main word is a noun, a pronoun, an adjective or a numeral. Examples of nominal word combinations: a pink elephant (the main word is a noun), five drops (the main word is a numeral), is happy to try (the main word is a short adjective), it is good (the main word is a pronoun).

Verb phrases

Verbal word combinations are suchword combinations, in which the main word, as a rule, is a verb. Examples of verbal phrases: go far, say lies, come to see, go joyfully (the main words in these phrases are verbs).

Adverbial phrases

Adverbial word combinations areword combinations, in which the main word is an adverb. Examples of adverbial phrases: always good, top secret, away from Russia (the main words in these phrases are adverbs).

The types of connection of word combinations are easy to remember, if you practice often, and also learn the necessary theory.
