Abstract

The order of words in the dialect of Vuk’s ancestors corresponds to the situation in Vuk’s language. It differs from the word order in the Serbian literary language in that it realizes a greater number of potential possibilities in the distribution of sentence parts. The word order is free. The situation is quite archaic. The use of the possessive adjective and the possessive pronoun behind the administrative word is emphasized. Often, these positions also include descriptive adjectives, demonstrative pronouns, and numbers. The word order is not stabilized even when it comes to using multiple attributes with a noun. Broken by a noun or group, they occur in positions that are not allowed in literary terms. This is also the case with the breaking of the syntagmatic entity and the insertion of enclitics where they do not belong.<BR> The great freedom of word order in a sentence structure cannot always be attributed to a stylistically marked order or emphasis and emphasis since the bearers of the dialect of Vuk’s ancestors, in cases where the obligatory order of the sentence parts is violated, miss such opportunities.
