Abstract

This paper deals with the case formalisers of the indirect temporal identification – meaning of successive, on the corpora of the vernacular of Banat Montenegro. Otherwise, this article is connected with earlier research concerning of temporal determinative system case within the simultaneity semantic subfield in the mentioned vernacular (Simić 2017). Now we analyze prepositional-case constructions with the meaning of succession, specified as anteriority or posteriority aspects within temporal order. Also, this article deals with the forms with the meaning of unspecified succession. Consequently, the analyze of the system of prepositional-case constructions with the meaning of temporal identification in the vernacular of Banat Montenegro will be completed. A detailed analysis of all registered prepositional-case forms with the semantic feature of succession will discover the degree of the basic features which are characteristic for the majority of Shtokavian speeches and contemporary Serbian, also. This applies to the terms of the choice of case form and in terms of the inventory of prepositional units, primarily. Considering peripheral position of the vernacular of Banat Montenegro on the Serbian dialect map, as well as cross-linguistic interference, its structural distinction is expected. Therefore, we assume that the archaic features have been preserved, on the one hand. But, on the other hand, different innovation processes are expected, primarily within the analytisation of the case system, but also in the copying of Romanian models, etc.
