Abstract
The structural classification of analytic connectors of a complex sentence of the Khanty language follows the principles developed by M. I. Cheremisina and T. A. Kolosova in the monograph “Essays on the theory of complex sentences” (1987). Single and non-single connectors can be distinguished depending on whether the complex sentence connector belongs to one predicative unit or to both ones, with single connectors belonging entirely to one of the predicative units and non-single ones consisting of two or more parts placed in different predicative units. Also, the classification takes into account the morphological nature: in the Khanty language, the analytical connectors of a complex sentence are formed based on particles or pronouns. Further, consideration is given to the number of components in the composition of a particular connector, with single-component and multicomponent (usually two-component) connectors being identified. The specificity of the Khanty language is that there are no conjunctions since synthetic and analytical-synthetic polypredicative constructions prevail. Particles and pronouns are used to connect the parts of a polypredicative construction. However, in the language of newspapers, the fund of analyt-ical connectors is actively replenished.
