Abstract

The article clarifies the notion of syntactic accommodation as a language technique and a main tool in the model of description of simple syntactic groups in connection with the development of a normative grammar of the Bulgarian language. The authors point out the advantages of this approach in descriptions with normative orientation with respect to the derivation of system rules in the language. They go on to study the effect of syntactic accommodation in connecting personal and impersonal verbs with da-constructions as an illustration of the approach. The authors consider the degrees of accommodation in the simple syntactic groups consisting of a personal verb and a da-construction. The mechanism of accommodation is illustrated in more detail by its action in the categories of polarity, person, number and mood in simple syntactic groups with an impersonal verb as a main member and a da-construction as a subordinate member. Keywords: syntactic accommodation, simple syntactic groups, personal verbs, impersonal verbs, da-constructions, degree of accommodation, Bulgarian language
