Abstract
Polish collocations, the author discusses synonymic relations between the well-established collocations and single-word synonyms known as synthetic that correspond them. Most attention has been paid to verb-noun collocations which can often be replaced by a single word, or a verb. This linguistic material is ideal to deal with semantic and stylistic equivalence / identity and morphological relationship between a combination of words and a single-lexeme synonym as well as collocations of a given language that lack their single-word synonyms. The paper also highlights complex collocation-word relations in terms of translation if two different language systems are contrasted. Thus, the author cites certain pairs of Russian collocations and their Polish singleword synonyms that have been abstracted in the lexicographical studies. Besides verb-nominal collocations, the paper discusses some examples of attributive and adverbial collocations and the possibility of replacing them by a single word.
