Abstract

The article explores text forming potentials of verbs, considered on the materials of the English, Russian and Azerbaijani languages. Verb differs from other parts of speech as to the many numbers of categories, as to the richness of lexico-semantic, morphological-syntactical, phraseological and phonetical peculiarities. Verbs play a special role in forming combinations with other words in the sentence and in the text, during the consideration of which their valency is investigated as well. Analyzing the examples taken from the literary fictions on the materials of the three languages, we specify certain types of texts in which verbs govern all the types of utterances being the main, organizing elements of sentences. In the article we come to the conclusion that valency of verbs, i.e., its ability of forming combinations with other words is the ground for the successful act of communication.

Highlights

  • If we study the sentence examples in the English language, we see, that the highest degree of communicative dynamism is observed just in the expression of verbs
