Abstract:

The purpose of this article is to describe the syntactic and semantic properties of the units normalny andnormalnie. The basic thesis concerns the existence of units normalny/normalnie, representing the classesof adjectives and adverbs, as well as metapredicative operators. The adverb normalnie, which the adjectivenormalny is semantically derived from, conveys the idea of no distinction between a certain x and the otherx’s in the cluster x. Someone or something is not different, in terms of a certain feature, from the otheritems in the same cluster. The metapredicate normalnie constitutes a comment on the theme: it confirms theaccuracy of use of a particular predicate.
