English and ukrainian syntax. Typology of the word-group and the sentence typology of the Syntactic Systems

The infinitival prepositional constructions of the forN/IVinf, or the forNPVinfN(I), forN(I)VinfD, etc. models: For you to go there fast now would be to walk into a trap with your eyes open. (Voynich) The only thing to do is for you to whip him, Edward. (Mansfield) The boy stood aside for me to go by. (Galsworthy)

The objective with the participle constructions in English are of the following models: NVing, IVing, I/NVen(D), VenNP, NPVphrase, etc: I'm sorry to have kept you waiting... (Saroyan) Morning found him still reading. (London) I saw Fleur coming. (Galsworthy) He could see her face bent over the little kitten in her arms. (Ibid.)

The subjective with the participle constructions in English are of the following models: N... VingNP, NP...VenNP, NP...Ving: He could be seen following her with his eyes. (Galsworthy) From time to time their voices could be heard uplifted in clamorous argument. (Norris) The rain was heard clattering... (J. Trease)

The gerundial constructions/complexes are of the following mod els: IpossVger, N'sIVger, prepN/IVgerNP: Hope you don't mind my comings. (London) I wonder at Jolyon's allowing this engagement... (Galsworthy) Excuse my being busy. (Dickens) He was aware of Tan ya watching his face. (Hailey).

The objective with the adjective, stative, or noun constructions are in English of the following models: VI/NA: Get the coffee/it ready. (Bronte) VNStative I woke... and found George awake. (J. K. Jerome) VNN: They called the baby Arthur. (Lawrence)

Note. As will be shown further, the above-mentioned predicative constructions of the last two models (NStative and Nappos.N) are pertained to the Ukrainian language as well (cf. Він назвав хлопця сином. NDStative: Тепер дитині значно легше).
8. The nominative absolute participle constructions which exist in English in the following structural models: NVingNP: The two walked in silence, Soams watching him out of the corner of his eye. (Galswor thy), IVingNP: They having the keys, no entrance was possible. (Ibid.) INDVing: Jame's face protruded naively,., his mouth slowly opening. (Ibid.) IVingD: This being so, I should like to go out. (Ibid.)
Nominative absolute participle constructions may have extended or contracted forms of models like ND and NprepN, which appear as a result of contaminating the participial constructions, eg: The lesson having been over, the students left the room — The lesson being over, the students left the room, The lesson over, the students left the room.
The Ukrainian language has only two structurally similar, if not identical, models of syntagmemes expressing the so-called secondary predication. They are: 1) the participle constructions having the same grammatical nature and semantic meaning as the corresponding English constructions of the NVing, IVing, NPVing, NVen, IVen, NPVen and NA models. For example: Пам'ятаю хлопця/його накульгуючим; дівчина/ вона застала двері зачиненими/вікно розбитим; санітарка знайшла бійця пораненим; читачі вважають роман цікавим; ми/студенти пам'ятаємо цього викладача молодим/об'єктивним; 2) the second type of objective secondary predication constructions in Ukrainian constitute the NN and IN models/patterns word-groups which are used in the following sentences: Ми вибрали Іваненка головою; Вони назвали хлопця Петром.
The italicised parts of the sentences are treated in Ukrainian as the so-called double predicates (like the NVen or NA patterns predicative constructions above: дівчина прийшла стомлена, Ми його знали молодим, etc.).
