NOMINATIVE WORD COMBINATIONS IN ENGLISH: A SEMANTIC-STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS

Abstract

The article examines nominative word combinations in English from a semantic-structural perspective. Word combinations are considered fundamental syntactic units that serve a nominative function by naming objects, phenomena, and concepts. The study explores their structural organization, semantic properties, and functional roles in language. Special attention is given to the interaction between lexical meaning and grammatical structure. Examples from English illustrate the theoretical points. The research highlights the importance of nominative constructions in linguistic theory and practical communication.
