The internal structure of sen-tences is determined by the verb, which serves as its predicator: the type of verb/ verb valence determines the number and type of complements, and consequently determines the minimal structure of the sentence. A verb like vdes “die”, which is monova-lent-intransitive, requires only one complement in the function of the subject to complete the sentence. Unlike vdes “die”, the bivalent verb takoj “meet” requires two complements to convey its meaning: an internal complement in the function of the direct object and an external complement in the function of the subject. Thus, the verb vdes “die” forms one of the basic sentence pat-terns in the Albanian language: S + intransitive verb, whereas the verb takoj “meet” forms another basic pattern, namely the pattern S + monotransitive verb + DO. The minimal sentence structure contains the verb together with its val...

Интерпретация дейктических выражений зависит от характеристик ситуации высказывания или акта высказывания. Каждое лингвистическое выражение произносится в определенном месте и в определенное время. Оно принадлежит конкретному лицу (говорящему) и адресовано другому лицу (адресату). Выражения, являющиеся основной референцией участников коммуникации, говорящего и адресата, маркируют дейксис личности. Именно через дейксис личности определяется роль участников коммуникации и их разделение на говорящего или адресата. Для анализа был отобран корпус, состоящий из телевизионных интервью, целью которого является определение выражений дейксиса личности на албанском языке. Настоящее исследование позволяет выявить характерные черты дейксиса личности на албанском языке, а также его использование в различных ситуациях. Также будут проан...

This grammatical form has derived from the free syntactic structure of dua + subjunctive, which used to express modality of desire or volition; therefore, do + subjunctive in Albanian is known as volitive future. In addition to its main function, namely reference to future time, do + subjunctive is also often used to express clear modal meaning. This modal meaning that characterizes do + subjunctive can be read in a variety of ways, depending on the context in which it appears. It can be used to express an epistemic conclusion, a conclusion based on speaker's general knowledge or experience. This grammatical form can also be used to express different forms of deontic modality such as an order or a promise. Though less commonly, do + subjunctive can also be used to express speaker's volition or desire. This modal component is characteristic especially for the do + imperfect subjunctive: do të punoja "I would work". In addition to these uses, do + subjunctive can also be used in conditional constructions, both in apodosis and protasis, to express real and unreal conditions.

The internal structure of the clause is assigned or determined by the verb, which functions as the central element of the clause. Depending on the type of verb and its combinatorial abilities, certain clause structures or patterns are generated. In this paper we will deal with bivalent verbs, namely the types of complements that complement these verbs in order to create the minimal bivalent clause pattern. First, the complements of these verbs will be dealt with in terms of their syntactic category, i.e. the type of phrase that completes the verb valency. Then, we will proceed with the functional analysis of these complements and in some cases also with the semantic analysis, i.e. the semantic roles that these complements play.
