Ключові слова:
generative grammar, seem-constructions, subject raising structures.Анотація
The article studies seem-constructions in the history of the English language from the standpointof generative grammar. It analyzes the main functional and structural characteristics ofseem-constructions.
The said constructions emerge and are regularly used at the end of Middle English and turn into regular
grammatic construals in Early Modern English. The analized constructions are regarded as raising structures
involving the movement of the predicate’s argument from a lower clause towards the position of the subject
in a higher clause.
