Abstract
The functional-semantic category of actant distribution of verb’s semantics is not investigated in Ukrainian linguistics. The article considers argument characteristics of affixes, particularly suffixes. We register the ability of the verbal suffixes to explicate actants’ functional characteristics, primarily those of aspect and phase. The paper tackles various actant characteristics of verbs’ lexico-semantic variants that reveal the connection between the suffixes’ morphological-semantic variants and generative, accumulative and hybrid functions of actants. Semantics of suffixes is identified by matching verbs with different suffixes but identical motivators. Synonymic and paronymic correlations in such pairs were detected. The article considers actants’ functions’ redistribution triggered by replacement of suffixes. Verbs with synonymous suffixes primarily denote a subject’s active action or its impact upon another one and correlate with the generative function of the actants. Synonymic suffixes are mostly non-resulting, non-terminative and functionally independent. Cognate verbs in such oppositions are marked by semantics’ identical actant distribution. Suffixes of cognate verbs in paronymic mappings determine verbal actants’ different functions, since they refer to actions that vary in terms of being terminative / non-terminative, active / passive. The article highlights actant functions’ redistribution caused by semantic processes. Special attention is paid to the interaction of suffix and context: on the one hand, the suffix shapes the word’s semantics that appears to be loosly dependent on the context, on the other hand, the suffix may be modified under the influence of the context. The article also demonstrates the impact of verbal suffixes upon the formation of the functional-semantic category of argument distribution as well as verbs’ semantics and fundamental lexico-grammatical categories of mood and voice
