• Resumen

  • This paper deals with the Polish construction "isc w soldaty", which is grammatically atypical:

    it is not clear what the value of its noun constituent's case is. The point of departure for the analysis is Igor Mel'cuk's paper about the parallel Russian construction. (The Polish construction was borrowed from the Russian during Russian rule on Polish territory.) The solution is similar to that for Russian: "soldaty" in this expression is an atypical (non-virile or depreciative) accusative form.
