The article sheds new light on the so-called dative dispositional construction in Russian. We revise the characterization of the classes of verbs able to feed the construction, showing that its input is best defined in terms of the Theta System (Reinhart’s (2002, 2016) approach to thematic relations). To resolve controversies in the literature regarding the licensing conditions of the construction and its possible interpretations, we ran two surveys whose design and findings we report. We then discuss the properties of the construction comparatively, define the operation deriving it, and provide evidence that the operation is lexical. This has consequences regarding the nature of the lexical component.

俄语中的宾语性格结构

这篇文章为俄语中的“定性”处置结构提供了新的启示。我们修改了能够提供给构造的动词类别的表征，以表明根据Theta系统（Reinhart（2002，2016）的主题关系方法）可以最好地定义其输入。为了解决有关建筑许可条件及其可能的解释的文献争议，我们进行了两项调查，我们对其设计和调查结果进行了报告。然后，我们比较地讨论构造的属性，定义派生该构造的操作，并提供证明该操作是词法的。这对词法成分的性质有影响。
