partial inversion) and their shift into the front, opening position in the sentence. The structure of questions as we know is characterized by the grammatically inverted word order. If direct word order is re-established in questions, we can speak of secondary inversion (i.e. inversion of inversion). The inverted questions (i.e. questions with direct word order beyond conveying the tone and manner of the speaker also due to the changed structure) acquire the connotation meaning of the questioner's awareness of the possible nature of the expected answer. (2) Rhetorical question, which is the statement in the form of a question, also presupposes the possible (though not demanded) answer: the positive form of the rhetoric, question predicts the negative answer, the negative form - the positive answer. (3) Apokoinu construction, characteristic of irregular oral speech, presents a blend of two clauses into one, which is achieved at the expense of the omission of the connecting word and the double syntactical function acquired by the unit occupying the linking position between both former clauses: thus, "I'm the first one saw her," presents the blend of the complex sentence "I'm the first one who saw her." Due to its contraction into the apokoinu construction syntactical functions of "the first one"— predicative of the first clause, and "who"— subject of the second one — are both attributed to "the first one" which becomes the syntactical centre of the newly coined sentence. The main stylistic function of apokoinu constructions is to emphasize the irregular, careless or uneducated character of the speech of personages. (4) In ellipsis, which is the omission of one of the main members of a sentence, we must differentiate the one used in the author's narration to change its tempo and condense its structure from the one used in personages' speech to reflect the oral norms and create the effect of naturalness and authenticity of the dialogue. (5) Through detachment secondary members of the sentence acquire independent stress and intonation which leads to their emphatic intensification. The effect is the strongest if detached members are isolated from the rest of the sentence by full stops. (6) Sudden break in the narration, or aposiopesis, is a norm of excited oral speech. As a SD it is used to indicate emotions paralyzing the character's speech or his deliberate stop in the utterance to conceal its meaning. Certain phrases, often repeated with the intonation of the nonfinished sentence, become trite aposiopeses. They indicate that the speaker's idea of the possible continuation of utterance exists in a very general, non-detailed, vague form. ("Well, I never!" reads approximately "Well, I never expected it"; "I never thought of it", etc.) (7) Suspense, holding the reader or the listener in tense anticipation, is often realized through the separation of predicate from subject or from predicative, by the deliberate introduction between them of a phrase, clause or sentence (frequently parenthetic). (8) The function and impact of repetition depends upon the position occupied by the repeated unit. Thus,
We should not forget also morphological repetition when (mainly to achieve humorous effect) a morpheme is repeated. (9) Repetition, involving the whole structure of the sentence is called parallelism and is differentiated into complete parallelism, presenting identical structures of two or more successive clauses or sentences, and partial parallelism, in which the repeated sentence-pattern may vary. (10) Chiasmus is also called reversed parallelism, for into its pattern two sentences are included, of which the second necessarily repeats the structure of the first, or in reversed manner, so that the general formula of chiasmus may be fixed as follows: SPO, OPS. (11) Polysyndeton is also a kind of repetition — here conjunctions or connecting words are repeated. The repetition of "and", e. g., mainly creates the atmosphere of bustling activity; the repetition of "or" serves either to stress equal importance of enumerated factors or to emphasize the validity of the indicated phenomenon regardless of its varying denominations by various parties concerned, etc. (12) Asyndeton, like polysyndeton, is a type of syntactical connection but unlike polysyndeton, offers no conjunctions or connecting words for this purpose. Hence difference in functions: asyndeton is used mostly to indicate tense, energetic, organized activities or to show succession of minute, immediately following each other actions. Opening the story (the passage, the chapter), asyndeton helps to give a laconic and at the same time detailed introduction into the action proper. EXERCISES EX. 1.
