O roli czynników formalnych i semantycznych w dystrybucji polskich form deklinacyjnych
Streszczenie
The problem can be very well illustrated with the results of the analysis
of the distribution of masculine noun endings (Norn. Pl.) and the results
of the discussion on the position of the ending -owie in the form system of
that particular case. It appears that, contrary to previous findings, the distribution
of that ending is based on a formal rather than semantic principle
(it is added to nouns belonging to only two categories: 1) Christian names
and surnames, and 2) names of family relationship).
The use of this ending is limited to those word classes in which Nominative
forms and other endings would increase the number of homonymic unite of
the language. The changes in distribution of this case have not finished yet
but they require a certain modification in the description of Polish decciension
system.
