ON THE CLASSIFICATION OF PARTS OF SPEECH IN RUSSIAN

Abstract

The article analyzes the classification of parts of speech in the Russian language. It is noted that the problems of classifying parts of speech are relevant, since it is important to establish which features of words can become the basis for establishing the similarity of units of one part of speech and distinguishing them from units of other parts of speech. There is a deep connection between language and thinking. The basic categories of thinking, such as subjectivity, property, and attitude, are fixed in the units of language – words. This is where the universal property of language units manifests itself, which makes it possible to define them as a set that consists of classes of units that name objects, as well as naming relationships between them. The article shows which features of words can become the basis for establishing the similarity of units of one part of speech and distinguishing them from units of other parts of speech. The article shows that the main thing in any classification is a clear distribution of the features by which the classification is carried out, as well as the degree of their significance in the classification operation. Parts of speech in languages must be determined based on semantic criteria. The article concludes that it is important to take into account the laws of compatibility of words belonging to different parts of speech and the peculiarities of their word formation.
