Resumo
The article looks into the syntactic peculiarities of G. Chaucer’s language. The order of words in “The Canterbury Tales” possesses considerable positional freedom, but, at the same time, is becoming more fixed. An important feature of Chaucer’s language is the use of compound nominal and verbal (modal and aspective) predicates. The language of “The Canterbury Tales” is characterized by a variety of complex sentences with a wide range of connectives. Special attention is paid to parenthetic expressions as means of establishing anaphoric relations.
