Abstract:<\/strong> The article explores how the status of structural components in compound and complex sentences has evolved in traditional and modern Ukrainian syntax.<\/p>\n

The study clarifies A.P. Hryshchenko\u2019s negative view on classifying certain components as simple sentences, a perspective that has gained traction in Ukrainian linguistics, and how he substantiates these components as parts of a complex sentence. To refute the claim that the components of a complex sentence are independent sentences, A.P. Hryshchenko \u2014 following O.S. Melnychuk \u2014 argued that they lose their grammatical and communicative autonomy, despite their internal syntactic similarity to simple sentences. He also rejected the idea of \u200b\u200bpotentially using the term \u201csimple sentences\u201d to designate the components of a complex sentence.<\/p>\n

It is concluded that A.P. Hryshchenko in 60-ties of the 20th century directly contributed to the search for a term to designate the structural component of a complex sentence that is isomorphic to a simple sentence in its internal syntactic structure, as he rejected the traditional view of such a component as merely a simple sentence.<\/p>\n

The article explains the reason of the rationale behind replacing the term \u201ccomponent parts\u201d with the term \u201cpredicative parts\u201d, previously used in the grammatical studies of A.P. Hryshchenko. It was first introduced in the analysis of Ukrainian literary syntax during the 1980s and has since become established in modern syntactic theory. This shift is further supported by university-level textbooks and study guides published in the early 21st century.<\/p>\n

Keywords:<\/strong> complex sentence, simple sentence, structural component, constituent part, component, predicative part, traditional syntax, modern syntax, sentence structure.<\/p>\n
