Abstract

The analysis of some linguistic structures that are defining for the biblical discourse will capture both, the differences and the similarities of construction encountered in all the three languages taken into discussion. The paper attempts to focus on some morphosyntactic elements (the categories of tense and mood being mostly emphasized) and on the changes that might appear at the level of canonical word order, for example emphatic constructions and verb elliptical structures, some discourse related issues being also mentioned.

REZUMAT

Analiza unor structuri lingvistice specifice discursului biblic va surprinde diferențele și asemănările de construcție întâlnite în cele trei limbi analizate. Lucrarea îşi propune să se axeze pe unele elemente morfo-sintactice (categoriile de timp şi mod fiind în mod expres vizate) şi pe schimbările care pot să apară la nivelul topicii canonice: construcții emfatice, eliptice de verb, şi probleme specifice analizei discursului.
