REPETITION OF PREPOSITION IN SOUTHERN RUSSIAN DIALECTS

The article examines the repetition of a preposition within a nominal group in modern southern Russian dialects. The rules that determine the repetition or non-repetition of a preposition are compared with the rules that were formulated by A. A. Zaliznyak on the basis of birch bark letters and ancient Novgorod and Pskov parchment letters. These rules, apparently, were relevant in the Old Russian language not only in the northwest. In southern Russian dialects, the Old Russian rules for the repetition of a preposition are preserved in the following cases: with homogeneous members, when a nominal group is ruptured by words that are not part of it, and, apparently, in the group “common noun +noun”. At the same time, new rules developed: the preposition began to be regularly repeated after a common noun before an adjective pronoun, in a small number of cases it appears before a noun that comes after an adjective, and is often used before a noun that comes after a pronoun.
