Abstract

The class of pronouns in modern Russian language is specific and grammatically heterogeneous, especially in comparison with other grammatical classes. As concerns paradigmatics, pronouns have the characteristics of words which they substitutes in speech. Traditional description of the pronouns paradigmatics is logical only in those cases, when they are considered independently of one another. In complex descriptions of their grammatical qualities the great number of contradictions appears, as the pronominal words unlike notional words have wider system of syntagmatic relations in comparison with paradigmatic relations, and for that reason it can not be expressed by the paradigm properties. Functional approach allows to define, what is the feature of the pronoun paradigmatics compared to other nominal classes of the Russian language. Every Russian pronoun has the special system of form change. From the point of view of paradigmatics of modern Russian language practically all pronominal paradigms are anomalous. Unlike the paradigms of other classes, pronominal paradigms are secondary in relation to communicative forms; and they are mechanically formed complex. This fact increases the significance of the concept of the importance of functional quality of each pronominal form in comparison with the words of other parts of speech of the language. The pronouns act in the language in independent communicative forms rather independent of paradigm. Each of them has its own functional potential that is set not by a paradigm, but by the relations of this form with the text environment.
