Keyword: «segmented syntax»

The article is devoted to the problem of the variability of the Russian language, namely to active processes at the syntax level. The article describes the most striking processes such as expanding the range of dismembered and segmented syntactic constructions (parceled and binomial constructions), activation of inconsistent and uncontrolled word forms, syntactic compression of structures (syntactic compression, syntactic reduction). Illustrative material from modern periodicals is accompanied by explanations of the meaning of the processes. It is noted that the impact on the written speech of the spoken style is the main reason for the activation of these structures.
