| Abstract: | Our paper contains a research which analyzes with stylistical tools a lexical and grammar phenomenon, which can be included in the field of interdisciplinarity: conversion. The fact that one word can belong to or pass from one grammmar category to another is marked both morphologically (either by inflexion or by invariability, that may differ from one case to another) and syntactically (by creating/ generating new contexts and by taking other syntactical functions). The phenomenon of adverbialization, which basically consists of including into the grammar class of verbs a word belonging to a different grammar class, represents a particular case of conversion as it has many stylistic implications. This phenomenon mainly consists in the incapacity of the converted word to add inflexions. As a consequence, the morphological feature which characterizes adverbs is ”invariability”.Adverbialization of nouns and adjectives represents a productive process in Romanian language. Nouns represent a way of enriching the inventory of qualifying adverbs. To render the idea of affective superlative one resorts to noun forms having adverbial value. They are known as semi-adverbs and they represent the result of metaphorical type semantic transfer. In Romanian language there are many situations in which nouns denoting seasons, days of the week, moments of the day can turn into time adverbs or adverbial phrases, simply by chaning the meaning: the passage from notional meaning to a temporal one. The examples prove that the procedure of conversion can have both a regular and an accidental character from one context to another, generating linguistic and artistical expressiveness. The adverb as semantic, morphological and syntactical unit becomes a living part of the communication activity. |
