The Participle Constructions

Комплексы с причастием

В английском языке есть три вида комплексов с причастием сложное

дополнение (complex object), сложное подлежащее (complex subject) и

абсолютная причастная конструкция (absolute participle construction).

1. Конструкция complex object с причастием представляет собой

сочетание существительного в общем падеже или местоимения в

объектном падеже с причастием, выступающим в качестве глагольного

члена предложения. Данная конструкция выражает процесс

происходящего действия.

I sawhim crossing the street. - Я видел, как он переходил улицу.

‘’Him crossing’’ - конструкция complex object с причастием, она также

является дополнением к глаголу-сказуемому ‘’saw’’.

Complex object c причастием употребляется в основном после глаголов

физического восприятия.

2. Конструкция complex subject с причастием представляет собой

сочетание существительного в общем падеже или местоимения в

именительном падеже в функции подлежащего с причастием в качестве

второй части составного глагольного сказуемого.

He was seen crossing the street. - Было видно, что он переходил улицу.

‘’He … crossing’’ – complex subject с причастием.

Complex object и complex subject с причастием употребляются

обычно тогда, когда мы хотим подчеркнуть, что действие, выраженное

причастием, не было завершено, еще длилось в момент действия,

выраженного глаголом-сказуемым.

3.Абсолютная причастная конструкция обычно состоит из

существительного в общем падеже, личного местоимения в

именительном падеже или указательного местоимения и причастия.

Существительное или местоимение выполняет роль подлежащего по

отношению к причастию (но не является подлежащим всего

предложения).

This done, we decided to have a rest. - После того как это было сделано,

мы решили отдохнуть.

Если абсолютная причастная конструкция стоит в начале

предложения, то она переводится придаточным предложением с

союзом ‘’так как’’ (поскольку, ввиду того что, когда, после того как,

если):

He coming very late, we had to stay at home. - Так как он пришел

слишком поздно, нам пришлось остаться дома.

Иногда причастная конструкция стоит в конце предложения. В этом

случае она переводится на русский язык сложносочиненным

предложением, вводимым союзами – и, причем, а.

The detection of the criminal was in full swing, the detectives finding some

evidence. - Шел активный розыск преступника, причем детективы

нашли некоторые доказательства.
