Constructions with Lexical Repetitions in East Slavic

Repetition is a well-studied phenomenon in morphology and lexicology but has received less attention on the syntactic level. The book sheds light on syntactic constructions with lexical repetition in East Slavic languages. Several contributions address syntactic constructions that have developed in form and meaning in accordance with general tendencies found in many languages, for example, English Boys will be boys. However, most chapters focus on constructions that resist typological explanation, for example Rus. ???? ??? ???? 'trouble- nom.sg so trouble- nom.sg', Ukr. ?????? ?????? 'fool- nom.sg fool- ins.sg'.
