Sobchakova N.M. CONTRASTIVE ANALYSIS OF THE FUNCTIONAL POTENTIAL, ETYMOLOGY AND SEMANTICS OF ENGLISH TEMPORARY UNIONSDynamic character of the language depends on its system and subsystems, which are called central and peripheral. Field theory is considered to be the best for such study. Field approach, considering units of different levels, gives possibilities to study syntagmatic and paradigmatic peculiarities of these units. In Indo-European languages the temporary field is represented by grammatical tenses in the centre of the field and temporary conjunctions in its periphery. The conjunction in such case performs the qualifying function as it shows the relations between the main sentence and the clause. English temporary conjunctions not only show the relations between the clauses, but also specify the action of the temporary clause as preceding or following that of the main sentence. Key words: language system, subsystem, centre and periphery, temporal field, lexico-grammatical means, verbal forms, temporal conjunctions, coordinative and subordinative conjunctions.
