The meaning of temporal distributiveness occurs either in situations in which a habitual activity is correlated with the recurrent periods of time, or in situations in which the recurrent periods of time are accompanied by an activity. The present paper is yet another contribution to a series of papers exploring temporal constructions in Polish that express the meaning of distributiveness. It focuses on the analysis of constructions such as pracować dzień w dzień, which are exponents of the so-called cyclic and distributive time.

One of the fragments of the system of temporal meanings in Polish is a so-called distribution time. The draft proposed herein opens a series of articles devoted to Polish temporal constructions which express a meaning of distribution. The present paper includes general characteristics of distribution time and its concrete meanings as well as an overview of linguistics means which express the said meanings.

The meaning of temporal distributiveness occurs either in situations in which a habitual activity is correlated with the recurrent periods of time, or in situations in which the recurrent periods of time are accompanied by an activity. The present paper is yet another contribution to a series of papers exploring temporal constructions in Polish that express the meaning of distributiveness. It focuses on the analysis of constructions such as ostrzał gęstniał z każdą minutą, which are exponents of the so-called intensifying and distributive time.

One of the fragments of a system of temporal meanings is distributive tense. It occurs when an activity repeats in time or the time intervals correlating with the activity are repeated. This meaning has its specifi c means of expression. The proposed draft (ending a series of articles focusing on semantics of distributiveness in Polish) concerns synonymics of distributive constructions. Part 1 of the paper focuses on the position of a nominal group in particular constructions, aspectual-temporal characteristics of verb as well as on synonymics of constructions with names of time units.

Concluding the series of papers on the semantics of distributiveness in Polish, this study deals with synonymics of temporal distributive constructions. Part II. presents the analysis of constructions with the remaining (apart from units of time) classes of lexemes used in distributive constructions (including names of specifi ed or unspecified periods of time, names of periods of the day, seasons of the year, days of the week, months, expressions functioning as modifi ers of date and nouns with no lexical meaning related to time.

The meaning of temporal distributiveness occurs either in situations in which a habi-tual activity is correlated with the recurrent periods of time, or in situations in which the recurrent periods of time are accompanied by an activity. The proposed framework is yet another contribution to a series of papers exploring temporal constructions in Polish that express the meaning of distributiveness. It focuses on the analysis of con-structions with a noun phrase including “the instrumental case without a preposition”, such as uczyć się nocami, which are exponents of the distributive time proper.

The semantics of temporal distributiveness comes into the fore in two cases: a) either when a habitual activity is correlated with the recurrent periods of time; b) or when the recurrent periods of time are accompanied by an activity. The present paper is yet another contribution to a series of papers exploring Polish temporal constructions with distributive meaning. It focuses on constructions with the pronoun każdy, such as (spotykamy się) w każdą sobotę (każdą sobotę).

There are several nominal groups in contemporary Polish language, which are primarily used to convey information about date as a time of activity. The nominal groups concerned indicate temporal simultaneity of activity and temporal localiser. They include: genitive without a preposition (dnia pierwszego listopada), w+ locative case (w dniu pierwszego listopada), z+ instrumental case (z dniem pierwszego listopada), 1w + accusative case (Zaraz na pierwszego wyłożyli jej na stół pieniądze) and na + instrumental case (Zeszyt grudniowy wyszedł na dniu 31 grudnia). Only one of the aforementioned nominal groups, namely na+ instrumental case, remains to be archaic for contemporary Polish. The aim of the present paper is to determine synonymies of the aforementioned constructions and their mutual relations when expressing the meaning of date.
