Abstract

The article considers nominal sentences in Russian and English languages. This type of sentences have always been seen as one-member sentences, but in the recent decades some researches have appeared claiming that they contain implicit predicativity, that is, they can be considered as two-member sentences at the level of semantics. The authors completely support this view and explore the way how one member sentences express predicativity using limited language means. The authors also provide the classification of nominal sentences with language examples in Russian and English and express the view that nominal sentences have different degrees of implicit predicativity. Special attention is paid to the kinds of nominal sentences with highest implicit predicativity.
