О НЕКИМ ПРЕДЛОЗИМА У ГРАМАТИКАМА И ПРИРУЧНИЦИМА ЗА УЧЕЊЕ САВРЕМЕНОГ ГРЧКОГ ЈЕЗИКА КАО СТРАНОГ

The paper analyzes the semantics of prepositions that syntactically correspond to the accusative case in the Modern Greek language and that are also used with genitive and nominative cases. Prepositions, as indeclinable words, have limited lexical meaning and cannot stand alone, but they may govern one or more cases. Since Modern Greek language has four cases (nominative, genitive, accusative and vocative), the focus of this paper will be on the analysis of prepositions used with the accusative case and that at the same time can be also used with both nominative and genitive case. Finally, by analyzing examples from the grammar handbooks and textbooks for learning Modern Greek as a foreign language used at the Department of Modern Greek studies at the Faculty of Philology, University of Belgrade, we try to point out the basic characteristics of certain propositions and their significance in the Modern Greek language.
