| Question #254658 | ||
In your answers to questions about the correct punctuation of the word "besides" you write that " stands apart as introductory", then "selection is optional". Can you formulate a rule?
The same would be desirable to hear and on "except".
If I'm not mistaken, then in the meaning of selection from a group of objects, "except" / "besides" stand apart. If the value is incremental, then there is no selection. It's like that?Examples:
"Kazakhstan is the largest country in the CIS, except/apart from Russia."
"In addition to / apart from Kazakhstan, the CIS also includes Russia, Ukraine, Belarus and other countries."Are the examples correct?
The answer of the reference service of the Russian language
Turnovers with a preposition besides(in the meaning of "except"), performing the function in the sentence additions, are usually distinguished by punctuation marks: In the end we decided besides champagne, lend him a chair in the theater, triple his salary, buy him blacks, send him weekly out of town in troikas - all this on the account of the Society. (A. Chekhov, The only remedy). However, it is also allowed not to highlight revolutions with commas with the preposition besides in the meaning of "except": This category seems to us its own, and not ours, state. Apart from of this state everything in the world is named. (B. Pasternak, Safeguards). If the turnover with a preposition besides functions circumstances mode of action, then commas are not put: Despising the wretched painter, I admired this single portrait, as if born besides desires of its creator. (B. Okudzhava, Journey of amateurs).
Turnovers with a preposition Besides punctuation marks are optional. As a rule, a turnover with a preposition Besides stands out if the preposition can be replaced by the words "excluding, apart from something": Nobody's destiny Besides your own, you are no longer interested.(M. Bulgakov, Master and Margarita). Commas may be omitted if the preposition Besides has the meaning "in addition, in addition to something": Landmark of the main room Besides the piano was a huge canvas in a heavy gilded frame, written by an unknown artist ...(B. Okudzhava, Journey of amateurs). However, the practice of writing shows that even with this meaning of the preposition, setting commas is possible.
Thus, in all cases, the final decision on setting / not setting commas is made by the author of the text.
What are isolated members of a sentence? What are they? When do members of a sentence separate, and when not? In this article, we will deal with what separate members of a sentence are, what categories they are divided into, and also what are the rules for separation.
The concept of isolated members of the proposal
So, let's start, as is customary in such cases, with a definition. Separate members of a sentence are such secondary members that are distinguished by intonation and meaning. The emphasis is made so that they acquire “independence” within the framework of the entire phrase.
How are isolated members of a sentence distinguished?
Isolation in oral conversation occurs with the help of intonation. If we talk about writing, then the situation is somewhat different there. Commas are used to separate separate members of a sentence in the text.
Comparing Detached Members to Non-Detached Members
It is worth noting one simple fact: the syntactic weight of isolated members is much greater than that of their opposites. Consequently, the stylistic expressiveness also increases. It is impossible not to say about the logical selection.
What can be isolated in Russian?
Of all the members of the proposal, only secondary ones can be isolated. The main terms in the proposal have never been separated, and this is not expected in the near future.
Why is segregation necessary?
It allows you to draw attention to a particular piece of information. In addition, the fragment can be presented in more detail by resorting to isolation. As mentioned earlier, isolated secondary members of the proposal have more weight and greater independence. We immediately note that isolation can be very different. These are additions, and circumstances, and definitions. Next, we will try to deal with each of these categories, give specific examples for each group.
Isolation of clarifications
First of all, let's look at what separate clarifying members of a sentence are and why they are needed. As the name implies, such secondary members of the sentence serve to specify, clarify. They are inextricably linked by a syntactic function with one or another member of the sentence, the meaning of which they, in fact, explain.
When are qualifying members of a sentence separated?
1. Separate clarifying members of a sentence can be expressed by a definition. Example: “It was dark all around, very dark, I would say. So much so that it seemed like someone in this world just turned off all the lights.” In this case, the phrase “even very dark” has a clarifying meaning and is separated by commas on both sides.
It is worth noting that definitions with a clarifying meaning can be highlighted with a dash when writing. Example: “There were a lot of things in the house - both his personal ones and those that clearly did not belong to him.”
2. Circumstances that are relevant are singled out. They can be expressed as nouns with prepositions, as well as adverbs. For example:
- “Just a second passed - and somewhere nearby an explosion thundered, right behind him.”
- “Once upon a time here, in a quiet, little-known village, life flowed.” The third example: “It happened quite recently, just a couple of days ago.”
Explanation: in the first and second examples, the clarification is in the nature of a place. In the third - the nature of time. Often the isolation of clarifications depends on the author of the place.
3. Clarifications are isolated, attached with the help of the words “or”, “that is”, “precisely”. For example:
- “Whatever his name was. There were rumors that he was either a magician, or a mage, or a superhuman.”
- “It was a balanced, individual, that is, not imposed on him by anyone, decision.”
- “A lot was said about the terrible battle that took place here, namely: helmets and fragments of uniforms, craters from artillery shells, shells.”
4. The clarifying members of the sentence are separated, which are joined with the help of such words as “even”, “especially”, “including”, “in particular”. For example:
- “Everyone remembers that no one could defeat a magician, even those who tried to do it in a crowd.”
- “The victory was a joy for everyone, especially for those who sacrificed a lot for this.”
- “Another second - the detachment went on a breakthrough, including him.”
- “Many countries welcome Russian tourists with great joy, in particular Turkey is doing this now.”
Separation of add-ons
The types of separate members of the proposal include a group of additions. This is nothing but case forms applied to nouns. They are used with combinations such as “except”, “instead of”, “except”, “along with”, “excluding”, “besides”. Thus, it can be seen that phrases in such use have meanings corresponding to substitution and inclusion, exclusion.
Separation occurs depending on what is the semantic load, whether the author has a desire to highlight this fragment:
- “He was already feeling more or less stable, except that his leg was still a little sore.”
- “In addition to the rain promised the day before, the sky lit up with branches of purple lightning, leaving their bright mark on the retina for a moment.”
- “Along with the questions that were waiting to be resolved at work, something had to be done with household chores.”
- “In addition to all this, there was another significant flaw in the product, which decisively deterred the purchase.”
- “And everything was fine, except, of course, some points.”
Note that if the preposition “instead of” is used in the meaning of “instead of”, then it is not isolated. Example: “In return for all the money promised, as he thought, by his friends, he received only promises, words and nothing more.”
Separation of circumstance
Separate members of the sentence are called, as we found out earlier, secondary members, distinguished intonation and with the help of punctuation marks. When do circumstances separate? This is what will be discussed further.
- The circumstance is separated by commas on both sides, regardless of its location in the text, if it is expressed by a participial phrase. Example: “The two of them, holding their breath and holding their breath, waited for the shadow to slip further, past them.” Explanation: here “with bated breath” are homogeneous and isolated members of the sentence, expressed by adverbial turnover. There is an exception to this rule. The adverbial turnover is not isolated if it is a phraseological unit.
- The circumstance is separated by commas on both sides, regardless of its location in the text, if it is expressed by a single participle. Example: "He left without looking back, although he understood what he had just done." Explanation: here “without turning around” acts as a single gerund. There is also an exception here. A single gerund is not isolated if it merges with an adverb in its meaning. Example: “While someone was saying something to me, I stood thinking.”
- Usually two gerunds connected by the union “and” (as well as two single gerunds) are separated as one turn. Example: “I, despite the mistakes of others and not listening to common sense, continued to persistently trample my own path.” Explanation: here “despite the mistakes of others” and “not listening to common sense” are homogeneous adverbial phrases. However, they refer to the same word, so they are equal. Therefore, there is no comma between them.
- A circumstance is isolated if it is presented as a comparative turnover. Usually in comparative terms, words like “exactly”, “as if”, “like” are used. There are some exceptions to the separation of comparative turns, they are not separated in all cases. In general, the isolation of comparisons and comparative phrases refers to the isolation of secondary members of sentences only sometimes, so we will not talk much about this in this article. Example: “My head hurt, as if something massive had been walked over it.”
There is such a concept in Russian syntax - optional. It means "at the discretion of the author". So, circumstances are optionally isolated in two cases:
- If the circumstance is presented as a noun. In this case, the pretext may or may not be present. But most of all, when circumstances are isolated, which are expressed by a combination of nouns with certain prepositions. These are: “thanks to”, “despite”, “contrary”, “according to”, “depending on”, “to avoid”, “in view of”. Examples:
- "Thanks to the availability of free time, he was able to solve almost all his problems."
“Despite the rain, they still decided to go on a picnic.”
- "Despite the threats, he did not change his policy in the slightest."
- “According to the plan, all tasks were completed on time.”
- "Depending on what decision will be made, a different fate awaited him."
- "In order to avoid a fight, the people who were nearby parted them in different corners."
“Due to unforeseen circumstances, it was necessary to decide something quickly, but thoughtfully.” - If there is a specification of the place, time. Example: “And yet it was impossible not to notice that here, in this place forgotten by civilization, some company once worked and prospered.”
How can you find isolated circumstances in the text? To do this, you must first find an ordinary circumstance. And then see if it really is separated by punctuation marks. After that, you can begin to analyze the question of how the isolated circumstance is expressed. It is easiest to start the search with gerunds, as well as single gerunds. Comparative phrases are no worse visible, which, as you remember, are also separate circumstances along with clarifications of place and time, the manner of a person's action. There is a questionnaire called the “Separate Members of a Sentence Test”. It usually gives tasks to search for isolations. There is a task according to which it is necessary to find a separate circumstance in the text, expressed by a participial phrase. It is logical that there will be not one gerund, but a certain set of dependent words. Clarifying circumstances can be found just as easily. To do this, simply search for words that are expressed by nouns in oblique cases. Next to them there should be adverbs, prepositions. These, in most cases, are isolated circumstances expressed by clarifications of place and time.
Signs of isolation
According to the rules of the Russian language, the signs of isolated members of the sentence can be divided into four groups. The first group is semantic features. The second is grammar. The third is intonation (that is, pauses and highlighting intonation). And the last, fourth group is punctuation marks. As mentioned earlier, punctuation marks such as commas are most often used as punctuation marks. But it is possible that the separation will be carried out with the help of a dash. Copyright punctuation is a rather complicated thing.
The role of isolation in Russian
Isolation often allows you to endow this or that fragment of a text or phrase with some special meaning, to give it an informational weight that is different from that of other parts of the sentence. That is, due to isolation, a peculiar emphasis is placed on certain facts. During a conversation, we often, talking about something, without noticing it ourselves, highlight some words and even phrases with intonation. Accordingly, we are trying to achieve attention to these fragments, they play some special role in this or that situation. It may make some clarifications as well. Thus, summing up, we can say that the role of isolated members of the proposal lies in increasing the information load.
Test “Isolated members of a sentence”
Before proceeding to the final part of the article, where we will summarize its results, I would like to write my own, unique test with suggestions to help the reader consolidate the knowledge gained about the isolation of secondary members. Perhaps the test may seem easy to some, but in fact, it is precisely this kind of tasks that are used to identify knowledge in students of secondary educational institutions. Next, there will be a task to which you need to give an answer, then answer options, and after that an explanation for those who answered the task incorrectly and the correct answer.
1. What numbers correctly represent ALL the commas that should be in the text? “He went to the lake (1) which shimmered in the sunlight (2) and went somewhere further.”
Options: a) only 1; b) only 2; c) 1 and 2.
Explanation: “which shimmered in the sunlight and went somewhere further” - a construction consisting of two participial revolutions. Participle turnover is one example of a separate definition. “Shimmered in the sunlight” and “went somewhere further” are two equal participial phrases that refer to the same word. So there is no comma between them.
Correct answer: a.
2. In all the following cases, a sentence will be written immediately in which commas must be correctly placed. “Everything was fine (1) except (2) that a group of clouds (4) gathered into one whole was already looming on the horizon (3) predicting a thunderstorm (5) and heavy rain.”
Options: a) 1, 2, 5; b) 1, 3, 4; c) 2, 5; d) 1, 2, 4.
Explanation: “except” is an example of a stand-alone object. It does not stand at the beginning of the sentence and not at the end, therefore it is isolated from two sides at once. “A group of clouds gathered together” is a common definition, which is expressed by participial turnover. There will be no isolation at the checkpoint (3). But between the “clouds” and the “predicting” necessary comma. “Thunderstorm” and “shower” are two equal complements that refer to the same word. Therefore, there is no need for a comma between them.
Correct answer: Mr.
3. “The sky (1) gradually (2) darkened (3) occasionally illuminating with forks of lightning (4) and somewhere in the distance (5) thunder was heard (6) foreshadowing bad weather.”
Answers: a) 1, 2, 5; b) 2, 3, 4, 5; c) 3, 4, 6; d) 1, 5, 6.
Clarification: omissions 1 and 2 will not contain a comma, because there is no clarification there. “Sometimes illuminating with ramifications of lightning” is a common isolated circumstance, expressed by adverbial turnover. It will separate from two sides. “Foretelling bad weather” is a participial phrase at the end of a sentence. It separates on one side.
Correct answer: c.
Conclusion
So, what did we find out in the course of this article?
- Firstly, the use of isolated members of the sentence is done in order to endow the isolated fragment with independence and increased information load.
- Secondly, commas and dashes are used to isolate punctuation, and intonation is used in conversation.
- Thirdly, isolated members of a sentence can only be secondary.
Separate members of the proposal, the table for which will be presented below, may have the purpose of clarifying the time and manner of action, place. Often they are also expressed by gerunds, participles and turnovers. Comparisons are not ruled out at all.
One of the sections of the syntax is precisely the isolated members of the sentence. The Russian language presupposes the presence of such minor isolated members as: additions, circumstances, definitions, clarifications and comparisons.
Intonation highlighting minor members in order to give them a certain syntactic independence in the sentence. The somantic-stylistic function of isolation lies in the fact that isolated members clarify the expressed thought, concretize the description of the action, give a more in-depth characterization of a person or object, and add expressive coloring to the sentence. Intonational emphasis is expressed in the fact that before a separate member (if it is not at the beginning of the sentence), the voice rises, a pause is made, it has a phrasal stress characteristic of the intonation-semantic segments (syntagmas) into which the sentence is divided. In writing, isolated members are separated or distinguished by punctuation marks (commas, less often by means of a dash). Separate members do not form phrases with defined words. Between those and others, thanks to an additional affirmation or negation, semi-predicative relations are established, as a result of which the isolated members, in their semantic load, as well as in intonation, approach subordinate clauses, occupying an intermediate position between them and non-isolated members. Separation conditions:
1) Word order. The cloud hanging over the high tops of the poplars was already raining (Korolenko) (cf .: The cloud hanging over the high tops of the poplars was already raining). Zhukhrai, a sailor, talked to us more than once (N. Ostrovsky) (cf .: Sailor Zhukhrai talked to us more than once).
2) The degree of prevalence (volume) of a minor member. Frightened by the despair of my father, my mother did not dare to cry in his presence (Pushkin) (cf .: Frightened mother did not dare to cry in his presence). Dubov, sitting astride a bench, dismantled the revolver (Fadeev) (cf .: Dubov was sitting dismantling the revolver).
3) The clarifying nature of one member of the proposal in relation to another. Directly opposite the cordon, on the other side, it was empty (L. Tolstoy) (cf. without specification: Directly opposite the cordon on the other side, it was empty).
4) The semantic load of the secondary member (the combination of several meanings in it). Attracted by the light, the butterflies flew in and circled around the lantern (Aksakov) (cf. purely attributive meaning without additional causal meaning: Attracted by the light, the butterflies flew in and circled around the lantern).
5) The intentional separation of a minor member from another member (usually a predicate), to which it could be related in meaning and syntactically. Women, with a long rake in their hands, wander into the field (Turgenev) (cf .: Women with a long rake in their hands wander into the field).
6) Neighborhood of other isolated members of the proposal. Every day on the streets, in trams, she saw these faces, ordinary, Russian, tired, with a look that does not let herself in (A. N. Tolstoy) (cf. the possible non-separation of the last group of words in the absence of previous agreed definitions: Every day on the streets, in the trams she saw these faces with a look that did not let herself in).
7) Syntactic incompatibility of related words (for example, personal pronouns and definitions or applications to them). I, wet to the last thread, was taken off the horse with almost no memory (Aksakov). The hearts of us Bolsheviks are forged from steel (Simonov).
8) Weak syntactic connection of the secondary member with the control word, allowing, if the author wishes, separation. It can be seen that the Chichikovs, for a few minutes in their lives, turn into poets (Gogol). The term “separate secondary members” was introduced into scientific use by A. M. Peshkovsky in his work “Russian syntax in scientific coverage” (1914). Before him, the syntactic phenomenon, which he called “isolation”, was considered by many grammarians as “reduction of subordinate clauses
A. Kh. Vostokov in his “Russian Grammar” (1831), based on the division of subordinate clauses into “full” and “abbreviated”, indicated that the sentence “who came” can be replaced by the participle “who came”, and instead of the sentence “when I look at the sky, I am surprised” you can form a sentence with the same meaning “looking at the sky, I am surprised. N. I. Grech expressed similar views in his “Readings on the Russian Language” (1840). I. I. Davydov also speaks about the subordinate clauses “full” (with a predicate, expressed conjugated verb) and “abbreviated” (with a predicate, expressed participle, participle or indefinite form of the verb) in “Experience of a general comparative grammar of the Russian language” (1852). ). F. I. Buslaev also writes about the “abbreviation” of sentences in his “Experience in the Historical Grammar of the Russian Language” (1858). These views reflected a logical approach to grammatical facts, which took into account the semantic proximity of two syntactic constructions and did not take into account the linguistic specificity of each of them.
A. A. Potebnya approached the daddy problem in a different way. In the work “From Notes on Russian Grammar” (1888), he opposed the theory of “abbreviated subordinate clauses”, pointing out that any sentence contains a personal verb, even if it is omitted, and since there is no personal verb in participial and participle phrases , they cannot be considered as offers. In addition, A. A. Potebnya. noted that historically there was no “abbreviation” of subordinate clauses and that participles did not arise from relative clauses that began to appear later and developed independently of participle constructions. A follower of A. A. Potebnya, D. N. Ovsya-niko-Kulikovskiy, adhered to the same views.
On a critically prepared ground, A. M. Peshkovsky developed his doctrine of isolated secondary members. He considered intonational emphasis to be their essential feature, without, however, paying due attention to semantic emphasis. Rejecting the traditional understanding of secondary members, Peshkovsky replaces syntactic concepts and their corresponding terms with morphological concepts and terms (“separate controlled noun”, “separate adjective”, “separate adverb”, “separate participle”, etc.), which, with the preservation of the general concept and the term “separate secondary terms” introduces an element of contradiction.
The intonational feature underlies the interpretation of isolated members by L. A. Bulakhovsky. L. V. Shcherba connects the concept of isolation with the syntagmatic articulation of speech. The combination of semantic and formal features of isolation is contained in the definition given by V. V. Vinogradov in the academic “Grammar of the Russian language.”
(other than neutral) word order (Rus. She suffered a great and unexpected grief. , but Grief befell her, great and unexpected);
Semantics
The semantic-stylistic function of isolation is a clarification of the thought expressed and an additional characteristic of a person or object: when separated, the connection between the defining and the defined members of the sentence acquires an additional semantic connotation (causal, concessive, temporal) and acquires the character of a secondary predication (cf. Rus. Tired travelers stopped for the night and Tired, travelers stopped for the night), bringing the isolated member closer to the subordinate clause. Separation carries an additional message accompanying what is said in the distributed part of the sentence.
Isolation often introduces an expressive coloring into the sentence.

1) except, excluding, except etc. (with exclusion value)
2) besides, beyond, along with etc. (with include value)
3) instead of etc. (with substitution value)
The isolation of these constructions occurs if the writer wants to emphasize their role in the sentence.
Ways of expression
In oral speech
On a letter
In a letter, isolated members of a sentence are distinguished by commas, less often a dash: Directly against the cordon on that shore, was empty(L. N. Tolstoy).
Types of isolated units
According to the function in the proposal differ semi-predicative and explaining isolated turns. Semi-predicative phrases have a relative substantive independence and are close to subordinate or independent clauses. Among them are distinguished:
- participle turnover (rus. A lighthouse is visible in the distance standing by the sea );
- participial turnover ( He was walking, waving your arms );
- substantive isolated turnover ( Peaceful people, they hardly endured the dangers of the front);
- adjectival turnover ( his shirt, napkin-like, was always open on the chest).
Explanatory phrases, as a rule, depend on the secondary members of the sentence and carry a concretizing meaning or provide additional information. Depending on the part of speech to which the main member of a separate construction belongs (noun, adjective, conjugated form of the verb, infinitive, adverb), there are explanatory isolated turns of the following types:
- substantive ( Around the wagon on the snow, crowded soldiers), including restrictive excretory (Everyone came except Ivan);
- adjectives ( This puddle seemingly harmless, cannot be taken with overclocking);
- verbal ( It is necessary to write about what is burning, does not wait );
- infinitives ( Many just came sit and talk );
- adverbs ( In the middle of a conversation unexpectedly he dozed off).
Isolation in the languages of the world
Russian language
In the Russian language, isolation reveals unusual properties of both the isolated and the distributed element. So, a separate definition can have not only a full, but also a short form: Bordered flying foam, / The pier breathes day and night(A. A. Blok); a pronoun can act as a definitive: And on a strange rock, beyond the blue seas, / Forgotten, he faded away completely(M. Yu. Lermontov) and proper name: Masha, pale and trembling, went up to Ivan Kuzmich(A. S. Pushkin).

An excerpt characterizing Separation
– That's how! - he said. - Well?- Repulsed! - Boris said animatedly, becoming chatty. - You can imagine?
And Boris began to tell how the guards, having taken their place and seeing the troops in front of them, mistook them for the Austrians and suddenly learned from the cannonballs fired from these troops that they were in the first line, and unexpectedly had to join the case. Rostov, without listening to Boris, touched his horse.
- Where are you going? Boris asked.
- To His Majesty with a commission.
- Here he is! - said Boris, who heard that Rostov needed his highness, instead of his majesty.
And he pointed out to him the Grand Duke, who, a hundred paces from them, in a helmet and in a cavalry guard coat, with his raised shoulders and furrowed eyebrows, was shouting something to an Austrian white and pale officer.
“Why, this is the Grand Duke, and I should go to the commander-in-chief or to the sovereign,” said Rostov and touched the horse.
- Count, Count! - shouted Berg, as animated as Boris, running up from the other side, - count, I was wounded in the right hand (he said, showing his hand, covered with blood, tied with a handkerchief) and remained at the front. Count, I hold a sword in my left hand: in our breed of von Berg, Count, all were knights.
Berg said something else, but Rostov, without listening to the end, had already gone on.
Having passed the guards and an empty gap, Rostov, in order not to fall back into the first line, as he fell under the attack of the cavalry guards, rode along the line of reserves, going far around the place where the hottest shooting and cannonade were heard. Suddenly, in front of him and behind our troops, in a place where he could not in any way suspect the enemy, he heard close gunfire.
"What could it be? thought Rostov. - Is the enemy in the rear of our troops? It can’t be, thought Rostov, and the horror of fear for himself and for the outcome of the whole battle suddenly came over him. “Whatever it is, though,” he thought, “there is nothing to go around now. I must look for the commander-in-chief here, and if everything is lost, then it is my business to die together with everyone.
The bad feeling that suddenly came over Rostov was confirmed more and more, the farther he drove into the space occupied by crowds of heterogeneous troops, located outside the village of Prats.
- What? What? Who are they shooting at? Who is shooting? Rostov asked, leveling with the Russian and Austrian soldiers, who fled in mixed crowds to cut across his roads.
"The devil knows?" Beat everyone! Get lost everything! - Answered him in Russian, German and Czech crowds fleeing and not understanding exactly the same as he did what was happening here.
- Beat the Germans! one shouted.
- And the devil take them, - traitors.
- Zum Henker diese Ruesen ... [To hell with these Russians ...] - the German grumbled something.
Several wounded were walking along the road. Curses, screams, groans merged into one common rumble. The shooting died down and, as Rostov later found out, Russian and Austrian soldiers were shooting at each other.
"My God! what is it? thought Rostov. “And here, where at any moment the sovereign can see them… But no, it’s true, these are just a few scoundrels. This will pass, this is not it, this cannot be, he thought. “Just hurry, hurry through them!”
The thought of defeat and flight could not enter Rostov's head. Although he had seen French guns and troops precisely on the Pracen mountain, on the very one where he was ordered to look for the commander-in-chief, he could not and did not want to believe this.
Near the village of Pratsa, Rostov was ordered to look for Kutuzov and the sovereign. But not only were they not here, but there was not a single commander, but there were heterogeneous crowds of disordered troops.
He urged on his already tired horse in order to quickly pass these crowds, but the farther he moved, the more upset the crowds became. On the high road, on which he left, carriages, carriages of all sorts, Russian and Austrian soldiers, of all branches of the military, wounded and unwounded, crowded. All this buzzed and swarmed mixedly to the gloomy sound of flying cannonballs from the French batteries placed on the Pracen Heights.
- Where is the Emperor? where is Kutuzov? - Rostov asked everyone he could stop, and could not get an answer from anyone.
Finally, grabbing the soldier by the collar, he forced him to answer himself.
- E! brother! Everyone has been there for a long time, forward fled! - the soldier said to Rostov, laughing at something and breaking free.
Leaving this soldier, who was obviously drunk, Rostov stopped the horse of the batman or the caretaker of an important person and began to question him. The batman announced to Rostov that an hour ago the sovereign had been driven at full speed in a carriage along this very road, and that the sovereign was dangerously wounded.
“It can’t be,” said Rostov, “that’s right, someone else.”
“I saw it myself,” said the batman with a self-confident grin. - It’s time for me to know the sovereign: it seems how many times in Petersburg I saw it like that. Pale, pale, sitting in a carriage. As soon as he let the four blacks, my fathers, he thundered past us: it seems time to know both the royal horses and Ilya Ivanovich; it seems that the coachman does not travel with another, like with Tsar Ilya.
Rostov let his horse go and wanted to go on. A wounded officer walking by turned to him.
- Whom do you need? the officer asked. - Commander-in-Chief? So he was killed with a cannonball, he was killed in the chest with our regiment.
“Not killed, wounded,” another officer corrected.
- Yes, who? Kutuzov? Rostov asked.
- Not Kutuzov, but how do you put it, - well, yes, everything is the same, not many are left alive. Go over there, over there, to that village, all the authorities have gathered there, - this officer said, pointing to the village of Gostieradek, and passed by.
Rostov rode at a pace, not knowing why and to whom he would now go. The sovereign is wounded, the battle is lost. It was impossible not to believe it now. Rostov was driving in the direction indicated to him and along which the tower and the church could be seen in the distance. Where was he in a hurry? What was he to say now to the sovereign or Kutuzov, even if they were alive and not wounded?
“Go along this road, your honor, and they’ll kill you right here,” the soldier shouted to him. - They'll kill you!
- O! what are you saying! said the other. – Where will he go? It's closer here.
Rostov thought about it and went exactly in the direction where he was told that they would kill him.
“Now it doesn’t matter: if the sovereign is wounded, can I really take care of myself?” he thought. He drove into the space where most of the people who fled from Pracen died. The French had not yet occupied this place, and the Russians, those who were alive or wounded, had long since left it. On the field, like shocks on a good arable land, there were ten people, fifteen killed, wounded on every tithe of the place. The wounded crawled down in twos, threes together, and unpleasant, sometimes feigned, as it seemed to Rostov, their cries and groans were heard. Rostov trotted his horse so as not to see all these suffering people, and he became afraid. He was afraid not for his life, but for the courage he needed and which, he knew, would not withstand the sight of these unfortunates.
The French, who had stopped shooting at this field, littered with the dead and wounded, because there was no longer anyone alive on it, saw the adjutant riding on it, pointed a gun at him and threw several cores. The feeling of these whistling, terrible sounds and the surrounding dead merged for Rostov into one impression of horror and self-pity. He remembered his mother's last letter. “What would she feel,” he thought, “if she could see me here now, on this field and with guns aimed at me.”
In the village of Gostieradeke there were, although confused, but in greater order, Russian troops marching away from the battlefield. French cannonballs were no longer reaching here, and the sounds of firing seemed far away. Here everyone already clearly saw and said that the battle was lost. To whom Rostov turned, no one could tell him where the sovereign was, or where Kutuzov was. Some said that the rumor about the wound of the sovereign was true, others said that it was not, and explained this false rumor that spread by the fact that, indeed, in the sovereign’s carriage, the pale and frightened Chief Marshal Count Tolstoy galloped back from the battlefield, who left with others in the emperor’s retinue on the battlefield. One officer told Rostov that behind the village, to the left, he saw someone from the higher authorities, and Rostov went there, no longer hoping to find anyone, but only to clear his conscience before himself. Having traveled about three versts and passing the last Russian troops, near a garden dug in by a ditch, Rostov saw two horsemen standing opposite the ditch. One, with a white sultan on his hat, seemed familiar to Rostov for some reason; another, an unfamiliar rider, on a beautiful red horse (this horse seemed familiar to Rostov) rode up to the ditch, pushed the horse with his spurs and, releasing the reins, easily jumped over the ditch of the garden. Only the earth crumbled from the embankment from the hind hooves of the horse. Turning his horse sharply, he again jumped back over the ditch and respectfully addressed the rider with the white sultan, apparently suggesting that he do the same. The horseman, whose figure seemed familiar to Rostov and for some reason involuntarily attracted his attention, made a negative gesture with his head and hand, and by this gesture Rostov instantly recognized his mourned, adored sovereign.
"But it couldn't be him, alone in the middle of this empty field," thought Rostov. At this time, Alexander turned his head, and Rostov saw his favorite features so vividly engraved in his memory. The sovereign was pale, his cheeks were sunken and his eyes were sunken; but all the more charm, meekness was in his features. Rostov was happy, convinced that the rumor about the wound of the sovereign was unfair. He was happy to see him. He knew that he could, even had to directly address him and convey what he was ordered to convey from Dolgorukov.
But just as a young man in love trembles and trembles, not daring to say what he dreams of at night, and looks around frightened, looking for help or an opportunity to delay and escape when the desired minute has come, and he is standing alone with her, so Rostov now, having reached that What he wanted more than anything in the world, did not know how to approach the sovereign, and he had thousands of reasons why it was inconvenient, indecent and impossible.
"How! I seem to be glad of the opportunity to take advantage of the fact that he is alone and in despondency. An unknown face may seem unpleasant and hard to him at this moment of sadness; then, what can I say to him now, when just looking at him my heart stops and my mouth dries up? Not a single one of those innumerable speeches that he, addressing the sovereign, composed in his imagination, now occurred to him. Those speeches were for the most part kept under completely different conditions, those were spoken for the most part at the moment of victories and triumphs, and mainly on the deathbed from the wounds received, while the sovereign thanked him for his heroic deeds, and he, dying, expressed his love confirmed in deeds. my.
“Then, what am I going to ask the sovereign about his orders to the right flank, when it is now 4 o'clock in the evening, and the battle is lost? No, I definitely shouldn't drive up to him. Should not disturb his reverie. It’s better to die a thousand times than to get a bad look, a bad opinion from him, ”decided Rostov and drove away with sadness and despair in his heart, constantly looking back at the sovereign, who was still in the same position of indecision.
While Rostov was making these considerations and sadly driving away from the sovereign, Captain von Toll accidentally ran into the same place and, seeing the sovereign, drove straight up to him, offered him his services and helped him cross the ditch on foot. The sovereign, wanting to rest and feeling unwell, sat down under an apple tree, and Toll stopped beside him. Rostov from afar, with envy and remorse, saw von Tol say something to the sovereign for a long time and with fervor, as the sovereign, apparently crying, closed his eyes with his hand and shook hands with Tolya.
"And it could be me in his place?" Rostov thought to himself, and, barely holding back tears of regret for the fate of the sovereign, he drove on in complete despair, not knowing where and why he was now going.
His despair was all the greater because he felt that his own weakness was the cause of his grief.
He could ... not only could, but he had to drive up to the sovereign. And this was the only opportunity to show the sovereign his devotion. And he didn't use it... "What have I done?" he thought. And he turned his horse and galloped back to the place where he had seen the emperor; but there was no one behind the ditch. Only wagons and carriages were driving. From one furman, Rostov learned that the Kutuzovsky headquarters was located nearby in the village where the carts were going. Rostov followed them.
Ahead of him was the bereytor Kutuzova, leading horses in blankets. Behind the bereytor was a wagon, and behind the wagon was an old yard man, in a cap, a sheepskin coat, and with crooked legs.
- Titus, oh Titus! - said the berator.
- What? the old man replied absentmindedly.
- Titus! Start threshing.
- Oh, fool, ugh! - Angrily spitting, said the old man. Several minutes of silent movement passed, and the same joke was repeated again.
At five o'clock in the evening the battle was lost on all points. More than a hundred guns were already in the hands of the French.
Przhebyshevsky and his corps laid down their arms. The other columns, having lost about half their men, retreated in disorganized, mixed crowds.
The remnants of the troops of Langeron and Dokhturov, mixed up, crowded around the ponds on the dams and banks near the village of Augusta.
At 6 o'clock, only at the Augusta dam, the hot cannonade of some Frenchmen could still be heard, who had built numerous batteries on the descent of the Pracen Heights and were beating at our retreating troops.
Case forms.
The term "isolation" was introduced by A. M. Peshkovsky in the book "Russian syntax in scientific coverage" .
Factors contributing to segregation
There are a number of factors that contribute to the isolation of the secondary member of the proposal. They include:
- the presence of dependent words;
- inverse (other than neutral) word order (rus. She suffered a great and unexpected grief., but Grief befell her, great and unexpected);
- the emergence of additional semantic connections (Rus. The meeting will take place tomorrow, Thursday, where the word form on Thursday simultaneously acts as a circumstance of time related to the predicate, and a clarifying component in relation to the circumstance tomorrow).
Semantics
The semantic-stylistic function of isolation is a clarification of the thought expressed and an additional characteristic of a person or object: when separated, the connection between the defining and the defined members of the sentence acquires an additional semantic connotation (causal, concessive, temporal) and acquires the character of a secondary predication (cf. Rus. Tired travelers stopped for the night and Tired, travelers stopped for the night), bringing the isolated member closer to the subordinate clause. Separation carries an additional message accompanying what is said in the distributed part of the sentence.
Isolation often introduces an expressive coloring into the sentence.
Agreed definitions
| Separation conditions | Examples |
|---|---|
| 1. They stand after the word being defined and are expressed by participial turnover | Cloud, hanging over the high tops of the poplars it's already raining |
