THE VALENCY AND DISTRIBUTION OF GERMAN COLOR ADJECTIVES
The article deals with syntagmatic characteristics of German color adjectives: compatibility, syntactic-morphological design of actants, their semantic content. Typological features of adjectival color terms of the German language are analyzed from the point of view of the valency model presented in the Dictionary of valency and distribution of German adjectives by K.E. Sommerfeldt and H. Schreiber. Color terms, in general, have all the grammatical categories inherent in qualitative adjectives, but this lexical-semantic group has a number of limitations and exceptions.
