Syntagmatic Relations
the links and dependencies between linguistic elements (units of any complexity) that coexist simultaneously in a linear series (a text or speech). Syntagmatic relations may exist between neighboring sounds, resulting in vowel harmony and assimilation, and between morphs, resulting in superposition or truncation of adjacent morphemes. The term was introduced by F. de Saussure. The term “syntagmatic relations” often refers to the concept of functions in consecutively joined linguistic elements in the speech process. Syntagmatic relations, which are in contrast to paradigmatic relations, or associative links, constitute the area of study known as syntagmatics. The analysis of linguistic phenomena solely by their syntagmatic relations was typical of descriptive linguistics and was the basis for distributive analysis. The study of syntagmatic relations is an important aspect of the problem of the combinability of linguistic elements, their valence, and the principles regulating their ability to combine in speech.

No references found | In order to explain the concepts of semiotic system, that how a sign in a semiotic system gets its meaning through entering into both paradigmatic and syntagmatic relations with other signs. Maybe I'll get into the Barthesian Codes or Christian Metz's Syntagmatic Relations a bit later--both of which, incidentally, I learned about for the first time in Robin's classes, notwithstanding his evident and sometimes indignant distaste for some of the more lurid and meretricious aspects of French Poststructuralism. Because Watt argues that the novel of formal realism features a specific selection of elements embedded in a particular kind of ordering structure, I often recruit the structuralist premises of paradigmatic and syntagmatic relations to help students comprehend the potential expansiveness of his theoretical design. |
