Grammatikalizaton in German verbs with the separable prefix ab- in the 16th century

Abstract

The article focuses on the study of grammaticalization in verbs with the separable prefix ab- in the German language of the 16th century. The research reveals that ab- turns from the part of a compound word into the prefix as a result of changes in its locative semantics. Formation of grammatical meaning has been revealed in the prefixes of the verbs whose word stem preserved its original meaning. Grammaticalization proceeds slowly. The cases of atypical for modern German separability of the verb and ab- in the contact position in the language of the 16th century evidence this fact. Idiomatization of а verbal stem complicates the process.
