The study presents a corpus-based analysis of Russian complex prepositions, with the goal of classifying them within the functional-grammatical field of prepositions. The central hypothesis is that frequency serves as an effective criterion for determining the degree of grammaticalization and the position of a preposition within the system: highly frequent units are closer to the core, while rare units occupy the periphery.
To test this hypothesis, we conducted a multi-stage analysis: (1) compiling a preliminary list of Russian prepositions and their equivalents from linguistic studies; (2) classifying them into 39 structural models based on their formation patterns; (3) identifying potential prepositions through bigram analysis in the Russian National Corpus; (4) merging all lists into a dataset; (5) calculating frequency rankings to establish the stratification of the prepositional field. Finally, we compiled a dataset of 2 402 prepositions and their equivalents, the most extensive list of Russian prepositional units.
The findings confirm that analogy and frequency play a key role in prepositional expansion and grammaticalization. The frequency-ranked list provides a foundation for linguistic and linguodidactic research, offering a systematic way to distinguish core and peripheral prepositions. This dataset also contributes to the Russian Constructicon, providing a structured inventory of prepositional constructions.
