criteria: semantic, formal and functional.

the words, their specific inflectional and derivational features.

to divide all the words of the language into:
those denoting things, objects, notions, qualities, etc. – words with the corresponding references in the objective reality – notional words;
those having no references of their own in the objective reality; most of them are used only as grammatical means to form up and frame utterances – function words, or grammatical words.
Слайд 15Notional Parts of Speech
nouns, pronouns, numerals, verbs, adjectives, adverbs

the interrelation of lexical and grammatical types of meaning. In notional words the lexical meaning is predominant. In function words the grammatical meaning dominates over the lexical one. However, in actual speech the border line between notional and function words is not always clear cut. Some notional words develop the meanings peculiar to function words
Слайд 18Notional words constitute the bulk of the existing word stock while function

words constitute a smaller group of words. Although the number of function words is limited (there are only about 50 of them in Modern English), they are the most frequently used units.

far from being solved. Some words cannot find their proper place. The most striking example here is the class of adverbs. Some language analysts call it a ragbag, a dustbin (Frank Palmer), Russian academician V.V.Vinogradov defined the class of adverbs in the Russian language as мусорная куча.

At the same time, there are no grounds for grouping them together either

all. Speaking about after all it should be mentioned that this unit is quite often used by native speakers, and practically never by our students. Some more striking examples: anyway, actually, in fact. Meanwhile, native speakers use these words subconsciously, without realizing how they work.
