Summary/Abstract: When talking about the intentional semantic field, we actually talk about a relatively wide range of linguistic units. At the level of complex sentence intentional meaning is observed among clauses, the components of such sentences. Explicit intentional meaning is expressed by intentional (final) subordinate clause. However, this meaning can be found in independent complex constituent sentences. Clauses in the composition of complex sentences can succumb to the process of condensation. Intentional clauses subject to infinitization, adverbializa-tion and nominalization.
