Summary/Abstract: The paper discusses a problem related with a meaning of a way of doing something. The semantic analysis of sentences with ‘sposób’ (‘a way’) has pointed at the simplest unit of language: ‘…w taki sposób, że…’ (‘…such that…’ ). Its explication has required a study of the occurrence and the thematic-rhematic structure of sentences based on this schema. Describing idea is treated as a relation between the main action verb and the parts of reality which deal with this action.
