Abstract. The paper provides an analysis of the classification of composite sentences from the viewpoint of trichotomic approach in the English grammatical tradition, according to which the analyzed syntactic constructions were subdivided into complex and compound sentences, the former of which, in their turn, are considered either in the structure of a simple sentence (similarly to the subdivision of arguments in formal logic) or as a variant of a composite one. The differentiation of clauses (nouns, adjectives and adverbial) is developed on the basis of morphological principle (i.e. by analogy with the parts of speech they stand for).
