Abstract

The article describes structural features of parenthesis expressions in a form of imperatives. Two particular issues are generally discussed therein. It is generally assumed that a parenthesis imperative sequence is a result of transformation of a non- parenthesis sequence, i.e. transformation reflected in a manner according to which open syntactic positions are realized. Another subject of the considerations presented therein regards the issue of parenthesis expressions functioning as iteration predicates.
