Verbo-nominal lexical units consist of two elements - functional verb (operator) and abstract noun as a semantic nucleus (lexificator). Operator can function as a predicate of a sentence only in connection with 'lexificator'. It represents mean of actualisation. Functional verb can carry more semantic features and by its means we can make lexical transformations such as causation, conversion, intensification, etc. Another mean of actualisation is attribute related to abstract noun which adds semantic features to the whole lexical unit. Except mentioned operations it can be ability, probability, prohibition, condition, cause etc.
