Abstract
A preliminary inventory of Surface Syntactic Relations (SSynRel) in Spanish is proposed. SSynRels link governor words with their dependents at surface syntactic level of representation defined in Meaning ⇔ Text Model by I. Melčuk. Some syntactic peculiarities of Spanish as compared with other languages are revealed. Each SSynRel is supplied with examples and a short discussion. An example of surface syntactic representation of a complete sentence is also given.
The work was done under partial support of CONACyT and SNI, Mexico.
