| Summary: | The main purpose of this paper is to analyze different co reference relations
which can be established in a complex sentence between one of the arguments
of the matrix clause and the understood/implicit subject of the complement
clause introduced by the complementizer “da”. Various patterns of control
relations which are present in contemporary Serbian - obligatory,
non-obligatory, and shared control - have been enumerated and exemplified.
Different types of constructions and different classes of verbs which
introduce (or may introduce) control relations have been identified and
patterns of control instantiated by them have been described. It has been
argued that the analysis of the Serbian data indicates that a type of the
matrix predicate is not the only factor which determines the control
relations established in a complex sentence, but that a type of
situation/event described in the complement clause, as well as the
relationship between the events denoted by the matrix and the complement
clauses have their influence too. [Projekat Ministarstva nauke Republike
