Syntactic actants

Actant 1: whose body it is
(a) Genitive
(b) Possessive
Тљло Мђши бІло корќчневое от загђра. Masha's body was brown from the sun.
Егћ тљло напряглћсь. His body tensed.
NB When the word тљло functions as a subject and does not have a descriptive modifier, the construction тљло у + Genitive is often preferred to (a) and (b), above:
Тљло у Мђши бІло корќчневое от загђра. Masha's body was brown from the sun.
