    The article analyses, how the types of syntactic relations are described in the works on Lithuanian syntax of the 1^st half of the 20^th century. The investigation opens with Jonas Jablonskis’ Syntax of the Lithuanian Language (1911) and ends with Leonardas Dambriūnas’ Syntax of the Lithuanian Language (1946 and later editions). The concept and definition of subordination types and their application when describing and splitting sentence parts are taken into account.
