definition
(grammar) Characterized by periphrasis.
example
“The daughter of the man” may be used as a periphrastic synonym for “the man’s daughter”.
The periphrastic superlatives also greatly outnumber the inflectional superlatives from the Late Middle English period onwards.
The earliest example of this periphrastic perfect carries us back to the 15th century.
Much of this must have taken place, according to the theory, in the prehistoric period; but the loss of weak consonants, of y, and of one of two repeated consonants, and the development of periphrastic conjugations continued to the end.
