Abstract
The present paper considers triple-component analytical constructions of converb type in the Altai language. The analysis performed shows that the most frequently used analytical constructions of this type are triple-component constructions consist-ing of two converb forms plus an auxiliary verb that completes the construction. In the Altai language, this class of constructions is presented by five combinations.
