COGNITIVE ANALYSIS OF ETHICAL LEXICS AS A WAY TO STUDY LINGUAMENTALITY

Abstract

The article deals with substantiation of theoretical and methodological principles of cognitive analysis of ethical lexis. It was found that the linguocognitive study of the lexical system from a position of the dominant cognitive-discursive paradigm of modern linguistics is based on an integral approach that takes into account the principles of activity, deductive functionalism and configurability and implemented with help of the method of conceptual analysis. Conceptual analysis is the main method of the language logic analysis which is based on the methods of distributive, contextual, constituent, etymological analysis. The modern methodology of postmodernism allows us to combine different methods within one particular study, to do synthetic research using traditional methods of analysis of lexical-semantic systems and verbal-cognitive networks. The center of lexical-semantic networks is an archiseme, the center of cognitive networks is a concept. The concept, considered in the structural aspect, is a prototype. The most global verbal-cognitive networks form the language and conceptual pictures of the world that can be modeled as modular or holistic formation. Hypothetically, lexical-semantic networks are identical for all native speakers. This is the basis of communicative act. Verbal-cognitive networks arise on the basis of human experience and different level of language proficiency. So the way people perceive the world is determined by their environment, and no two human being see the world in the same way. This explains differences in verbal-cognitive networks. Linguocognitive research of lexis by studying vocabulary, introspection, opposition analysis, psycholinguistic experiment give an opportunity to identify the features of human linguamentality, social and age groups, to predict human behavior, people’s world views, ethical reviews and the effectiveness of understanding in the process of communication.
