NOTIONAL FEATURES OF THE CONCEPT CHARM / ЧАРІВНІСТЬ IN THE ENGLISH AND UKRAINIAN LANGUAGES
Journal Title: Записки з романо-германської філології - Year 2017, Vol 1, Issue
Abstract
The article is dedicated to the contrastive study of the linguocultural concept CHARM / ЧАРІВНІСТЬ in the English and Ukrainian languages. The work considers notional features of the given concepts on the basis of componential analysis of the lexemes-nominations. In modern linguistics “concept” is defined as a mental unity which consists of heterogeneous units. The complex structure of any concept includes different features, such as motivational, notional, associative and evaluative. Notional features are foregrounded in the dictionary definitions of the lexemes-nominations as a system of semantic components (semes) and in the synonymic nominations. The lexemes charm and чарівність are direct nominations of the corresponding concepts in the English and Ukrainian languages. The study of their etymology, dictionary definitions and lexical valency is the most informative way of revealing the structure of the analyzed concepts.
