Abstract:

The article offers an analysis of one of the expressive markers of the language of social works of B. Humeniuk “Poems from the war”. Stylistic functions, structural and semantic properties of epithets are outlined. The connection between lyrical and epic epithets and the form of poems – verlibr – is noted. The functional load of epithets in correlation with linguistic-stylistic categories actualization, intimation, subjectivization, publicism, epicness, lyricism is traced. The role of epithets as actualizers of emotional assessments, concrete-sensory associations (color, size, smell of realiti

Abstract:

The article examines the features of verbalizing the category of quality in Marina Tsvetaeva’s prose texts through the lens of the vectors of figurative semantics formation by means of epithet complexes. The purpose of the study is to identify the mechanisms of representing qualitative, attributive semantics in Marina Tsvetaeva’s idiolect. To achieve this goal, the following methods were employed: descriptive, component analysis, and cognitive-semantic analysis of linguistic units. Epithet complexes of metaphorical, metonymic, and metaphonymic types were analyzed, allowing the identification o

Abstract:

Epithetation is a process of assigning an attributive meaning to an object represented by a nominal word. The specificity of epithetation is the presence of contextual markers, which leads to the attribution of non-usual, non-systemic attributes from the standpoint of the language norm, but fits into the framework of the individual style, expressing the occasional nature and non-standard thinking of the author. The study of epithetation is transformed from the recognition of regular, systemic variability of the meaning of the attributive word (epithet) to the analysis of the mechanisms of the

According to the cognitive theory that has developed in modern linguistics, the processes of metaphorization and metonymization are based on the processing of knowledge structures fixed in the human cognitive system in the form of various concepts and frames.

The paper examines the linguistic and cultural semantics of the Yakut word buruo (smoke) by exploring its metaphorical manifestations in vocabulary, phraseology, and folklore. The folklore text is analyzed using a structural-semiotic approach to examine language as a cultural verbal code. For the first time, the smoke metaphor is recognized as a source of riddles, proverbs, good wishes, incantations, euphemisms, and others. Otherwise, the metaphor is found to have meaning- and text-forming functions. In the Yakut linguoculture, the smoke metaphor creates a micro paradigm of linguistic units wi

All living languages are in a constant state of evolution. Metaphorical usage is an important driving factor in that process of evolution; the blending of concepts within metaphor leads to the diversification of the reference of words used metaphorically. It can occur that a metaphorical usage becomes conventionalized. This, in turn, leads to shifts in the meanings of those words. Metaphorical usage can occur in a variety of forms, including metonymy, synecdoche, and euphemism.

Abstract:

Orthodox hymnography comprises a wide variety of musical-poetic structures. Among them, the akathist stands out both in terms of size and aesthetic features or in terms of frequency of use in the practice of prayer. From the point of view of linguistic interest, we notice the abundance of deverbal nouns in the structure of the akathists, present at all levels of text structure. The multifunctionality of the deverbal nouns within this type of text also includes the aesthetic dimension of the hymn. In the current article we will focus on the dominant metaphorical structures, formed on the basis

The noun city is an actively epithetized image of Ukrainian poetry of the twentieth century. Around it are definitions with direct, descriptive meaning (autological) and with figurative, figurative-evaluative (metalogical). Autologous definitions include characteristics of size (large, giant, small), age (new, old, ancient, ancient, ancient, eternal, young), location relative to the administrative center (central, provincial), distance from the location of the lyrical hero. close), time (morning, evening, night).

Abstract:

Abstract Metaphor-based accounts of expressions involving a set of metaphors do not indicate how complex meaning is generated. For instance, meaning of the expression ‘this surgeon is a butcher’ is taken to arise from one metaphor: a person who performs actions with certain characteristics is a member of a profession known for those characteristics (Lakoff, 2008). But this metaphor does not explain its negative meaning. Blending Theory, in contrast, offers a convincing solution to this issue. Notwithstanding, it regards the expression as nonmetaphorical. I aim to combine Metaphor Theory and Bl

Abstract:

The use of colloquial idioms is one of the most unique and defining aspects of the idiolect of Holden Caulfield in The Catcher in the Rye. This research attempts to determine which of the two translations, Spanish and Catalan, retains more figurative/metaphorical meaning in their representations of such idioms. Our results would seem to suggest that the Catalan translation retains more figurative meaning. This translation employs on significantly more occasions lexicalized structures expressing similar metaphorical meaning, though differing in form while the Spanish translation, on significant

Abstract:

This study explores the cognitive mechanisms underlying the formation of zoomorphic imagery in human cognition. Drawing on examples from the French language, the article analyzes how metaphorical modeling, cognitive projection, associative reasoning, categorization, and inferential logic shape animal-based symbolic representations. These cognitive mechanisms collectively contribute to the conceptualization and linguistic expression of animal traits as human characteristics. Through culturally embedded metaphorical structures, the study highlights how animal imagery conveys social, emotional, a

Abstract:

The mechanisms of metaphorical evaluation have to date been little explored in the study of evaluative language and the study of metaphor, despite some earlier attempts to place them more firmly on the linguistic science agenda. The founders of Conceptual Metaphor Theory have argued that metaphor structures thought by influencing not only our understanding of concepts, but also our ability of criticising, evaluating and stance taking (Lakoff, Johnson 1999: 2), which is sporadically mentioned in approaches to linguistic evaluation, but with no theoretical or practical interaction with existing

Typical metaphorical structures are found, in which the thoughts, dreams, feelings, feelings conceptual for linguistic thinking are grouped around dynamic signs with the seeds of 'movement', 'moving'. Such structures reflect the principle of anthropomorphism, which is indicative to the writer’s idiom, that is, the animation, the attribution of the beings’ properties of abstract names – attributes of the intellectual sphere o

The current study undertakes an analysis of the role played by rhetorical strategies, Grice's "Cooperative Principle" (CP) (1975), and Bitzer's "Rhetorical Situation" (RS) model (1968) in strengthening the use of metaphorical devices in presidential addresses. The general issue under consideration is the lack of in-depth analysis concerning the manner in which such strategies and theoretical frameworks enrich the effectiveness of metaphorical device use in political rhetoric. Overall, the purpose of this study is to map out metaphorical device use in presidential speeches according to Grice’s

Yazykov used this word to name a part of a day (from morning to evening), a time interval (24 hours), and a calendar date. In most contexts under study, the word den’ has the plural form dni (‘days’) and the meaning of “time”. Various tropes (metaphor, personification, and epithet) were identified.
