| Description |
The relevance of this study is due to the fact that in modern scientific research there is a change in scientific paradigms in the study of language as a poly-paradigmatic system. Thus, the per-ception of a particular word is considered through apprehending the concept behind the verbal code. Within this framework, both the perceptual experience and the previously formed body of knowledge on a sign operate. Verbs denoting the notions “open” and “hide” are studied to reconstruct an integral picture of these processes. The author identified and analyzed the lexical groups and semantic fields in the three lan-guages under the study, and identified the common and distinctive features of the semantic prototypes of the lexico-semantic groups. The data is collected from modern dictionaries and national corpuses. The findings of the cognitive linguistic analysis using the contrastive systems in three related languages allow to reconstruct an integral linguistic picture in studying the notions “open” and “hide”. The study combined the content elements revealed during the processing of the findings of the free associative experiment with the cognitive linguistic analysis of the lexico-semantic groups under the study. The verbs in the lexico-semantic group under the study reflect the features of the national linguistic and cognitive worldview and identify a number of semantic features that make it possible to obtain their comprehensive picture. The research findings allow reconstructing mental representations and stereotyped associations, and re-flecting on broad cultural processes in the history of these three nations.
