American english phraseology in modern learner’s dictionaries of English: another approach to dictionary criticism.
Анотація
It has been already widely accepted by linguists that modern language studies can not be considered full-fledged if they are devoid of a cultural approach to lingual phenomena analysis. Cultural linguistics as a relatively new philological branch primarily deals with live communication processes conditioned by a wide use of culture-specific vocabulary, which characterizes the world-view and mentality of nation representatives. Ideas of the anthropocentric paradigm in studying a language and its national-territorial variants are increasingly acquiring more actuality for the present-day development of cultural linguistics as a new humanities sphere. Besides nationally specific concepts as fragments of the world picture which in a certain culture acquire symbolic and reference value, figurative, mostly metaphorical meaning, its subject is also the paremiological and phraseological language stock.Посилання
