Reconstruction of the linguistic world in modern linguistic semantics

Abstract

The paper examines the theoretical basis of the research linguistic world. YAKM notion includes two related but different ideas: 1) picture of the world, the proposed language is different from the "scientific" and 2) each language draws his painting depicting reality differently than do other languages. YAKM reconstruction is one of the most important tasks of modern linguistic semantics. YAKM study conducted in two directions, in accordance with the above two components of this concept. On the one hand, on the basis of a system of semantic analysis of the vocabulary used in a language is the reconstruction of a whole system of ideas, reflected in the language, without regard to whether it is a specific system or a universal language that reflects a "naive" view of the world as opposed to the "scientific." On the other hand, we investigate some specific to the language (lingvospetsifichnye) concepts, which have two properties: they are the "key" to the culture and at the same time the corresponding words poorly translated into other languages: translation equivalents or missing, or an equivalent, in principle, but it does not contain a value for the components that are specific to a given word.
