Historical commentary on the study of speech culture

Article preview

The article considers fragments of teaching speech culture attracting the language history data. The reason for variation in endings of nouns in the Modern Russian language is seen as a result of interference of the Old Russian language declension types or the influence of the dual number form which was consecutively lost in the language.

There is an analysis of variant endings of genitive and prepositional cases in singular, and also the ones of nominative and genitive cases in plural. All these word forms can be equivalent or they can have semantic or stylistic differences.

The use of pronoun-substantive approximators in the art text

Article preview

The modern Russian Language is characterized by use of analytical nominative units, such as pronominal – substantive combinations (comp.: «something strange»), which compensate approximative insufficiency of lexicon in individual perception. Such nominative units are functions of nominative-syntactical semiosis when denotation is formed with the help of syntactic parts of the text. These analytical groups are idiostylistic markers, which are typical of the language of belles-lettres literature. Approximation as nominative phenomenon plays the main role in the foundation of the language world picture. Besides, it helps to give the characteristics of the field of Russian concepts and the mental world of Russian people.

To the question about the nominative picture of the world of the Russian language

Article preview

The nominative world picture of the Russian language is interpreted as a vocabulary of Russian speech field. Its main task is to be associated as a cognio-linguistic system of nomination. The structure of nominative units is determined by specific features of syntactic organization of a sentence which presents the topic’s peculiarity of relations between the objects of cognition. The Russian speech world picture is characterized by a frequent use of non-standard textual nominations based on the syntactic parts of communication. Nominative-syntactical semiosis open the way to see some «distance» between reference and nomination. It can signify the emergence of ethnomental parts of sense which give some interest as to say about the dialogue of linguistic cultures.

Peculiarities of nomination of medicinal raw materials in pharmaceutical discourse

Article preview

Pharmaceutic discourse is a special cultural code which forms a cogniolinguistic field that is related to the manufacture and consumption of medical products. Medicinal herbs as raw materials are one of the nominative objects in this code. The term combines two origins – conspective and evocative that interact with each other during the process of evolution of word symbols. The poetic word of myths and legends records the main objects of nature, plants with healing properties and their aesthetic value. Picking and making medicines, as well as treating have always been accompanied in history by magic exorcism. These extralinguistic factors are fixed in the language.

Communicative paradigm of modernity: cultural aspect

Article preview

The article contains an overview of communicative realities corresponding to the present state of culture and society. Modern culture is marked with noticeable predominance of subject-to-object relationships, indicative for consumer society.
