Culturally Marked Linguistic Units: Based on the Material of Cinemorphisms
Abstract
Linguoculture reflects the interaction between language, culture, national codes, and mythological cognitive processes, using the example of cinemorphisms in various languages. The current research analyzes the theoretical foundations of the concept of cinemorphisms, their historical and cultural origins, and their role in languages, taking into account cultural connotations. Special attention is given to the comparative analysis of the semantic, pragmatic, and cultural characteristics of cinemorphisms to identify similarities and differences in their usage. The study also addresses key aspects of intercultural communication, the influence of language on worldview formation, and the preservation of cultural identity. It also examines the main tenets of linguoculture, ethnolinguistics, and cognitive linguistics. The identifies the relationship between language and culture, national code and mythological cognitive processes through the analysis of cinemorphisms, as well as to study the historical and cultural formation of linguistic units associated with the semantics of "dog". The following methods were used in the work: Lexicographic analysis: study of linguistic units and phraseological constructions associated with the dog’s image based on dictionaries and encyclopedic sources. Comparative historical method: analysis of the historical formation of cinemorphisms, their mythological and cultural origin. Linguacultural analysis: identification of cultural
