ONYMIA OF VALUE PICTURE OF THE WORLD (BASED ON UKRAINIAN, RUSSIAN, ENGLISH AND GERMAN PHRASEMICS)
Abstract
The article is devoted to the definition of versatility and originality of onyms on the phraseological level of the axiological world’s image in Ukrainian, Russian, English and German. The phraseological level of axiological world’s image in homo- and heterogeneous languages is the object of research. The phrasemes-representatives of values with the component-onym in Ukrainian, Russian, English and German are the subject of the study. The main method of research is parametric analysis of the semantic structure of phraseme with the accentuation of evaluative macrocomponent. Analysis of the relation of components-onyms of the phraseme and the number of their values in the axiological world’s image revealed the absolute dominance of uniqueness and, therefore, main correlation with one value. The exception is the onym God which demonstrates relatively high phraseological activity in all of the analyzed languages and reveals the relationship with the values of "life", "freedom", "truth", "verity", "money" and "happiness". The onyms God and Mother of God are labelled with positive, negative or diffuse assessment in Ukrainian phraseology. Thus, the components-onyms are the most unique on the phraseological level of the axiological world’s image.
