Abstract
The author analyzes the state of study of the flower conceptual code of the Polish language and culture, methods and approaches to the study of the components of the conceptual codes used in modern ethnolinguistics. The article proposes ways to expand and enrich information about the floral conceptual code of the Polish language and culture. With this aim it is necessary to take into account the data of questionnaires, onomastic sources, as well to identify cases of interaction of conceptual codes. The cases of interaction of conceptual codes are divided into two types: those in which the flower code performs a sending function, and those in which it performs a receiving function. Analysis of language data revealed that the floral conceptual code performed the sending function less often than the receiving one. Interaction in both directions is inherent in floral and anthropological, sacred, vital, temporal, locative, medical, zoological, coloristic, attributive, code of applied culture, code of emotions and feelings. The flower conceptual code acts as a donor only in relations with codes of art and science. Floral conceptual code has the receiving function only in interaction with the quantitative, numerical, action, astronomical, plant codes and code of inanimate nature. The flower conceptual code acts exclusively as the recipient in the interaction with several codes at the same time. Donors in this case can be anthropological and coloristic, numerical and temporal, numerical and coloristic, code of applied culture and sacred, zoological and code of plants, temporal and code of action, code of inanimate nature and of action, temporal and astronomical. The interaction of floral and coloristic conceptual codes represents a special type, which can be described as mutual penetration. In addition, anthropological and floral conceptual codes show parallelism in certain fragments in their subordination to the vital code.
