Abstract

While the lexemes горі and долі express opposite meanings, they mostly retain the identity of a semantic entity. The article analyses more than 300 micro-contexts of the function of these lexemes from dialectological sources. The semantics and grammar of lexemes are studied in the light of the functioning and action of the words in “live” contexts where they act as adverbs and prepositions. This article reviews lexicographical interpretation of words. The semantic structure of lexemes in the South-Western dialects of Ukrainian language is modelled.The analysed units represent the semantics and features typical of the South-Western dialects of the Ukrainian language. The sources of research are dialect dictionaries and texts (from 19th c. until now), regional linguistic atlases, records of the dialectal speech made by the author and other researchers. The dialectal data are provided in comparative tables of the lexemes’ semantics.
