Abstract
The article is devoted to 75th anniversary of Sergey I. Ozhegov’s explanatory Dictionary of Russian language. The article aims at presenting parametric description of birds in this dictionary and its linguocognitive background. The scientific novelty of the research is due to the fact that this issue wasn’t worked out in the researches of such segment of linguistic knowledge; the value of the research is wider than we can see it here in the article, because it covers in full the sphere of zoological semantics, including lexicographical description of any specimen of animal world. The article affirms that in human consciousness exists a certain image of a quantitative “anthropocentric norm” and describes its reflection in the dictionaries. The definitive and cognitive methods allow to reveal in the abovementioned Dictionary’s definitions some cultural and cognitive parametric senses and to exposure the language mechanisms of sense generation; the methods of contrastive analyses allow to compare the bird definitions of vocabulary entries contained in Sergey I. Ozhegov’s Dictionary and the entries of some other explanatory and special dictionaries of Russian language. The approach of Sergey I. Ozhegov reflects the consistency directed to quantitative logic of linguistic presentation of subject world and the domestic tradition of lexicographic description. The analysis is realized within the bounds of direction semantics of measure.
