Abstract
The article examines the symbolic component of the semantics of nominations for items of clothing in Russian traditional costume. The symbolic component of the meaning of the analyzed lexical units was identified through linguoculturological analysis. With its help, representatives are identified that testify to it as a cultural sign. The purpose of linguocultural analysis is to determine the totality of connotative components of the meaning of a word, including the symbolic one. To optimally structure a commentary, an answer to several questions is necessary: identifying the degree of objectivity of the procedure, clarifying the scope of its content, as well as determining the sequence of inclusion of components through which the symbolic semantics of a word is represented. The aim of the work is to determine the specifics of objectification of the cultural-symbolic component of the semantics of clothing nominations. The objectives are to identify lexical representative units that have a symbolic component of meaning in their semantics and to determine the set of symbolic components of meaning in clothing names. The research material was data from the dialects of the Middle Ob region recorded in the dictionaries of the Tomsk Dialectological School and the database of the Tomsk Dialect Corpus. The empirical basis of the work was formed using a continuous sampling method. The article implements the general scientific method of description. Methods of interpretation and linguocultural commentary are used. Techniques of contextual analysis, classification, systematization are the main ones when working with the studied layer of lexical units. The illustrative material included in the article contains facts of actualization of the symbolic component of clothing nominations in living dialect speech. Linguoculturological analysis, which allows stating that there is a symbolic connotative component in the semantics of the studied units, shows the idea of the symbolic in culture, which is firmly rooted in the archaic consciousness because it establishes a model of integral existence, knowledge about the orderliness of the world on the principles of correlation between phenomena and processes.
