Abstract

The article examines the English attributive word combinations and the format of knowledge they represent. The paper aims to analyse the process of developing the attributive meaning on the basis of an established model from the viewpoint of cognitive linguistics, which conditions originality of the study. The findings indicate that this format of knowledge presupposes the use of the implicit basic predicate with explicit arguments and requires competence in such issues as types of the English attributive combinations, relations between the components, ways to put them together, means of objectification.
