Abstract
The article is devoted to the concept of creating a motivational dictionary of modern Ukrainian legal vocabulary, which is a lexicographic description of motivational associations generated by a word during its perception and semantization and obtained as a result of a directed associative experiment. This article presents a psycholinguistic study that motivatedness is understood as the property of a word, which allows realizing the conditionality of the connection meaning (the content) and the sound shape of the word (expression) on the basis of the correlation of the word with the linguistic, extra-linguistic reality and mental categories. Definition of classification parameters of the concept of motivation (motivatedness) applied for terminology research and development of methodological principles of the motivation research of terminology vocabulary. The role of the associative experiment in studying the potential of the word motivation is fundamental, since it is the associative experiment that allows the legal researcher to identify the comprehension, awareness by the native speakers of the motivational associativity of the lexical units of the modern Ukrainian legal text, to move from observing and analyzing the motivational activity of a limited number of words to a systematic study of the potential of the whole lexical array of language, thereby providing valuable material for lek a sycographic and theoretical description of the motivation of words, because the experimental data, determining the degree of manifestation of motivational nature, make it possible to classify lexical units into motivated and unmotivated, highly motivated and weakly motivated ones, reveal the existence of motivational-associative stereotypes or their absence, the ratio of the motivationalassociative standard and deviations from it. With the help of materials obtained using an associative experiment, the development of the word motivation, the similarity or difference of its modern formal-semantic interpretation can be revealed. In modern linguistics, it is commonly accepted that words (meaning of words) are motivated, depending on the preservation of the internal form of the word.
