Abstract

The relevance of this work is due to the formation of a new integrated area of research ethnolinguoculturology, and the lack of a clear approach to the definition of objects and subjects of ethnolinguistics and cultural linguistics (linguoculturology), which are integral parts of this new area. The purpose of the work is to determine the object and subject of ethnolinguistics and сultural linguistics based on the analysis of scientific works of domestic and foreign authors related to this problem. The author substantiates the position that the object of synchronic ethnolinguistics are ethnospecific phenomena of language (non-equivalent vocabulary, lexical units with ethno-specific structures, values, idioms and proverbs, reflecting the peculiarities of the mentality, ethno-specific derivational means, grammatical forms, syntactic structure, part-of-speech form of words), and the subject – the specific features of the worldview, axiology and pragmatics of a particular ethnic group. The object of cultural linguistics, according to the author, is the verbalized part of the «language of culture» (culturallymarked words and expressions, phraseological units and proverbs, lacunae, verbal and non-verbal symbols (for example, birch as a symbol of Russia), mythologems (for example, living and dead water), rites and beliefs, rituals and customs, enshrined in language, slogans, precedent phenomena, etiquette formula). and etiquette rules of speech and non-speech behavior, and the subject is the culturally significant information contained explicitly or implicitly in the verbalized units of the language of culture, as well as the national specificity of etiquette rules.
