Abstract
Our point of interest in this paper is reverse onymic associative dictionary. The dataset on which we base our investigation is drafted from the 2021 free associative experiment. The experiment was conducted in Odesa I. I. Mechnikov University with 100 participants. Here we investigated correlations between associations and stimuli, taking onymic reactions into particular focus. In this paper we present the entries compiled in the following way: from associations to their stimuli, listed in alphabetical order. The current study found that onymic reactions cover all the onomastic terminological sphere, our findings include all the main classes of proper names: anthroponyms, toponyms, ethnonyms, theonyms, ideonyms, zoonyms, chrematonyms, chrononyms, ergonyms, phytonyms, cosmonyms. We conclude that the reverse onymic associative dictionary is one of the potent methodological instruments for onomastic studies. The reverse onymic associative dictionary clarifies cultural constants and traditional memetic units which are present in the Ukrainian society.
