LINGUISTIC FEATURES OF THE CONCEPT OF “LOVE” IN RUSSIAN AND ARABIC CONTEXTS

Abstract

The concept of love is a multifaceted and polysemous concept that has been studied in various disciplines, including philosophy, psychology, linguistics, sociology and neuroscience. In a philosophical context, love is analyzed from the point of view of its emotional, ethical, existential, anthropological and metaphysical aspects. The emotional aspect of love encompasses feelings of affection, passion and tenderness, while the ethical aspect views love as a virtue and the basis of moral behavior. The existential aspect emphasizes the role of love in the search for meaning in life and self-realization, and the anthropological aspect explores its significance for the development of personality and human nature. In the context of globalization, the concept of love is also influenced by global processes, transforming family structures and intimate relationships in different cultures. Thus, the concept of love is a central and polysemantic element of human experience, enriching our understanding of emotions, relationships and cultural norms. The article demonstrates that love, despite its universal nature, acquires unique features and meanings depending on the cultural context in which it manifests itself.
