REPRESENTATION OF REALITY IN THE LINGUISTIC WORLD PICTURE (COGNITIVE AND SEMANTIC ASPECTS)

Abstract

Language plays a key role in shaping cultural and social identities in the modern world. In this context, the study of the interaction between language and cognition becomes particularly relevant. Understanding how linguistic structures influence the perception of reality is crucial for a deeper analysis of intercultural communication and social interactions. This research aims to analyze linguistic structures such as metaphors, metonymies, and idioms, as well as their impact on the formation of the linguistic worldview in different cultures. The research methodology is based on a comprehensive approach. It includes the analysis of linguistic and cognitive aspects of language, as well as a comparative analysis of linguistic worldviews in different cultures. This has allowed us to consider language as a means of communication and a crucial element of cultural and social reality. The article explores the importance of linguistic structures, such as metaphors, metonymies, and idioms, in shaping the linguistic worldview and their influence on cultural and social realities. Special attention is given to the analysis of the interaction between cognition and language, examining how mental processes affect linguistic possibilities. The research has revealed that linguistic structures, such as metaphors and metonymies, significantly impact how people perceive and interpret the world around them.
