Z rodziną dobrze nie tylko na zdjęciu? O polskim stosunku do rodziny w opinii ankietowanych Polaków i Słoweńców

Abstract

This article discusses attitudes towards the family – one of the distinct semantic categories forming the linguo-cultural stereotype of a Pole, which we have reconstructed on the basis of questionnaire data. The methodology used is that of the linguistic image of the world, which includes stereotypes. The linguistic data was divided into sections: 1) type of relationship; 2) starting a family; family size and members; 3) other. The reconstructed model confirms that Poles have a very positive attitude to the family – as seen from their own, as well as a foreign (Slovenian) perspective. Poles form close family bonds, which is demonstrated by their strong attachment to tradition and family.
