The purpose of this article is to describe the structure of the category under consideration, identified on the Yakut material. The study is based on the functional-semantic approach, which allows us to display the holistic organization of universal semantic categories with specific content and means of expression. A brief description of the main directions of research into the category of beingness in linguistics, based on functional-semantic, linguopragmatic, syntactic approaches, is given. The structure of the functional- semantic category of beingness in Yakut is presented. The structure of the functional-semantic category of beingness in the Yakut language is presented. It was revealed that the functional-semantic field of beingness in Yakut has a polycentric structure, which is determined by the type of relationship of the semantics of beingness to the grammatical category (noun and verb) and the syntactic structure of the sentence (predicative and nominative constructions). From the position of the functional-semantic approach, the means of expressing the category of beingness in the Yakut can be combined into a functional-semantic field, consisting of two parts: the microfield of beingness, expressed by nominal means of denoting existence/non- existence, being/non-existence, presence/absence, and the microfield of beingness, represented by verbal means of denoting existence/non-existence, being/non-existence, presence/absence. The indicated parts of the functional-semantic field of beingness in the Yakut consist of multi-level means, dispersed according to the “center – periphery” principle.

On this occasion, the Institute for Humanities Research and Problems of Indigenous Peoples of the North SB RAS, Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) and the Administration of the municipal district “Verkhnekolymsky ulus (rayon)” are hosting a Russian conference “Languages of the indigenous peoples of Russia in interdisciplinary discourse” on December 14, 2023. Petr Sleptsov developed theoretical and applied directions of the modern Yakut linguistics, including lexicology, lexicography, sociolinguistics, linguo-folkloristics, ethnolinguistics, and history of language. He is a leading Yakut lexicographer, deeply delving into the historical and cultural role of linguistic evidence and written language. Under his leadership, editorship and co-authorship the Yakut-Russian Dictionary (1972) was created, which was the first normative dictionary of medium volume in the Yakut language. After the release of this dictionary, Petr Alekseevich managed to concentrate the main forces of his students – linguists on the creation of a very complex and time-consuming work – a multi-volume Great Academic Explanatory Dictionary of the Yakut Language. Petr Alekseevich begun this tremendous project in 1972, it was successfully completed in 2018 after 46 years in 15 volumes of 769 printed sheets, covering 80 thousand words and phraseological units. During this time, he was the permanent editor-in-chief of all volumes of the dictionary. This dictionary represents a new type of explanatory dictionaries of Turkic languages. First of all, the Dictionary is not only descriptive, i. e. fixing certain rules for usage of words, but also a national dictionary of the descriptive registering type. It means that, taking into account the diversity of the existing vocabulary, the authors sought to cover and present the lexical richness of the language of the Yakut people as fully as possible. This refers to defining a dictionary type as “registering”. Another feature is that the dictionary is bilingual. The goal of the dictionary was to ensure the introduction of the richest material to a wide scholarly audience through the Russian language. With this project, Petr Alekseevich attracted several generations of linguists from his students and like-minded people to a very complex, but always fascinating, interesting and promising field of scientific activity – lexicography. Thanks to this project there exists a team of lexicographers, the Sleptsov school of Yakut lexicographers under the leadership of Member of the Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), laureate of the State Prize of the R","PeriodicalId":472829,"journal":{"name":"Altaistics","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135435571","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For this purpose, on the basis of the psychological theory of activity, the introduction of the category of significance into the ethnopsycholinguistic modeling of the structure and content of values is proposed; the separation of motivational and functional significance is substantiated. The procedure of ethnopsycholinguistic analysis of the motivational and functional significance of the value “democracy” is demonstrated by the example of data analysis of the associative experiment. Conclusions are drawn about the high motivational significance of democracy, which is manifested in the nature of the semantic connection between speech actions expressing internal needs, the situation of satisfying these needs and the emotional and evaluative attitude to this situation; about the functional significance expressed in the limited nature of speech operations. The high prognostic potential of the psycholinguistic approach to the study of the significance of values and the role of speech activity in its formation and functioning is noted.","PeriodicalId":472829,"journal":{"name":"Altaistics","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135480693","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

S. Fedorov – Sameer Basylai in 1983. As the source text for the comparison, we used Russian translations made by the Hansen spouses of the fairy-tales by famous Danish writer Hans Christian Andersen: “Wild Swans”, “Flint”, “Steady Tin Soldier”, “Piggy Bank”, “Ugly Duckling”, “Snow Queen”, “Nightingale”, “Shepherd Girl and Chimney Sweep”, “Old House”, “Magic Hill”, “Flying Chest”, and “Thumbelina”. A comparative and descriptive method was used with the use of the classification of stylistic errors made in the Yakut translation. The methodological basis of this study was the work of Russian researchers I. B. Golub and G. Y. Solganika in the field of stylistics and culture of speech of the Russian language, as well as educational publications in the Yakut language by T. I. Petrova, A. A. Vasilyeva, and N. A. Efremova. The authors gave an objective assessment of the quality of the translation of the text in the Yakut language, based on the analysis, the following types of stylistic errors in the translated text were identified: 1) at the lexical level (confusion in the meaning of the word, redundancy, insufficiency of the word, violation of the usual and literary norms, distortion of phraseological units, interspersed with clericalisms); 2) at the grammatical level (adding inappropriate affixes); 3) at the syntactic level (violation of the order of words in a sentence).","PeriodicalId":472829,"journal":{"name":"Altaistics","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135435577","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The comparative typological method is especially important when studying the word-formationsystems of two languages in order to identify similarities and differences. Complex words actively replenishthe lexical stock of the language in all its functional varieties. There is a fairly voluminous layer of vocabularyof composite words representing the names of birds – ornithonyms. The abundance of composite words inthe Yakut and Altai languages used for naming birds, and the lack of work on their comprehensive researchand systematization indicates the need for scientific research of bird names. The purpose of this work isto study the lexical and semantic features and word-formation structures of composite words denoting thenames of birds in the Yakut and Altai languages. In order to achieve this goal, the following tasks are solved:identification of the functional meaning of composite words; consideration of the history of the study of birdnames in Turkic linguistics; systematization of bird names in the Yakut and Altai languages; establishmentof the main lexico-semantic groups, methods of formation and structural models of composite ornithonyms.This study uses a set of methods: comparative, descriptive and quantitative methods. The scientific noveltyof the work consists in the fact that the issues of comparative analysis of composite words denoting thenames of birds in the Yakut and Altai languages were not the subject of special study. The theoretical andpractical significance of the work is that its materials can be used in the study of composite ornithonyms inother Turkic languages, as well as in the development of lecture courses, seminars on vocabulary.","PeriodicalId":472829,"journal":{"name":"Altaistics","volume":"54 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135436037","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
