Jargon compressive nominations from the point of view of the Russian linguistic world-image

Abstract

The object of study in this paper are the nominations with a subject semantics formed by compressive means and operating in Russian social dialects. Derivation, semantic, functional, communicative and cognitive features of slang compressive nominations are the subject of study. The analysis of this subject allows you to draw the conclusions about the contribution of these units in the Russian language picture of the world. The empirical material is extracted from authoritative dictionaries of modern Russian jargon and makes more than 1,100 compressive jargonistic derivatives. The conclusions about the functional and communicative features of these units are made on the basis of their use analysis in different in 3470 texts of different genres, extracted from the Russian language National corpus. The methodological base of the research is presented by the functional approach to linguistic facts, assuming the semasiological analysis of language unit body (from the form to the value and functions) followed by the generalization of obtained data and conclusions on onomasiological basis and their comprehension from the perspective of their linguistic picture of the world. The main result is that a whole fragment of nominative-derivation system of Russian slang formed by compressive derivation was analyzed first in the light of the functional approach. The main ways of slang compressive units are identified and described (univerbation and abbreviation), their relationship in modern social dialects is established (1041 pcs.: 165 pcs.); The models and the means of slang morphemic univerbation are identified; the standard and non-standard types of slang abbreviation are described. It was found that structural-derivational specifics of compressive jargon units is most clearly seen on the background of their denotative identity with the basic phrases of literary language.
