The article examines the way the english phraseological units containing ethnonyms function in modern media discourse. The research tests the hypothesis, according to which idioms with embedded ethnonyms do not fit the modern social paradigm, which entails some usage limitations. The semantic properties of such conventional idioms are investigated and, as a result, the following classes are established: phraseological units that contain ethnic stereotypes and possess negative connotation; idioms that are not connotative and do not express any ethnic stereotypes; phraseological units that do not express ethnic stereotypes but are marked by some negative connotation. The analysis of functioning of idioms with incorporated ethnonyms reveals that the english units expressing negative stereotypical views on ethnic groups are excluded from modern media discourse because they do not fit the reigning paradigm of inclusiveness and tolerance. In media texts, phraseological expressions with ethnonyms are involved in play on words based on their literal and figurative meanings. The activation of each meaning is described as a dual route model: the computation of idiomatic expressions goes faster than that of novel phrases as they are easy to retrieve from the memory. The analysis also reveals that the contextual usage of sample idioms entails some transformations of their meaning and the loss of connection with the primarily denoted ethnic group.

The determination of new words and meanings is a key issue in lexical history studies. However,
common reliance on identifying “the earliest examples” can be challenged by textual complexity and subjective
disagreements. Focusing on the emergence of the FAST meaning of kuai (快), this study proposes criteria for
identifying new meanings from the perspective of the lexical system. ...

The article examines Old Russian anthroponyms with the suffix -ec-, originally conveying the meaning ‘less than X’. A diachronic corpus study of
11th–17th-century texts reveals that while this suffix lacked inherent pejorative
connotations in Old Russian sources, contextual (adherent) pejoration is clearly
observable. For pre-15th-century chronicles, two primary usage patterns are
identified—1) characters with explicit negative evaluation, and 2) ...

The story of the Tower of Babel (Gen 11:1-9) is one of the key episodes in the narratives of the Book of Genesis. In modern scholarship, various—often sharply divergent—datings of this pericope are proposed, as well as different interpretations of its place in the picture of the formation of the biblical text that was put ...

Like other narratives in the Book of Genesis, the story of Cain and Abel (Gen 4:1–16) has been studied and commented upon for more than two millennia. However, recent scholarship has introduced significant revisions to traditional interpretations. Over the past five years, several monumental commentaries on Genesis 1–11 have been published, offering new—and sometimes mutually ...

The paper is devoted to the variable number marking in Shughni
nouns and reports the results of corpus and experimental studies. In some languages,
including Shughni, the marking of plural nouns is not compulsory. Many
factors such as animacy, referentiality, morphological and semantic properties,

This book is a metaphysical inquiry into the nature and origin of the manifold. Taking Schelling’s Erlangen lectures of 1820–1821 as its point of departure and hermeneutic horizon, it develops an interpretation of Nomos that transcends its political, juridical, and social determinations. Nomos thereby emerges as the ontological principle of an infinite, variegated multiplicity of ...

Новая книга Д. Файзова пронизана голосами других поэтов. Речь не о расхожей постмодернистской центонности. Это микроинтертекстуальность на уровне конкретных слов и приемов, коллаж осколков чужих голосов, однако таких осколков, которые сохраняют способность отсылать к целому и к тому же вписаны — вклеены на манер аппликации — в узнаваемую интонацию самого поэта.

Individualism–collectivism (I-C), the most widely researched cultural dimension, is often equated with Hofstede’s pioneering nation scores. Concerns are growing about these scores’ validity, but subsequent research has not produced a widely accepted alternative. Here, we offer a refined theoretical conceptualization of I-C, we systematically reevaluate the validity of Hofstede’s I-C scores, and we report the ...

This article examines the semantic and pragmatic transformations of cognitive linguistic terms influenced by mass media. When introduced into non-specialized discourse, a term can lose its connection with its scientific concept and develop new, common meanings through processes of narrowing, broadening, differentiation, attraction, metaphorical and metonymic transfer, and more. This results in an incorrect representation ...
