Functioning features of lexical-phraseological predicates with the meaning of wealth / poverty in the modern Russian language

The article is devoted to the study of the specifics of the use of verbal lexemes and their phraseological analogues with the meaning of wealth / poverty in the modern Russian language. The relevance of the work is due to the need for a detailed analysis of the functional semantics of these units, which constitute a significant grouping within the semantic field of social state predicates. The scientific novelty of the study lies in the comprehensive approach to the consideration of social state predicates, which allows us to more fully explain the role of these units in the linguistic representation of the economic aspects of society. The work uses a set of linguistic methods, including the analysis of dictionary definitions, contextual analysis, and stylistic analysis. It has been established that verbal predicates and their phraseological analogues with the meaning of wealth / poverty are actively used in modern Russian, serving as an important means of expressing ideas about the dynamics of the social state. Within the micro fields «wealth» and «poverty», a number of subgroups are distinguished, the elements of which emphasize various aspects of the processes of acquisition or loss of well-being: their intensity, ways and methods of achieving wealth, consequences, etc. Phraseological units in the analyzed micro fields form oppositions depending on positive or negative connotation, with units of the second type prevailing.
