Lexical and Semantic Cooccurrence as a Criterion of Homonymity of Terminological Word Combinations and Phraseological Units

The article describes the features of the lexical cooccurrence of external phraseological homonyms with terminological phrases. Based on the analysis of the environment in the text of terminological phrases and homonymous phraseological units of subject, procedural, attributive and qualitative-adverbial types of semantics, it was found that morphological, structural and semantic differences between them are objectively manifested only in the context. It was revealed that phraseological units have greater syntactic activity and lexical cooccurrence. It was concluded that lexical-semantic cooccurrence can be a reliable criterion for distinguishing homonyms of this type.
