LINGUOCULTURAL CONCEPT AS A BASIC UNIT OF STUDY IN LINGUOCULTUROLOGY

This article explores the linguocultural concept as the fundamental unit of study in linguoculturology, examining its structural components and significance in understanding the relationship between language and culture. Through a comprehensive analysis of relevant literature, the paper investigates how linguocultural concepts function as mental constructs that reflect national worldviews and cultural identities. The findings highlight the tripartite structure of linguocultural concepts comprising notional, figurative, and value components, and demonstrate their role in cross-cultural communication and translation studies.
