The Necessity of a Comparative Study of Color Semantics in Modern Linguistic Typology (on the example of green and black colors)
Abstract
This article substantiates the theoretical and practical necessity of a comparative-typological study of color semantics within the framework of modern linguistic typology. The role of color nomination in the linguistic picture of the world is explored, and the semantics of color are investigated on a scientific linguistic basis from a linguocultural perspective. While the distinguishing features of color semantics and the linguocultural analysis of universals common to many languages have served as a unifying factor in the comparative study of color semantics in modern typology, the semantic analysis of colors and the interpretation of their conceptual essence based on differential distinctions provide a foundation for defining this research as a significant contribution to the development of the field through their specific mutual semantization.
