HISTORICAL AND CULTURAL PRECONDITIONS AND PROSPECTS FOR CREATION OF A RUSSIAN-TURKISH LINGUOCULTURAL DICTIONARY

Abstract

The article examines the historical and cultural prerequisites for the formation of linguocultural terminology in Turkish Russian studies and substantiates the need for creating a Russian-Turkish linguocultural dictionary. The aim of the study is to identify the specific features of borrowing and adapting key scholarly terms under the conditions of language reform and the normative activity of the Türk Dil Kurumu. Based on Turkish academic studies and comparative analysis, it is shown that the calquing of Russian linguocultural concepts (kültürdilbilim, dilsel dünya görüşü) is carried out without due consideration of cultural specificity, which leads to semantic and methodological distortions. Stable differences in the cultural codes of Russian and Turkish idiomatic expressions, which are not reflected in existing dictionaries, are identified. The study substantiates the relevance of developing a Russian-Turkish linguocultural dictionary that would record not only formal correspondences but also cultural connotations and lacunae, which is of practical significance for teaching Russian as a foreign language, translation studies, and intercultural communication.
