CULTURAL FEATURES OF VERBALIZATION OF DONATIVE ACTION “BORG” IN GERMAN

Abstract

Donative action focuses on the dynamic component of the conceptual content of the subject-object relationship and is defined as a change in the relationship of possession. The semantic space of donative action includes semantic variations of the integrative meaning of loss / acquisition. This article discusses the ethnocultural specifics of verbalization of the donative action Borg (loan) in German. The basis for identifying the national features of the actualization of the donative action is the establishment of the relationship between its linguistic expression and the basic cultural concepts of the German communicative space Ordnung, Sparsamkeit, Sicherheit. The linguistic analysis has shown that the linguistic objectification of donative action Borg is conditioned by the national ideas of order, economy and confidence and is a fundamental concept to German-speaking society.
