COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE FIGURATIVE SYSTEM OF DARGINIAN AND RUSSIAN PAROEMIAS

Abstract

The article considers a figurative system of Dargin and Russian paremias. The figurative system of paremiological units of any language can be determined by the composition that is included in it. For the most part, the figurative composition of paremias is based on nouns, as supporting words included in the paremia. This also includes phraseological expressions. Note that the range of names-reference words included in the paremiological unit is limited. Such supporting words determine the transfer of the figurative composition of the paroemias. Usually such words include certain connotations. In both paremiological foundations, by the nature of connotative meanings, by the types of symbolization, we have identified such types of nouns that are the supporting words in these paremias, as: animals and birds, food, foodstuffs, body parts, human names (occupation), abstract names. The distribution into these species is due to the connotative meaning of their meaning. Different species and groups are characterized by certain traits that are transferred from animals to humans, their character, actions, which causes associations, that is, connotativity. Body parts serve as symbols that contribute to the characterization of human functions. In the Darginian language, some parts of the body (liver) are symbols of consanguinity. The names of food and foodstuffs most often symbolize labor, but they are also symbols of abundance, prosperity. The most common in both languages are paremias with reference words-the names of abstract phenomena. This is due to the wide range of dissemination of these concepts, and their connotative meaning.
