SOME TOPICAL ISSUES OF STUDYING EMOTIVE SEMANTICS
Emotions being an integral and significant component of human life find expression in the language, and play a significant role in its formation. Cognitive linguistics relates emotions to a conceptual picture of the world, which is a structured set of human knowledge about the world, and at the same time to a linguistic one which mediates this system of human knowledge in a symbolic way. The question of the relationship between the linguistic and conceptual pictures of the world is of the greatest interest for cognitive science. Since emotions receive a linguistic formalization, it seems necessary to understand this aspect of the emotive semantics of the language.
