Structural Features of Synonymous Rows of the Yakut Phraseological Units
Scientific novelty. The most striking manifestation of consistency in the phraseological composition of the language can be considered the formation of successive synonymous rows. The article discusses the features of the construction of phraseological synonymous rows of the Yakut language with a focus on lexical and not on phraseological semantic dominant, which has not yet been the object of a special study. The aim of this article is to identify the features of the construction of a phraseological synonymous series in the Yakut language. The tasks of the study include: selection of phraseological synonyms from lexicographic and phraseographic sources; determination of the composition of the phraseological synonymic series; consideration of the criteria for identifying a phraseological synonymous series and its dominant, differentiation of phraseological material within a synonymous series. Research methods: when differentiating the meanings of phraseological synonyms, synonymous phraseological units within the synonymic series, component analysis, the method of oppositions, valency analysis were used, systematic techniques, quantitative calculation with interpretation of the data obtained were also used. Results. It was revealed that the synonymic rows include phraseological units that coincide in lexical, grammatical and categorical terms. The boundaries of the synonymic series are always open and mobile. The synonymic rows of phraseological units mainly consist of two members. A large number of synonymic series includes three synonyms. The dominant of a synonymic series is a word or a combination of words that has the widest semantic volume, the most general meaning, and is stylistically neutral. Within the synonymic series the analyzed units are qualified semantically, stylistically and they are divided into subgroups. The division into subgroups within the synonymic series is carried out according to a differential feature and on this basis the subgroups are opposed to each other. The identified phraseological synonymous series reflect complex systemic relationships between phraseological units.
