EXPRESSIVITY AS A COMPONENT OF ANTHROPOCENTRIC PARADIGM IN THE LANGUAGE (BY THE EXAMPLE OF THE TUVINIAN AND RUSSIAN LANGUAGES)
The paper argues that expressivity is a means to express anthropocentric paradigm in the language. Providing comparative-contrastive analysis of two languages (Tuvinian and Russian) the author shows how metaphorization of names of different creatures and inanimate objects serves to designate a human being. Semantic derivation results in the appearance of new linguistic units which constitute the argumentative basis of the research. It is shown that a human being represents in the language not only the world but also his self-image.
