Anthropocentric Proverbs As A Concentration Of Axiological Features Of A Language

Abstract

The article is devoted to the problem of axiological comprehension by the native speakers of the phenomena of reality, which leaves a special imprint on the formation of the linguistic picture of the world. According to the results of the analysis of the linguistic picture of the world, reflected in anthropocentric proverbs, the axiological marking of social facts in the minds of native speakers is closely connected with the national mentality of the people, for values and antiquity are the basic units of culture. Verbal expression in the proverbs of the perception of the world and attitude to it is carried out through the prism of the value system of the individual and society as a whole. Evaluation of the expressed content through a person’s value system, through a circle of meanings meaningful for him and for society, determines the axiological picture of the world. It follows that the proverb, like any other text, is valuable, i.e. axiologically colored and serves as a rich source for revealing the value orientations of the linguistic picture of the world.
