This article is devoted to the cognitive study of ironic metonymy in Russian and Arabic. Metonymy and irony have traditionally been seen as parallel linguistic phenomena. But their formation and interpretation are based on different cognitive mechanisms. At the formal and functional level, metonymy and irony have a number of significant differences. Metonymy is an artistic technique, the mechanism of which is based on obvious, easily traced connections between objects and phenomena of the surrounding world. Irony is a satirical technique or a rhetorical figure that is used to create a certain artistic image, aimed at forming the hidden meaning of the statement. A native speaker intuitively feels the difference between metonymy and irony and expresses it in a linguistic form. Аннотация Данная статья посвящена когнитивному исследованию иронической метонимии в русском и арабском языках. Метонимия и ирония традиционно рассматривались как параллельные языковые явления. Но в основе их образования и интерпретации лежат разные когнитивные механизмы. На формальном и функциональном уровне метонимия и ирония имеют ряд существенных различий. Метонимия – художественный прием, в основе механизма которого лежат очевидные, легко прослеживаемые связи предметов и явлений окружающего мира. Ирония – сатирический прием либо риторическая фигура, которые используются для создания определенного художественного образа, направлены на формирование скрытого смысла высказывания. Носитель языка интуитивно чувствует разницу между метонимией и иронией и выражает ее в языковой форме. Имеют метонимия и ирония много общих характеристик с точки зрения семантики и коммуникативных свойств. Они представляют собой лингвистически двухслойные явления, в которых проявляется творческая функция языка.
This study investigates the phonological adaptation of diphthongs within English loanwords in Iraqi Arabic (IA). In contrast to earlier small-scale descriptive studies, this study used quantitative content analysis to analyse 346 established loanwords collected through document review and direct observation to determine the diphthong adaptation patterns involved in the nativisation of English loanwords by native speakers of IA. Content analysis results revealed that most GB diphthong adaptations in English loanwords in IA occur in systematic patterns and thus may be ascribed to particular aspects in both L1 and L2 phonological systems. More specifically, the results indicate that the IA output forms tend to maintain the features of the GB i
... Show MoreChekhov is well known and perceived in Arab countries. His stories and plays are very popular. They translated it into Arabic by different translators from different languages of the world Many of his stories require new translation solutions to achieve partial, if not complete, equivalence. Chekhov's works are a very difficult subject to analyze and interpret, which is explained by the fact that Chekhov's collections are constantly republished in foreign languages.
