FIGURES OF SPEECH AND THE EXPRESSIVE MEANS OF LANGUAGE OF THE MANSI FOLKLORE
DOI: 10.23951/2307-6119-2019-1-97-104
The article is devoted to the characteristic of the figures of speech and expressive means of the Mansi language of lexical, phonetic, morphological, and syntactic levels of the language on the example of folklore texts. In modern linguistics, the language of Mansi children's oral folk art in the systemic-structural aspect has not been studied. In the present work we adhered to the methodological principles developed by Russian and foreign scientists: A. N. Balandin, E. I. Rombandeeva, A. Kannisto, B. Munkácsi, M. Liimola, etc. The choice of methodology was determined by the objectives and the purpose of the research. To solve the scientific problems we have applied linguoculturological approach to the consideration of texts of Mansi children's folklore. The use of the systemic-structural approach contributed to the explication of the integrity of the object of the research. Structural and semantic analysis also plays an important role in the research. Identification of texts representing the system of the figures of speech and the expressive means was carried out by the method of continuous sampling. The analyzed material shows that the special linguistic originality of the figures of speech and the expressive means is explicated, first of all, at the lexical level and is related to representation of outdated vocabulary (archaisms and historicisms), borrowing of nominations of the lexical and thematic groups ‘Orthodox faith’ and ‘traditional activity of the Mansi – reindeer herding, fishing, and hunting’. The combination of phonetic, lexical and semantic, stylistic and syntactic units in their special combination creates a special expressiveness and imagery in the texts of children's Mansi folklore. An important place in the process of forming of the structure of the genre palette of the Mansi texts is occupied by the units of formulaic character, which perform compositional, sense-forming and expressive functions and the system of repetitions, which play the role of stylistic, rhyming and compositional means.
