Abstract
The study of the concept and essence of space, the characteristics of its perception and verbalization has become widespread in various fields of knowledge, including in the cognitive field of linguistic research. Space is of particular importance for the individual, since through its prism the perception of reality takes place. The article examines the peculiarities of formation of a trope with spatial semantics as a result of the action of the metaphorization mechanism.
The purpose of the research: to determine the meaning of the spatial culture code in the formation of a trope with spatial semantics.
Methods of the research: descriptive, comparative, component analysis method.
The results: along with the perceived similarity conceptualized at the level of cognition between the cognitive-perceptual-affective experience of an individual, its object and components as a result of metaphorization operations (analogization, similarity and resemblance), the spatial culture code takes part in the metaphorization process. It has been established that spatial perception is a complex process that combines perceptual and cognitive elements. The result of the perception of space (image) is a significant element of the individual’s perceptual experience, which is the basis of the process of metaphorization, as a result of which a trope with spatial semantics is formed. This type of trope can be based on both a spatial and non-spatial image, since lexemes that verbalize a trope with spatial meaning can change the semantics during the operation of the cognitive mechanism of metaphorization.
The conceptualization of perceptual-cognitive-affective experience is not identical among representatives of different linguistic cultures. Tropes with spatial semantics have cultural markings due to the changing experience of an individual’s interaction with the reality.
Conclusion: the process of metaphorization is influenced by the spatial culture code.
