A MODEL OF THE DIACHRONIC SEMANTIC DIFFERENTIAL: STRATIFICATION OF LEXIS ON FUZZY PRINCIPLES (THE CASE OF OLDER SCOTS ADJECTIVES)
Journal Title: ІНОЗЕМНА ФІЛОЛОГІЯ - Year 2017, Vol 130, Issue
Abstract
The steps of a unified mathematical model for the study of synonymy in the context of paradigmatic and epidigmatic associative relationships are revealed in the paper. Joint fuzzy associative fields of two antonyms constitute on the one hand the main component of the associative map activated through fuzzification into a fuzzy associative verbal network, whilst on the other hand it represents a fuzzy modification of the Osgood semantic differential with a diachronic stratification of lexis. The connection of a considerable number of such components based on synonymous adjectives makes an episodical adjectival associative map according to the indicated by Kiss two fundamental relations, with its further activation into a fuzzy adjectival associative network. When it becomes possible to cover all language synonymy we can eventually talk about the Global Fuzzy Semantic Network as an efficient part of Artificial Intelligence.
