Abstract
Modern linguistics considers language as a social phenomenon, closely linked to the culture and history of the people. It focuses on the individuality of a native speaker, which is revealed through the scrutinizing of language reflecting the spiritual essence, motivation and value hierarchy that exists in the mind of a native speaker. Language in person and person in language is analyzed, the most commonly used turns and expressions, those is revealed the highest level of empathy to. The human intellect, like the man himself, is inconceivable beyond the language and language ability, as an ability to create the perception of speech. It intervenes in all mental processes, creates new mental spaceSense and nonsense are philosophical concepts that are becoming increasingly important in today’s society that is constantly evolving. This is due to the rapid development of science, education, saturation of information, culture and life of people. In our work we try to find common features and distinctive features of expressing concepts of “reason” and “stupidity” in English and Ukrainian language world. The scheme means conceptualizing intellectual abilities phraseology can be represented as follows. Central to take reasonable frames – stupid concepts further subdivided as follows: Reason: education, reasoning ability, the ability to think quickly, the ability to fully comprehend, analyze, the ability to remember information, the ability to learn from experience, a lot to know, to be able to apply knowledge to practice, the intensity of quality. Stupidity: mental limitations, inability to think logically, inability to think quickly, inability to comprehend, analyze, failure to store information, inability to learn from experience, to talk nonsense, as the intensity. Thus, analyzing the data obtained during the independent association experiment we see that each of the core concepts is its dictionary definition, near and far different in the periphery intensity of theme expression and composition of each of the signs. The extreme periphery is existent concept for “wit”. Among the associative responses received English-speaking respondents features separate layer expressing concepts studied by the speed of thinking processes. This experiment makes it possible to conclude that firstly the importance of education for speakers of English is much more than the Ukrainian, as part near the periphery of both concepts. In turn, the reason for the latter is reflected in traits of character and it depends on the mental development of man, the concept of “stupidity”. Secondly, a living example or reference in the minds of Ukrainian plays a much larger role as is reflected in both concepts and quite diverse. While the media for English culture it is very limited or non-existent.
