Journal Title: Науковий вісник Міжнародного гуманітарного університету. Серія «Філологія» - Year 2016, Vol 24, Issue 2
Abstract
The grammatical gender system is not merely a morphological system, but it has also a semantic basis which becomes obvious, particularly, in gender assignment to animate (agent) nouns, where most nouns referring to women are feminine, and those referring to men are masculine. We are planning to start with the gender paradigm in George Orwell’s discourse represented by his novel “Animal Farm” and its Ukrainian translation by Ivan Cherniatyskiy. The Source Language refers to our “–“ Gender Language classification and the Target Language Ukrainian refers to “+” Gender Language classification aimed to reveal the congruent and incongruent gender-marked nouns denoting domestic animals which form a common gender conceptual system in the speaker’s/reader’s consciousness.
