Journal Title: Науковий вісник Херсонського державного університету. Серія «Перекладознавство та міжкультурна комунікація» - Year 2018, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
The article gives a brief diachronic analysis of the conceptual realization of the lingvocultural concept “gentleman” in Great Britain. Consideration of lexicographical primary sources, normative legal acts of the Great Britain of different periods of the country’s development allowed to trace the etymology and evolution of the content of the concept, to highlight the main trends in the dynamics of the semantics of the “gentleman” lexeme from the time of origin to the present day. It is emphasized that in Ukraine, as in the UK, this concept as borrowed, over time also underwent significant transformations in content and scope, that the lack of a clear and unambiguous interpretation of it causes very ambiguous approaches to pragmatic use in terms of phraseology.
