METACONCEPTUAL DERIVATION OF SECONDARY NOMINATIVES (BASED ON ENGLISH-LANGUAGE INNOVATION)

Abstract

The article analyzes the lingvo-mental processes that correlate the phenomenon of conceptual derivation of secondary nominatives with the help of morphologycal metaconcepts. The main attention is focused on the mechanism of metaconceptual derivation, the definition of «morphologised metaconcept», the analysis of the role of morphologycal metaconcepts in the processes of conceptual derivation. It was found, that complex consolidated concepts that arose because of lexicalized concepts, as a rule, begin to be used very quickly in a more economical (short) version, that is, they form their own variants forms. Such «packaging» of voluminous communication units allows us to observe the transformation of complicated concepts into lexicalized structures. The results of the study prove that the lexicalization of a complex concept, formed because of the mental association of the components of the lexico-syntactic lingvo-mental unit, takes place on the same principle as the formation of a morphological metaconcept, based on the metacognitive model of affixation. This is due to the homogeneity of the original lingua-mental material. The processes of verbalization of concepts, formed on models of metaconceptual derivation, are illustrated in work on the material of English-language innovations. The results of the study prove that the lexicalization of a complex concept takes place on the same principle as the formation of a morphologycal metaconcept. In the course of such a transformation, the final merger of the informational content, the cluster structure of the constituent parts of the consolidated concept is proceeding. In addition, in the structure of the already formed lexical concept, new versions of its verbal explication may appear. The examples presented by us also illustrate the possibility of incorporating lexicalized concepts, formed from the complex concepts, in the process of further derivational interaction with morphological metaconcepts by affixal metacognitive models. Again, this closely follows the close interaction of the cognitive, metacognitive and verbal levels of the modern English-speaking lingvo-mental environment.
