TOPONYMIC LEXICS AND ITS CLASSIFICATION CRITERIA
Journal Title: Записки з романо-германської філології - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue
Abstract
The design of noncontradictory principles of the onomastic lexis description as well as the search for their classification criteria are the main problems of modem linguistic studies in the field. Their solution will provide the background for the development of lexicographic description of toponyms in different types of dictionaries. The linguists have developed 6 classifications of toponymic lexis for today, proposed by F. Palyacki, F. Mikloshich, S. Grabets, L. Gumetsky, C. Pospond and V. Zhuchkevich. The issue of the unified universal classification development, which will cover all the problems of toponymy, is currently considered debatable. It can be explained by the process of the toponymy formation as science. The complexity of universal classification and its formation are explained by the ambiguous attitude of various researchers towards this problem, as well as by the various goals that are being put into our research. The ideal version of the unified classification should be tripled, that is, to be interested not only for linguists, but also for geographers and historians. This article focuses on these problems and represents the author ’s scheme of the toponyms classification.
