COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF LEXIS WITH NO DIRECT EQUIVALENTS IN OTHER LANGUAGES (BY THE MATERIAL OF SOPHIE KINSELLA’S NOVEL "THE UNDOMESTIC GODDESS")

Polyakova Galina Mikhailovna
Moscow State Regional Institute of Socio-Humanities

Abstract. This article discusses ethnographic realia as a part of lexis with no direct equivalents in other languages (mostly related to food), which are the most striking reflector of the linguocultural singularity of the people. This study was conducted on the basis of the contemporary British writer Sophie Kinsella’s novel "The Undomestic Goddess", whose purpose was to determine how exactly the target language (Russian) reflects the national-cultural identity of the culture-specific vocabulary of the source language (English).

Key words and phrases: безэквивалентная лексика, сопоставительная лингвокультурология, этнографические реалии, бытовая лексика, лингвокультурное своеобразие народа, национально-культурная сущность, lexis with no direct equivalents in other languages, comparative cultural linguistics, ethnographic realia, domestic vocabulary, linguocultural singularity of people, national-cultural identity
