LANGUAGE WORLDVIEW AS AN OBJECT OF LINGUISTIC RESEARCH

This article examines the linguistic worldview as one of the key objects of modern linguistic research. The paper analyzes the main scientific approaches to defining the concept of the linguistic worldview and explores the relationship between language, thought, and culture. Special attention is paid to the role of language in the conceptualization of reality and to the reflection of national and cultural characteristics in linguistic consciousness. The study employs literature review, descriptive, comparative, and cognitive-semantic research methods. The findings indicate that the linguistic worldview is a complex system of knowledge reflecting the perception and interpretation of reality by a particular linguistic community. The results of the study may be applied in cognitive linguistics, linguoculturology, psycholinguistics, and intercultural communication studies.
