LEARNER’S LEXICO-PHRASEOLOGICAL THESAURUS AS A LINGUAL PATTERN OF THE KNOWLEDGE REPRESENTATION

Abstract

Aim. The research is an attempt to describe the principles of the knowledge representation in the learner’s thesaurus based on the cognitive approach. Methodology. The systematization of the empirical evidence on the research topic is carried out using the descriptive method; a cognitive modeling approach implements a concept description as an integral mental unit; inductive reasoning is used to create a learner’s thesaurus extract. Results. It has been proven, that a learner’s lexico-phraseological thesaurus as a lingual pattern of the knowledge representation is aimed at improving theoretical and practical basis research in the field of modern lexicography, in particular ideographic phraseography, and searching for new methods of linguo-cognitive and lexicographic description of lexical and phraseological units, verbalizing the concept „Communication“ through the lexico-phraseological field on the basis of the English, German and Russian languages. Research implications. The research contributes to the upgrade of the trilingual lexicographical and phraseographical theories aimed at the practical language learning according to the principle: a concept is a lexical and/or phraseological unit.
