A CONSTITUENT OF THE LINGUISTICS: THE SEMANTIC FIELD

Summary/Abstract: The researchers establish the fact that the concept of the” semantic field” is an important component of the linguistics. At the beginning of the appearance of the concept:” the semantic field”, the linguist Ferdinand de Saussure mentioned it, using the name of:” the associative groups of lexemes”. Ferdinand de Saussure figured the language as a system of elements between which some associative connections are going to be established. Then,” the semantic field” was elaborated on by the great linguists G. Ipsen and Jost Trier, starting with the first half of the XX th century. Afterwards, other linguists such as: Leo Weisgerber, André Jolles, N.S. Trubetzkoy talked about the concept of the” semantic field” which they called it:” the lexical field”. The modern theories concerning the concept of the” lexical field” were revealed by the linguists E. Coseriu, Horst Geckeler, G. Mounin, J. Picoche, Angela Bidu-Vrănceanu , etc.
