Prolegomena to the Analysis of the Systemic Relations of the Associative Field EYES in the Area of East Slavonic Languages

Summary/Abstract: The article explores the conceptualization of the associative field eyes in Russian, Belarusian, and Ukrainian, focusing on linguistic and cultural differences in its representation. Drawing on data from the Slavic Associative Dictionary (Славянский ассоциативный словарь: русский, белорусский, болгарский, украинский, or SAD), the study examines stimulus-response pairs to uncover unique associative networks within these East Slavic languages. The analysis identifies key semantic relationships, including synonymy, hyperonymy, and fuzzynymy, alongside syntactic accommodation patterns such as rection and congruence. These elements are categorized into paradigmatic and syntagmatic relations, providing a framework for comparative analysis. By examining these associations, the study reveals how the concept of eyes reflects broader cultural and semantic frameworks inherent to each language. Through a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods, the article highlights differences in the conceptualization of EYES, shaped by diverse linguistic traditions and cultural contexts. A visual representation of the findings further illustrates contrasts between the associative fields across the three languages, offering valuable insights into the interplay between language, thought, and culture in the East Slavic region.
