Keywords: Linguarum silva
Summary/Abstract: The following article has been written on the basis of historical, sociolinguistic and etymological study concerning the interaction of the Slavic languages: Polish and Ukrainian. The importance of this article consists in its pioneering study of paronyms and homonyms in Ukrainian and Polish, focusing on the etymological aspect, on the basis of a comparative approach to homonymic lexical units, which, in turn, reveals the importance of ‘false friends’ in the contemporary social life. The aim of this study, then, is to showcase selected homonymic and paronymic lexical units in the etymological aspect.

- Summary/Abstract:The aim of the article is to briefly discuss the history of the Polish verb to read (czytać), i.e. trace its semantic transformations across the evolution of the Polish language, on the basis of the available dictionary data (accounting for dialectic differences). Through a comparative study of the lexicographical data, the author identifies a set of semantic elements which accompanied the use of the verb ‘to read’ across time. Those elements have been grouped together, according to their continuity of existence, to differentiate two groups: hereditary and innovative; moreover, the article identifies which of those still function in the language and which have become extinct (while providing the probable causes of such extinction). Apart from that, the article discusses certain evolutionary parallels between the Polish verb to read and selected words in other languages. This article constitutes a continuation and supplementation of an etymological study regarding the roots of the Polish words czyść and czytać (to read) in comparison with other lexemes denoting the activity of reading in other European languages.

- Summary/Abstract:The following article constitutes a study of semantics of the Polish language. The analysis presented in this study aims at describing the meaning of the Polish verb to sample/to taste (‘degustować’). The research material has been excerpted from selected dictionaries of the Polish language, both historical and contemporary. The first, theoretical section of the article presents the main assumptions of the “Meaning ←→ Text” Model. The following section, on the other hand, is devoted to a diachronic analysis of the semantic evolution of the lexeme ‘to sample’. The third and key section attempts to use the “Meaning ←→ Text” Model for the purposes of description of the selected verb. The analyses presented in this paper prove that applying such established linguistic methodologies to new research material can be beneficial and facilitates new, interesting conclusions.

- Summary/Abstract:The following article constitutes an attempt at characterizing the linguistic mechanisms characteristic off historical linguistic polemics and identifying their function in the analyzed texts. The research material is comprised of four historical academic articles (authored by Jan Łoś, Tadeusz Lehr‑ Spławiński, Zenon Klemensiewicz and Stanisław Rospond). The conducted analysis allowed to identify the most commonly used linguistic mechanisms, both when it comes to pragmatics (the sender‑receiver relationship) and stylistics (the ways in which the sender exposes their emotional disposition towards the described phenomena).

- Summary/Abstract:Culinary arts are an important part of every nation’s culture. The goal of the following article is to discuss the linguistic‑cultural view of the Slovene culinary arts from an auto‑ stereotypical point of view of the Slovene people. For the analysis, the authors used the operational categories of a Polish ethnolinguistic school, while the article is based on academic surveys. The article differentiates two thematic circles, which reconstruct the image of Slovene culinary arts: 1) the general characteristics of Slovene cuisine, 2) specific dishes, ingredients, drinks, etc. The linguistic worldview captured in the discourse on culinary identity is one of the main factors influencing the cultural identity of a given community.

- Summary/Abstract:The article constitutes a brief overview of the language of Polish ophthalmologists. The article has been divided into four parts. Part one identifies the possible distinctions within the general language of ophthalmology. It shows that the language of ophthalmologists is not only the language used by the doctors to communicate with one another, but also the language used in conversations with the patients, as well as the language of specialist literature and medical records. Part two describes the ways in which Polish ophthalmologists employ specialist terminology, pointing to the tendencies to use loanwords and create neologisms. Part three concerns the abbreviations used in the field, showcasing the influence of English (particularly with regard to abbreviations concerning modern technology and treatment). Part four attempts to provide a description of the metaphors used by ophthalmologists, pointing to their extralinguistic sources. Phrases such as ‘traces of the snail’ or ‘snowballs’ point to the possibility of utilizing the linguistic worldview in the linguistic space of ophthalmologists.
