| Summary: | Introduction. The paper deals with two components of the hunting vocabulary, namely large wild animals, and medium-sized forest dwellers. Each component sub-defines the nominative units related to predators and herbivores are distinguished and separately considered in the paper. In the first part of the study, the composition is determined and a brief description of the relevant representatives of the local commercial fauna in the Komi Territory is given. The second part presents a diachronic hierarchy of the analyzed primordial vocabulary, compiled on the basis of the classification of proto-linguistic reconstructions. Materials and Methods. The analyzed material refers mainly to the Komi literary language. The paper considers the names of both native and foreign-language origin. The main methods used by the author in developing the research topic are descriptive, comparative-historical, synchronous-comparative and statistical. Results and Discussion. For the first time the article presents a linguistic analysis using the biological classification of two lexical subgroups belonging to one of the microsystems of the hunting vocabulary in the Komi language. It was established that the object of the study has ancient origins and the designations of primordial origin make its basis. In the composition of this variety of hunting vocabulary it presents Proto-Finno-Ugric, Proto-Finno-Permian, Proto-Permian and Proto-Komi vocabulary. A group of late formations having no genetic correspondences in other related languages appeared in the period of independent existence of the Komi-Zyryan language, after its separation from the Komi-Permian language. The foreign language component belongs to early and late borrowings. The technology of developing this topic, created by the author of the paper, can be used in the material of other related and unrelated languages. Conclusion. The formation and development of the Komi language vocabulary related to large commercially hunted animals and medium-sized wild animals has been ... |
