20.500.12556/DKUM-97421 Konceptualizacija smrti v slovenskem in makedonskem jeziku Conceptualisation of death in the Slovenian and Macedonian languages Prispevek prinaša konceptualizacijo smrti v slovenskem in makedonskem jeziku skozi prizmo kognitivnih mehanizmov metafore in metonimije. S tem ciljem je iz dveh jezikov analizirano frazeološko gradivo, ki prinaša jezikovno podobo nenasilne smrti. Zbrano gradivo je s pomočjo konceptualne in kontrastivne analize razvrščeno po metonimiji FIZIOLOŠKI UČINKI SMRTI NAMESTO SMRTI in metaforah UMIRANJE JE SELITEV, SMRT JE DOLI, SMRT JE SPANJE, SMRT JE ŽIVO BITJE, SMRT JE UGASNJENA SVETLOBA, SMRT JE ZAKLJUČNO DEJANJE, SMRT JE IZGUBA DRAGOCENEGA PREDMETA, SMRT JE IZGUBA SNOVI in LJUDJE SO ŽIVALI, s čimer preizkušamo izhodiščno tezo članka, da so v tvorbo slovenskih in makedonskih frazemov ter njihovega pomena vključeni kognitivni mehanizmi metafore in metonimije, kar prispeva k širšemu pogledu na koncept smrti v obeh jezikih. This paper presents the conceptualisation of death in the Slovenian and Macedonian languages through the prism of the cognitive mechanisms of metaphor and metonymy. With this aim, phraseological material from the two languages is analysed, which conveys a linguistic image of non-violent death. The conceptual and comparative analysis showed that conceptual domains are involved in the formation of Slovenian and Macedonian phrasemes and their meaning. The cognitive mechanism of metaphor (often intertwined with the cognitive mechanism of metonymy) acts as an established link between the initial concrete and the target abstract domain, and the linguistic realisation of this link is the phrasemes. The analysis showed that to understand and facilitate the acceptance of the abstract concept of death, we are helped by familiar experiences from the environment, and these mappings are usually from the more concrete to the more abstract domain (death), namely: (1) the image of the human body instead of death (with dysphemistic potential), (2) migration - death (with euphemistic potential), (3) the grave as a location - death (with dysphemistic potential), (4) sleeping (the human body in a horizontal position) - death (with euphemistic potential), (5) a living being - death (with dysphemistic and euphemistic potential), (6) light out death (with euphemistic potential), (7) time - death (with euphemistic potential), (8) a valuable object - death (with euphemistic potential), (9) a substance - death (with euphemistic potential), (10) people - animals (with dysphemistic potential). Compared to dictionary and lexicon definitions of death, which define it mainly as the cessation of life and life processes, the cognitive view offers a broader perspective, addressing (1) the physiological effects of death, (2) death as migration, (3) death as movement underground, (4) death as sleep, (5) death as a living being, (6) death as darkness, (7) death as a final act, (8) death as the loss of a precious object, (9) death as the loss of substance, and (10) death of humans as the death of animals. The cognitive view of death is rooted in the human perception of death, which coincides with the anthropocentric nature of phraseology and its linguistic units based on the cognitive mechanisms of metaphor and metonymy. kontrastivna analiza konceptualna analiza frazemi kognitivno jezikoslovje slovenski jezik makedonski jezik contrastive analysis conceptual analysis idioms cognitive linguistics Slovenian language Macedonian language true false true Filološki fakultet Slovenski jezik Angleški jezik Znanstveno delo 2026-03-05 09:20:42 2026-03-05 09:20:43 2026-03-06 03:17:28 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2025 0 0 str. 343-361 št. 32 Letn. 16 2025 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 2025-11-13 2025-12-30 [811.163.6+811.163.3]'373 270533635 10.21618/fil2532343n 1986-5864 RAZ_Nikolovski_Gjoko_2025.pdf RAZ_Nikolovski_Gjoko_2025.pdf 1 83210DFED65099494B03C5871D0C5699 ff43e3576d7915ae95b8732a41355bbbe605a10232969b78932ff1838d0c14d6 b62633a2-186c-11f1-b8bb-00155d580e1a https://dk.um.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=204288 https://doi.org/10.21618/fil2532343n 1 34c911c4-186c-11f1-b8bb-00155d580e1a https://dk.um.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=204284 Filozofska fakulteta 0 0 0
