DEFINING CONCEPTUAL DOMAIN AND DISCOURSE

DEFINING CONCEPTUAL DOMAIN AND DISCOURSE


Author:  Manerko L. A. , Sukhanova A. S.

Abstract:  The article aims to define the differences between context, discourse, cognitive context and conceptual domain. The analysis of texts from language corpora demonstrates that language units refer to different conceptual domains that function as cognitive contexts, which may not correlate with the discourse within which it finds manifestation.

Keywords:  discourse  ◆  cognitive context  ◆  conceptual domain  ◆  context
