COGNITIVE-REASONED SEMANTIC NETWORK AS WAY OF CATEGORIZING TERMINOLOGICAL AND PROFESSIONAL VOCABULARY OF CONCEPTUAL SPHERE “MONEY”

Abstract

Terms and professionalisms with a semantic component of “money” serve to verbalize the qualitative, quantitative, and functional characteristics of money that are formed in the modern system of financial-economic relations and representing the structure of stereotypical events of the world of economy. The method of conceptual categorization of financial-economic terminological vocabulary with taking into account the factor of extra-linguistic knowledge allows the author not only to organize this class of lexical units into a semantic network, but also to reveal the cognitive bases of the semantic representation of the conceptual sphere “Money”.
