Full
text RU

Abstract

The article considers the features of world of nature forms symbolization and the features of symbols language objectification in the English-language picture of the world of East Africa peoples, taking into account both the ethno-linguistic factors of local linguo-culture and the influence of global linguo-culture on it. The research results show that the symbolic space is formed as a result of the hybridization of ethnic and English-speaking world perception.
