  • Issues in the Linguistics of Onomastics
    Journal of Lexicography and Terminology, Volume 1, Issue 2 Issues in the Linguistics of Onomastics By Vincent M. Chanda School of Humanities and Social Science University of Zambia Email: mchanda@@gmail.com Abstract Names, also called proper names or proper nouns, are very important to mankind that there is no human language without names and, for some types of names, there are written or unwritten naming conventions. The social importance of names is also the reason why onomastics, the study of names, is a multidisciplinary field. After briefly discussing the multidisciplinary nature of onomastics, the article proves the following view stated and proved by many a scholar: proper names have a grammar that includes some grammatical features of common nouns. In so doing, the article shows that, like common nouns, proper names show cross linguistic differences. To prove that names do have a grammar which in some aspects differs from the grammar of common nouns, the article often compares proper names and common nouns. Furthermore, the article uses data from several languages in addition to English. After a bief discussion of orthographic differences between proper names and common nouns, the article focuses on the morphology, both inflectional and lexical, and the syntax of proper names. Key words: Name, common noun, onomastics, multidisciplinary, naming convention, typology of names, anthroponym, inflectional morphology, lexical morphology, derivation, compounding, syntac. 67 Journal of Lexicography and Terminology, Volume 1, Issue 2 1. Introduction Onomastics or onomatology, is the study of proper names. Proper names are terms used as a means of identification of particular unique beings.

  • The Development of Polish Toponomastic Terminology
    DOI: 10.17951/ff.2019.37.1.91-103 ANNALES UNIVERSITATIS MARIAE CURIE-SKŁODOWSKA LUBLIN – POLONIA VOL.

INTRODUCTION The objective of the article is to present the Polish toponomastic terminology – terms and concepts related to the study of geographical names and their evolu- tion. The material documenting the development of toponomastic terms comes from selected studies and articles on toponymy published after World War II: the oldest monographs in the series, “Prace Onomastyczne PAU i PAN”, an article by Mieczysław Karaś being a preliminary proposal for a list of terms prepared for the needs of the Slavic glossary (1968b) and from the glossary Osnoven sistem i terminologija na slovenskata onomastika (OSiT), from onomastic textbooks of Henryk Górnowicz (1988) and Ewa Jakus-Borkowa (1987), encyclopaedia Polskie nazwy własne (1998), and selected articles from the last fifteen years of the “Onomastica” magazine. Such a selection will, hopefully, allow us to recog- nize the trends in the development of toponomastic terminology, the evolution of the concepts and meanings of certain terms and their resources. The aim is to establish an initial hierarchical and thematic arrangement of terms related to this subdiscipline. 92 URSZULA BIJAK 2.

  • LACE PRODUCTS with a COMPONENT-TOPONYM (ON the BASIS of ENGLISH LANGUAGE) I.L. Kuchesheva Introduction This Study Is Devoted To
    Lace products with a component-toponym 39 UDC 811.11-112 DOI: 10.17223/24109266/13/3 LACE PRODUCTS WITH A COMPONENT-TOPONYM (ON THE BASIS OF ENGLISH LANGUAGE) I.L. Kuchesheva Abstract. This study is devoted to the lexical and etymological analysis of toponyms in the names of lace products on the material of English language. The relevance of this study is determined by the fact that toponyms in the names of lace products are not sufficiently studied in both domestic and for- eign linguistics. The article provides definitions of such concepts as: toponym, geographical name, choronym, komonym and astyonym. The paper carried out lexical and etymological analysis and compiled a thematic classification of toponyms in the names of lace products on the material of English language. The author draws attention to the fact that the names of lace products include: needle lace, guipure lace, bobbin lace, embroidery, slotted embroidery, ribbon lace and machine lace. As a result of the lexical and etymological analysis, the author concludes that most of the lace products (needle, guipure and bobbin) of toponymic origin in English got their names in honor of the cities (asti- onyms) where they were first produced. The results of the study can be used in the preparation of single and bilingual onomastic dictionaries, in the compi- lation of courses and special courses in onomastics, toponymy. Keywords: toponym; geographical name; choronym; komonym; astyonym; lace; etymology. Introduction This study is devoted to the lexical and etymological analysis of topo- nyms in the names of lace products on the material of English language.

Choronyms not only reflect natural and social phenomena but also help with relevant management and naming work. In order to explore the historical development sequence of choronymic cultural landscape evolution, we analyze the spatial–temporal pattern evolution, spatial–temporal variation, spatial association, and semantic evolution of choronymic cultural landscapes since the Qin dynasty. We adopt the sequent snapshot model and an event-based state amendment model to establish a spatio-temporal database. That can provide decision supports and theoretical reference for the sustainable development of toponymic landscapes. Results indicate the following: (1) Spatial distribution of toponym density has been different since the Qin dynasty. The cores of toponym density spread from the middle-lower reaches of the Yellow River to Yangtze Plain, Chengdu Plain, Pearl River Delta Plain.
