ANALYSIS OF CONCEPT LOVE FROM CONTEMPORARY LINGUISTICS POINT OF VIEW

Abstract

The article is targeted at the linguistic analysis of the concept of love, carried out in modern linguistics. The author considered three approaches to the analysis of the concept of love philosophical, linguo-cognitive, linguocultural approaches. The commonality of these three approaches is that the concept of love is viewed not only as a basic element of the personality language, but as an expression of the cultural characteristics of the people. It is concluded that the concept of love occupies a leading position among the concepts of happiness, hope, faith and goodness. Not only emotional, but also cognitive and volitional aspects are necessarily present in one love.
