Abstract

This article deals with the concept MENSCH in the modern German language. The purpose of this article: the study and description of existing representant concept MENSCH on the material of the Berlin dialect of German. Achieving this goal involves the following tasks: an overview of existing definitions of the concept as a concept, analysis of the factual material; the declaration of the main representants of this concept. The conceptual substrate of the test concept is recorded clearly in the lexicographical sources and acts as a three-pronged phenomenon: how the physical, social and spiritual essence. This article examines this concept in the Berlin dialect material of modern German language, which will be developed in the second half of the XIX century and from the city turned into an interregional. Domain MENSCH declared at 97 units, on the basis of which we have highlighted in his following concepts: character traits, occupation, physical development, age, relatives, geographical origin, proper names. The most productive are the concepts that describe the moral characteristics of a person. Consequently, his moral characteristics enable it to adapt to the world around him. It should also be noted that certain concepts bear the same time both positive and negative characteristics. Suffice clearly observed a gender perspective. Referring to the above mentioned calculations, we can say that the domain MENSCH is represented in Berlin dialect is quite diverse. However, priority is occupied concepts bearing biosocial characteristics. In accordance with this concept, we can assume that interpersonal relationships and human characteristics in the process of communication play a central role in the conceptualization MENSCH domain in the Berlin dialect. Interestingly, it seems, would be to track the availability and productivity of MENSCH domain reprezentantov in other dialects, which largely determines the prospects of this research.
