Локативні прислівники в говірках української мови: лексикографічне моделювання
Local Adverbs in the Dialects of the Ukrainian language: a Lexicographic Modeling

Summary/Abstract: The article proposes an analysis of locative adverbs; it represents the semantic opposition „top” – „bottom” and fragments of derivative clusters of the base words of the opposition верх, гора („top”) and низ, діл, спід („bottom”) (вверху, ввершку,ввершечку, вгорі, вдолі, вдолині, внизу, всподу, всподі).The purpose of the research is to analyze the peculiarities of the structure and seman-tics of locative adverbs, form a generalized semantic structure of derivatives according to the semantic subcomplexes of the basе words, identify semantically and structurally correlated derivatives, and offer a sample lexicographic modelling of derivatives. More than 2,000 micro-contexts of the function of the adverbs in dialects of Ukrainian language (above all, the southwestern dialect) were analyzed.The sources were dialect dictionaries, card indices and texts, regional linguistic atlases, ethnographic and dialectal materials starting from 19th c. (Yakiv Holovatsjkyj, Volodymyr Shukhevych, Volodymyr Hnatiuk, Antin Onyshchyk, Ivan Verchratsjkyj, Ivan Franko, et al.). In the article, I proposed a new perspective on the analysis of the derivative system in the format of an epidigmatic dialect dictionary which contains information on word-building derivativeness, motivation, and semantics of derivatives.
