"Damnation" as a Term in Scientific Sources

Farida Arif kyzy Amrahova

Abstract

The article deals with the terminological status of "curse" as a linguistic unit. The author analyses this word's lexical and semantic significance in dictionaries and scientific sources. In the study, empirical, comparative and typological-comparative linguistics methods were used. Curses, as statements, have a solid illocutionary effect in the speech act, which is the focus of the study. The study results are of interest to researchers of speech influence and manipulation, as well as to those who conduct cognitive research in the field of linguistics.
