The Stylistic Features Of "Winged Phrases" In The Works Of Walter Scott

Gunay Afandiyeva

Abstract

The study of "winged expressions" enables the interdisciplinary integration of linguistics with anthropology, cultural history, sociology, psychology, philosophy, and other fields. In this context, it is essential to note that the research has an ethnolinguistic character.

In light of the above, we examine the etymology of "winged phrases" by analysing the language used in the works of Walter Scott, a renowned English writer of Scottish origin who is regarded as the "founder of the historical novel genre" at the beginning of the XIX century. "Winged expressions" that have withstood the test of time and have been handed down from generation to generation as the most valuable heirlooms have retained their communicative and expressive richness. The study of "winged expressions" in languages with different systems is of interest in creating a correct and complete picture of the development of the language and its lexical-semantic system.

The significance of translation is on the rise, parallel to the growing prevalence of foreign language study. The most challenging aspect of translation is the phraseological language. Winged expressions occupy a distinctive position among language units in translation. This is based on the fact that winged expressions are directly related to the ethnopsychology of each nation and serve as a benchmark.
