PARADIGMATIC AND SYNTAGMATIC RELATIONS BETWEEN MEMBERS OF THE SEMANTIC FIELD

Abstract

This article analyzes the theoretical and practical aspects of paradigmatic and syntagmatic relations between members of the semantic field. The study highlights the systematic interconnection of lexical units, their semantic structure and functional properties in the speech process. Within the framework of paradigmatic relations, semantic relations such as synonymy, antonymy, hyponymy and meronymy are considered, which are interpreted as the main factor ensuring the differentiation of meaning in the language system. Syntagmatic relations are analyzed based on the possibilities of combination of words in the flow of speech, collocational properties and contextual coherence. The article takes as a methodological basis the stages of formation of the theory of the semantic field and the views of representatives of structural linguistics, in particular Ferdinand de Saussure and Jost Trier. The results of the study show that paradigmatic and syntagmatic relations are harmoniously manifested in the complex study of the semantic system.
