К ПРОБЛЕМЕ ФЕМИНИТИВОВ: ОБЪЕКТИВНАЯ РЕАЛЬНОСТЬ, ЯЗЫКОВАЯ КАРТИНА МИРА И МЕТАЯЗЫКОВАЯ ОЦЕНКА

Abstract

The problem of feminine nomina agentis, or feminitives, is one of the painful areas of Slavic grammar. The formation of female nominations from male stems in various Slavic languages has varying degrees of regularity. In the Russian language, the background for this word-formation process is the presence of a large number of nouns of the “common gender”, which can name both men and women (неряха, забияка, зануда, лидер, товарищ, etc.). The peculiarities of the functioning of this group of words appear in the text when they are coordinated with verbs and adjectives. The article also analyzes the role of feminitives as a national and cultural symbol.
