Linguocultural Features of Ornithonyms in Kazakh Songs

The article is devoted to the study of the linguocultural nature of ornithonyms (bird names) in traditional song folklore, which is an integral part of the spiritual culture of the Kazakh people. The main purpose of the scientific research is to identify the symbolic, metaphorical, and etalon functions of ornithonyms in the national worldview based on the lyrics of songs. The scientific significance of the work lies in supplementing the field of linguoculturology with new data by revealing the ethnocultural code of zoonymic vocabulary. During the research, methods of descriptive, component, contextual analysis, and linguocultural interpretation were used. As a result of the analysis, ornithonyms were classified into three semantic groups: symbols of beauty and loyalty (water birds), symbols of courage and nobility (birds of prey), and symbols of art and messengers (songbirds). The role of bird names in creating psychological parallelism and observing speech etiquette was determined. The value of the conducted research lies in the scientific proof that ornithonyms in Kazakh songs are not just biological names, but a system of stable linguoculturemes reflecting a person's inner feelings and social existence. The practical significance of the work is based on the possibility of using the obtained results in compiling ethnocultural dictionaries, teaching folklore and linguistics disciplines, as well as in studying the national mentality.
