Structural-semantic characteristics of the terms of meteorology and landscape of the Turkish and Yakut languages (comparatively with the ancient Turkic language)

The article examines the connections between the structural and semantic correspondences of th e terms of meteorology and landscape vocabulary of the Turkish and Yakut languages in comparison with the ancient Turkic language. Lexical correspondences are divided into lexical-semantic groups: “Heavenly bodies”, “Soil, landscape”. The quantitative relationship between the Turkish and Yakut languages, as well as their representation in the ancient Turkic language, is analyzed, and a comparative analysis of the semantic stability and variability of correspondences in relation to the Turkish, Yakut and ancient Turkic languages is carried out. The semantic characteristics of lexical units are given separately according to structural types. The relevance of the article is the insufficient knowledge of the problem and connections of the Yakut language with Turkish, with which it had family ties in the early period of its development. Goal: to identify lexical parallels of the Yakut and Turkish languages, describe their structural and semantic features, determine the relationship of Yakut with Turkish. Thus, the article sets the following objectives: identifying lexical correspondences between the terms of meteorology and landscape vocabulary of the Yakut, Turkish and ancient Turkic languages; determining the stability and variability of the structural forms of Yakut lexemes in relation to Turkish and ancient Turkic forms; establishing the degree of stability and variability of the semantic-thematic meanings of the nominal stems of the terms of meteorology and landscape vocabulary of the Turkish language in relation to the Yakut forms. The methodological basis of the study was compiled by the works of domestic and foreign scientists: O. N. Böhtlingk, V. V. Radlov, S. E. Malov, A. N. Kononov, N. A. Baskakov, E. V. Sevortyan, B. A. Serebrennikov, E. R. Tenishev, G. Dörfer, E. I. Ubryatova, K. M. Musaev, A. M. Shcherbak, N. Z. Gadzhieva, V. M. Nasilov, V. M. Nadelyaev, S. Kaluzhinsky, V. I. Rassadin, I. V. Kormushin, A. V. Dybo, O. A. Mudrak, A. G. Shaikhulov, N. N. Shirobokova, G. G. Levin, and others. The main methods of work were continuous sampling method when selecting material from dictionaries and monographic works, comparative method when comparing material from different languages, descriptive-analytical method, including comparison, description and generalization, interpretation. The comparative historical method and the method of statistical analysis were partially applied.
