In the article, the texts of Kazakh songs with ornithonyms are grouped in accordance with their use. The use of ornithonyms in the lyrics and their semantic meaning are also divided into thematic groups. The thematic group is based not only on the paradigmatic connections of ornithological names, but also on denotative ones. The linguo-cognitive semantics of the thematic group of ornithonyms and lyrics is determined. The semantics of ornithonyms in the lyrics is based not only on the similarity of the lexical meaning of words, also on the allegorical metaphorical meaning of objects and phenomena by which they are called. The semantics of ornithonyms in the lyrics reflects the cognitive characteristics of the ethnos in the perception of the world through a song. The presence of birds in the lyrics, close to the worldview of the ethnic group, is an indicator of national culture, which to a certain extent determines the ethnic identity of the ethnic group. In the spiritual world of an ethnos, ornithonyms in Kazakh poetry have long existed and are a spiritual value that remains to this day. The linguo-cognitive analysis of the language units of the lyrics reveals its significance in the Kazakh ethnic group.

The paper reflects the specificity of the fundamental ideas of the artistic world of M. G. Atamanov, which includes a wide range of literary facts from the content level of the text of the works to their poetics. A particularly important role in the works of M. G. Atamanov is played by cross-cutting themes and images that reflect the author's individual style and his idea of national-ethnic identity. The subject of the research is the book of essays “Mon - Udmurt. Maly mynym vös’?” (“I am Udmurt. Why does it hurt?”), which most vividly reflected the main spiritual and artistic searches of M. G. Atamanov, associated with his ideas about the Udmurt people. The main motives and plots of the works included in the book under consideration are accumulated around the concept of “Udmurtness”. The comprehension of “Udmurtness” is modeled in his essays through specific leit themes: native language, Udmurt people, national culture, mentality, geographic and topographic features of the Udmurt people’ places of residence, the Orthodox idea. The “Udmurt theme” is recognized and comprehended by the writer through the prism of national identity.

AbstractThis article examines the formation of Scots ethnicity from the perspective of the corporate, ethnic enclave and treats Scots migrants as boundary-crossers, members of an ethnic group that could operate independently of a state-driven agenda. Beginning with the reaction in a particular Scots network to the mid-18th-century bankruptcy of a Scots merchant and progressing to an overview of Scots enclaves from the Netherlands to Poland-Lithuania, it argues that Scots traders in the North and Baltic Sea zones depended on and in turn deferred to enclaves of their fellow countrymen in conducting their lives and careers. Moreover, because they tended to provide poor relief on the basis of ethnicity and promote non-denominational codes of behavior, northern Europe's Scots enclaves could accommodate an ethnic identity somewhat shorn of confessional division. In this regard, the piece concludes, Scots seem to have operated like other boundary-crossers such as the Sephardim of northern Europe or the Armenians of New Julfa.

On the example of the functioning of the names of peoples in the artistic texts of regional authors, the individual components of identity are analyzed and the conclusion is made that this type of language units helps the authors of works to reflect the opposition «one’s friend” in the language picture of the world of any ethnic group, as well as to express the idea of tolerant existence representatives of different cultures in a certain multinational territory.

The paper emphasizes that the processes of globali-zation, including in the field of culture, require close attention and analysis of the philosophical basis of national culture. Russian musical art of the second half of the 19th to early 20th century is a carrier of the axiological content of the cultural system. Music as a model of the Universe, as an important component of the spiritual world of the Russian people, is a specific way of seeing the world, through which they know themselves and the world as a whole. The author not only carries out a philosophical and cul-tural analysis of ideas of M.P. Mussorgsky as a rep-resentative of the Russian musical philosophical thought of the 19th century, but also shows the man-ifestations of these ideas in his works. It is conclud-ed that the composer’s worldview clearly indicates his kinship with Russian socio-philosophical thought.

The article provides a semantic-cognitive analysis of the ethnocultural components of the common Turkic zoolex-eme ат ‘horse’, as a unit of the proverbial picture of the world. The proverbial picture of the world is a fragment of the linguistic picture of the world, which is a linguoculturological and cognitive model of various thematic proverbial groups. The structure of Khakassian proverbs and sayings has phonostylistic features: the obligatory presence of rhyme, assessment of various characteristics of a person and other phenomena of everyday life, figuratively associative com-parison of any properties of a person with objects of nature, including the endowment of animals with traits of a per-son’s character. Thus, the structure of all the proverbs and sayings we analyze is different in using the method of com-parative parallelism, for example, a child and a foal, a man and a horse. In the Khakass worldview philosophy, en-shrined in paremias, ат ‘horse’ is perceived as a true friend, ally and assistant of a person, in particular a man. The proverbs and sayings emphasize the relationship between man and horse, draw a figurative parallel of the positive and negative qualities of their characters, the careful and respectful attitude of man to the horse. In the Khakass national worldview, the horse is also a symbol of prosperity, well-being, therefore, it can also appear in traditional well-wishes, in reflections on the themes of eternity, time, life and death, for example, Ат öлзе, изері халар (Mudroe, 2014, p. 6) ‘Nothing disappears without a trace (lit. if a horse dies, a saddle remains)’. This proverb implies the idea that even if a person leaves this world, his good deeds will remain. The study showed the interconnection of the language and worldview culture of the Khakass ethnic group, which takes a basis in the everyday life of a nomadic society and mani-fests itself in fixed sayings, where the acting character is one of the main symbols of the Turkic world – ат ‘horse’. As far as we know, such signs are broadcast in the proverbial picture of the world and other Turkic peoples, thereby we can note the universality of the peculiarities of updating the ат ‘horse’ concept.

This paper focuses on a multi-aspect study of the concept of “tash” (stone) in the KarachayBalkar language picture of the world. The analysis of the available factual material has shown that for Karachays and Balkars, “tash” is quite an important component of the ethnic culture and reflects one of the relevant segments of the naive national picture of the world, encoded in the Karachay-Balkar literature and works of folklore. This fact is also due to significant functional and semantic features of the “tash” lexeme in the Karachay-Balkar language. This word serves as the basis for the formation of a large number of complex words and phrases, giving rise to the corpus of nominations of objects of the surrounding reality: place names, various rocks, etc. In addition, the word under consideration is highly productive in the sphere of terminology associated primarily with the everyday realities of the Karachay-Balkar ethnic group. “Tash” and related concepts are represented in the phraseological fund of the Karachay-Balkar language and paroemias reflecting various anthropomorphic features, in particular: characteristics, properties, actions, states, etc. The concept under consideration has such cognitive characteristics as support, solidity, eternity, life, death, and others and represents the status and the character of a person. Also, the concept of “tash” is realized in the texts of Karachay-Balkar folklore, myths, and in the works of Karachay-Balkar writers and poets, confirming its relevance for the linguistic consciousness of the Karachay-Balkar ethnic group.

One of the things that are often highlighted in the world of spirituality is a matter of sexual scandal. But lately, the focus of the spiritual world is financial transparency and accountability. Financial scandals began to arise in the Church, as was the case in the Protestant Christian Church of Bukti Doa Nusa Dua Congregation in Bali. The scandal involved clergy and even some church leaders. This study aims to describe how the conflict occurred because of financial scandals in the Church. The method used in this study is the Ontic dialectic. Based on this research, the conflict in the Bukit Doa Church is a conflict caused by an internal financial scandal. The scandal resulted in fairly widespread conflict in the various lines of the organization.

Thus, the source of the problem is still attached to its original place.

The attention of modern linguistics to the study of verbal representatives of the mental essence (both individual and collective one) of the native speakers involves an appeal to all subsystems of the national language where territorial dialects take a significant part. The analysis of dialect linguistic units possessing linguistic and cultural value is considered as a necessary way for the study of people’s worldview and perception of the world, national mentality as a whole. The ability of stable phrases (phraseological units) to preserve and express a native speaker’s attitude to the world around them is the basis for the use of the analysis of folk phraseology as a way of penetration into a speaker’s spiritual world. Volumetric representation of the external and internal peculiarities of stable phrases allows the author to get their systematization in the form of phraseosemantic field consisting of different kinds singled out in phraseosemantic groups. The article deals with stable phrases of synonymic value recorded in the Dictionary of Smolensk dialects and stable phrases forming a phraseosemantic group. These phrases are analyzed taking into account the semantic structure of the key word, the characteristics of the dependent word, and the method of forming phraseological semantics. On the example of the analysis of phrases with the key word «bit’» and a synonymic series with the semantic dominant «bezdel’nichat’», the article discusses the peculiarities of phraseological nomination in Smolensk dialects and confirms a high level of connotativity and evaluation in the folk phraseology.
