lecture 12. typology of different layers of lexicon in english, uzbek and russian languages key points for discussion: · object and aim of lexical typology · relations of lexical typology with other branches of comparative typology · the notion of lexicon in linguistics key words: typology, linguistic diversity, specific phenomenon, genetically stable, typological classification the term ―typology‖, as is well known, has many different uses. what primarily matters for the present volume is typology understood as ―the study of linguistic patterns that are found cross-linguistically, in particular, patterns that can be discovered solely by cross-linguistic comparison‖. typology can also refer to the typological classification of languages into (structural) types on the basis of particular patterns for particular phenomena. typological research is driven by the persuasion that the variation across attested (and, further, possible) human languages is severely restricted, and aims therefore at unveiling systematicity behind the whole huge complex of …
