The Ukrainian language cinematic term system and its conceptual organization

Abstract

The article focuses on the conceptual organization of the cinematic term system in the Ukrainian language. Core, central and peripheral constituents of the Ukrainian language cinematic term system are further described and analyzed. The authors find out that the central terms originated from the core cinematic terms are most widespread in the system. This tendency can be explained by the progress and refinement of the cinematic term system. The lexical and semantic analysis of the Ukrainian language cinematic terms allowed to distinguish 13 thematic groups formed under the influence of the extralinguistic factors, such as the emergence of new cinematic technologies, movements, and new equipment. The identified thematic groups are open and confirm a continuous development of the Ukrainian language cinematic term system.
