- Abstract
- Simple and clear at the fi rst glance word sea on a closer examination turned out to be not so clear. Linguistic and ethno-linguistic, including folklore, data of Slavic traditions make it possible to interpret the word sea in Slavic languages and dialects in the sense of water in general, and especially – the vast expanse of water – regardless of salinity, fl owage, size and other properties of water. Moreover, the same semantics are characteristic of many, if not all, Indo-European denominations of the sea, and many words of not-Indo-European languages as well.
- Keywords
- ethnolinguistics, Slavic languages, Slavic traditional culture, concept sea, indoeuropean parallels.
