Abstracts

In the article we outline some characteristics of proper names as a linguistic phenomenon, their communicative and compositional features, stylistic functions and interpretive-perceptual models. We consider our own names as linguistic universals that convey the linguistic and cultural code of a particular nation, revealing similarities or differences in representation in different languages. In addition to naming an object or person, proper names also perform the function of characterizing those objects or people. A comparative analysis of the use of proper names in presidential inaugural speeches and in proverbs presents proper names not only as separate textual elements, but also demonstrates the historical and cultural specificity of each country, embodied in its language, political and social accents, traditions passed down from generation to generation. Due to the recurrent use of texts, proper names create additional connotations and develop associative thinking of the reader or listener. Some of these proper names are elements of national identity, while others become a civilization property.
