Lexical concepts (i.e. semantic units conventionally associated with linguistic forms) are viewed in the article as structures consisting of interrelated facets (i.e. conceptual slots filled with various types of information about the referent) with different structural weight. The paper suggests a way to model the graded structure of lexical concepts by assessing the weight of each constituting facet according to its relevance for defining purposes, frequency of contextual profiling and salience in derivation processes. Thus, the approach taken exploits as many linguistic points of access to the concept as possible and uses three different dimensions to range its facets. The suggested idea is verified with a case study of some common lexical concepts in English (e.g. represented by concrete nouns such as “bird”, “tree”, etc.), which reveals both the advantages and the limitations of the approach taken.

The article presents the peculiarities of language objectification of basic archaic cultural opposition “my, our own ‒ alien” by mean of Russian personal and possessive pronouns’ semantics and functioning. The purpose is to detect how the 1st and 2nd person pronouns in their non-referential usage get potentiality to form conceptual content and language representation of the concept “patriotism”. The methodology includes methods of referential and conceptual analysis. The material is the data of lexicographic sources, Russian national Corpus and the authors’ internet-monitoring. The study shows that Russian personal and possessive pronouns contribute most to language expression of culturally significant opposition of “circles ours, our own” and circle “others, aliens”, of values of “own world” and “alien world”. The findings are that the fact of conceptual contraposition of the 1st and the 2nd person pronouns is to be included in linguo-cognitive description of the concept “patriotism”.
