Culture and language of ethnos: to the question of the dialectic of connection

The article is devoted to the justification of a number of postulates of a general theoretical nature, relating to language and ethnic culture. The statement about the inextricable connection between ethnic culture and language is based on the fact that there are a large number of linguistic phenomena that reflect the methods and results of human cognition, phenomena caused by the specifics of the lifestyle and individual features of the worldview. It is assumed that within the framework of this concept, the provisions on the prerequisites for the folding of the cognitive foundations of modern languages can be quite clearly formulated. It is indicated that the analysis of logically determined forms and phenomena can contribute to the identification of general principles of language categorization and taxonomy. The study of such phenomena and categories sheds light on the cognitive foundations and pragmatic factors of the functioning of any language. As a result of a detailed semantic analysis of such forms and phenomena, a deep connection between mental human activity and certain properties is easily established.
