Modeling a situation of smell cognition (in the German language)

The central problem of cognitive linguistics is studying peculiarities of verbalization of human knowledge, conceptual and linguistic objectification of events being of primary importance. A part of the human experience is represented in mind as structures of knowledge with complex organization and dynamic specificity: frames, scenes, propositions, event concepts, etc. The conceptual model of the event reflected in language explications is an interesting line of research connected with modeling cognitive structures with linguistic methods. It assumes a procedure of identification of relevant components associated with ontological categories including the subject, the object, cognitive activity of the subject, his instrument, the result, the place and the time, the latter being a distin-guishing feature of mental representation of events.
