Linguosemiotic and linguocultural aspects in the agriculture lexicography

the article discusses linguosemiotic and linguocultural ways of lexicographing agriculture in a new type of dictionary based on a combination of foreign language interpretation, translation into another language (the target user's language), linguistic description and ethnospecific information characterizing the corresponding linguoculture. The paper offers a dictionary description of agriculture in a lexico-semantic way and consideration of its elements in a single symbolic field; describes a multi-stage analysis of agricultural lexemes, which includes a description of its structure and its constituent elements (semantic, figurative and evaluative spheres), the creation of a hierarchical taxonomy of cognitive features. Linguistic and cultural material can be included in a dictionary entry in the format of a commentary in alphabetical order or ordered not alphabetically, but by meaning, using the ideographic method. The paper considers the lexeme land as one of the main mental entities of English linguistics.
