THE IMPACT OF DUAL LANGUAGE USE ON LINGUISTIC AWARENESS

Abstract

Modern lexicology investigates how words are organized and categorized within the lexical system of a language. This article focuses on lexical categorization and the organization of meaning, examining how speakers classify words based on conceptual, functional, and communicative principles. Rather than analyzing word structure or usage frequency, the study explores how lexical categories reflect human cognition and linguistic convention. The paper discusses meaning organization, lexical grouping, and category boundaries, emphasizing that vocabulary structure mirrors patterns of human conceptualization and social interaction
