Annotation
The article considers the linguistic embodiments of radost’ / joy concept, namely the syntactic constructions that include the same-root words of the word-formation nest: radost’, radostnyi, radostno, radovat’sia / joy, joyful, joyfully, rejoice, etc. as well as the ways of representing the corresponding state. They have the richest possibilities with the noun, which, by attracting epithets and metaphors, subtly hints on such significant meanings as the intensity of state manifestation, its outward
orientation, the «quantity» of the sign, etc. Representing a high degree of state manifestation, phraseologically related models are also considered (Radosti-to / That’s joy. Vot radost tak radost / Such joy). Models containing the adjective radostnyi / joyful help to outline the reasons for rejoicing — everything that can bring joy.
We associate the difference in the meaning of synonymous models with the nature of the species-temporal meaning of various syntactic constructions. Models with different parts of speech represent the temporal meaning of a sentence in different ways. A sentence with the verb radovat’sia / to rejoice, represents a lasting state whereas the adjective glad emphasizes result. The difference can be represented as an imperfective-procedural value and a perfect value. The same opposition can be observed when comparing models with the adverb radostno / joyfully and the prepositional form s radostiu / with joy.
