Abstract

This article provides a scholarly overview of the main directions and principles of word meaning analysis in linguistics. It examines lexical-semantic analysis, structural, cognitive, and pragmatic approaches, highlighting their distinctive features. The paper also emphasizes the role of polysemy, contextual realization, and cultural factors in the study of meaning. Along with modern linguistic theories, practical examples are presented to demonstrate effective methods of semantic analysis.
