The Category of Culture in English Neological Space

The aim of this article is to analyze the axiological potential of the category of culture in English neological space. The object of study is the neological units of English discourse. The subject of the study is the axiological component of the analyzed units. The method of studying the material is a descriptive analysis which allows us to consider the new vocabulary of the English language from the perspective of its axiological potential. The material for this study was based on the examples taken from English neographical electronic resources for the period from 2017 to 2023 using a continuous sampling method. The choice of dictionaries was determined by the fact that these resources provide vocabulary of an informal nature reflecting the characteristics of collective word creation. It is noted that neologisms of English discourse have a semantic and an axiological potential which is a consequence of the subjective evaluative worldview. Evaluation is considered to be a strictly human category, accompanying human activity, correlated with a certain axiological worldview. The new vocabulary of the English language reflects the influence of the anthropocentric turn and is also an indicator of future socio-cultural and technological transformations.
