Onomasioigical Approach to the Study of Lexis in the Frames of Semantic Fields at RFL Classes (On the Example of the Semantic Field «laughter»)

The article is devoted to a meaning-oriented approach to the study of Russian vocabulary at RFL classes which combines synonymous possibilities of various linguistic units of a certain semantic field (in particular, the semantic field “Laughter”), including idiomatic and free word combinations with the key lexemes of the field, their morphological changes, syntactic and semantic derivatives and phraseological units. The research gradually demonstrates the ways of presenting the main lexical material depending on studied meanings, gives the examples of their use in the National Corpus of Russian language, clarifies the features of their semantics and stylistics, provides grammatical restrictions in the studied constructions (case form, verbal control, etc.). The author demonstrates the examples of exercises to consolidate the educational material and practicing both receptive and productive speech actions.
