Abstract:
The attributive nature of adjectives can be fully disclosed only when their lexical semantics is studied as that of a word. Integral approach to semantics of adjectives takes away restrictions imposed by level-by-level studies. These words do not allow strict delimitation of objective meaning of such men-tal structures as knowledge, opinion, assessment.
Keywords: cognitive, interpretation, selection, profiling, observer, conceptual attribute, prototype.
