LEXICAL FEATURES OF WORDS CHOSEN FOR RHYME AND SYMBOLISM
Abstract
This article analyzes the lexical features of words used to form rhyme and refrain (radif) in poetic texts from a linguopoetic perspective. The semantic layers, stylistic coloring, and artistic-aesthetic functions of rhyming and refrain units are examined. Special attention is paid to the role of lexical choice in enhancing poetic expressiveness and shaping imagery in verse. The findings contribute to a deeper understanding of rhyme and refrain issues in linguistics and literary studies.
