Abstract

This article analyzes the relationships between literary and slang lexical-semantic variants of nouns. It identifies 60 types of semantic shifts, showing that the most frequent model is the transformation from “non-human” in literary language to “human” in slang. These shifts act as evaluative and paradigmatic markers distinguishing slang from standard literary word-formation processes.
