| Description | The primary focus of the etymologically oriented onomastics is oriented on the genesis, comparison and reconstruction of the default appellatives. The proprially-specific relationship between the onomastical object and the selection of the relevant meanings determining the motivation of the proprium are typically left untouched. In this case, we refer to the etymologically-based motivation. The linguistic concept of the onomastics strives at a complex, system- and function-oriented investigation of the origin, creation, and existence of the proprial area of a language, and at the communication aspect. It goes beyond the etymological motivation, and is extended towards a proprial motivation (or functionally-proprial motivation). The proprial naming motive is assessed from language, non-language and communicational (functional) perspectives. Similar approach is applied to other processes: the building of proper names, the desemantisation of the proprial motive, demotivation of the proper name, transonymisation. The desemantisation initiates a secondary semantic motivation. Desemantisation and demotivation are the outcome of interactions between nomination and semantic aspects of the appellative and proprial language speheres. |
