Abstract

The article presents an analysis of the features of the associative field of the concept «Sadoqat» (loyalty) in the linguistic consciousness of native speakers of the Tajik language. The relevance of the study is due to the increasing role of the concept under study in the formation of individual value orientations and social attitudes in conditions of increasing social instability. The work describes the structure of the associative field of the concept «Sadokat» (loyalty), identifying its basic semantic components, such as reliability, devotion, honesty, constancy. The results obtained allow us to draw conclusions about the hierarchy of value meanings associated with fidelity and their transformation in modern society. The study contributes to understanding the specifics of the representation of moral and ethical concepts in the Tajik linguistic picture of the world.
