The norms of word compatibility are violated to give serious importance. Lexical norms of speech

For the correct use of words in speech, it is not enough to know their exact meaning, it is also necessary to take into account the features of the lexical compatibility of words, that is, their ability to combine in speech with each other.

Some words in Russian have limited compatibility. For example, the word torrential is combined only with the word rain, the word brown - with the word eyes, the word bosom - with the word friend, etc.

Ex. 70. Expand the brackets. Make the correct combinations of adjectives and numerals.

One, one (moment, moment); brown, brown (eyes, suit); strong, strong (friendship, impression); heavy, heavy (backpack, punishment); true, real, authentic, natural, real (friend, person, amethyst, document, hunter).

Ex. 71. a) From verbs and nouns, make up and write down phrases. Specify the type of connection.

Play, have, raise, strengthen, inflict, win, endure, render, state, open, contribute, accept, undertake. Role, opinion, attention, damage, contribution, defeat, help, attempt, score, interest, decision, victory, value.

b) Correct the errors related to the violation of lexical compatibility.

To give serious importance, a difficult act, to present a word for a report, a deterioration in the standard of living, to raise one's horizons, to raise a toast, to take a step, to attract attention, to do an act.

More on the topic § 37. Lexical word compatibility:

  1. The structure of the meaning of the verb word in the light of the problems of linguistic consistency and language modeling
  2. SUBJECTIVE RELATIONSHIPS OF WORDS AND PHRASES. BASIC CONCEPTS
  3. 10. Syntagmatic relations in vocabulary. Lexical combination of words. The phrase as a nominative unit. Phraseologisms.

We constantly hear, for example, "take action" or "raise a toast" and do not even think about the fact that it is wrong to say so.

"It doesn't matter"

Violation of the lexical compatibility of words is a very common mistake. We constantly hear, for example, "take action" or "raise a toast" and do not even think about the fact that it is wrong to say so.

As a rule, this error is caused by the fact that we mix combinations that are similar in meaning. For example, combinations of "take action" and "take steps" result in an erroneous "take action". "Play a role" and "make a difference" - "make a difference".

It would seem that what is the problem, because we understand what is being said. However, the language has its own norms and laws that must be observed in order to remain literate people and preserve the “great mighty Russian language” for future generations. So let's remember:

Take action - take steps, take action

play a role play a role play a role

Doesn't matter - doesn't matter, doesn't matter

give support - give support

Raise a toast - make a toast, raise a glass for ...

To win the championship - to win, to win the championship

To be in the field of attention - to be in the field of view, to be in the center of attention

Rapidly creeping up / down - rapidly rising / falling

Pay the fine - pay the fine

Cheap prices - low prices

Increase output - increase output

Improve the level (for example, well-being) - increase the level (well-being)

Economic growth - growth of economic indicators

Gain Respect - Earn Respect

To show care is to show care. published

First of all, the semantics of words. If the lexical meaning of words is incompatible, then their combination is impossible, for example: walk, glass soup, lean against the wind. Although sometimes semantically incompatible words can be combined to create an artistic image: recall the famous "aluminum pickles" V. Tsoi.

At the same time, it also happens that, according to the meaning of the word, they seem to be suitable for expressing one or another meaning, but they do not form phrases: we say bow your head and kneel, but not vice versa; you can say all year round, but not round hour; happens deep night, but not deep day; possible deep autumn, but not deep winter etc.

Violation of lexical compatibility is often explained contamination - incorrect combination of elements of phrases similar in meaning. For example: give importance(from pay attention and attach importance); improve the level(from improve quality and to increase level); produce into soldiers(from promote to officers and demote to soldier).

3. Unfortunately, in an effort to make their speech expressive, many overload it with superfluous, empty words, i.e. suffer from verbosity. Thus, a phenomenon called speech redundancy.

The negative aspects of this phenomenon were very clearly shown by V.G. Kostomarov, who analyzed an excerpt from a popular pamphlet:

"Proper mechanization of our construction is a powerful and effective means and the most important basis for a sharp increase in labor productivity." The phrase seems to be correct, but, the scientist notes, “the author of the brochure did not notice that adjectives ... in his speech only clutter up the sentence ... and distract attention. Indeed, what is the message of correct mechanization? After all, everyone understands that improper mechanization will not work for the future. The assertion of our construction is inaccurate, since mechanization will increase the productivity of labor not only in the given (our) construction, but also in any other construction. Two almost equivalent definitions should not be used: powerful remedy will always be effective. A stereotyped sharp increase does little to clarify the idea, and, finally, it is simply wrong to talk about the most important foundation, because there are no important and unimportant foundations: to be a foundation means to be the main, main, most important. .

Superfluous, redundant, are definitions in phrases like correct existing mistakes, congratulate on the successes achieved, welcome invited guests, discuss the results of the elections.

The phenomena of speech redundancy include the so-called pleonasm, or partial coincidence of the meaning of the words forming the phrase. Expressions such as price list, unexpected surprise, come back, main point, anticipate etc., since they do not correspond to the lexical norm.


It is also considered a gross speech error tautology, i.e. unjustified repetition of words with the same root, words that are close in meaning, or even the same word within one sentence or a small fragment of text. Tautology makes speech clumsy, tongue-tied, dissonant. Here are just two examples of tautologies. One is from an essay by an applicant: « Independence homeland does not depend from the sex of a person (?) living on its territory.”; the other - from "business paper": « Following after point 7 followed paragraph next content, subsequently seized."

4. The value and correctness of this or that word, this or that turnover is determined only in connection with other elements of the given text. In other words, speech will correspond to lexical norms only when the principle appropriateness. Relevance is to be understood the requirement of such a selection of language means, in which speech meets the goals and conditions of communication. Traditionally distinguished contextual, stylistic relevance and personal-psychological. Let's dwell on this in more detail.

BUT. Contextual relevance determined by the speech environment. The most characteristic in this sense are 2 types of errors:

- semantic inconsistency of the used word (phrase) with the general meaning of the statement ("Pavel Vlasov devoted his life beating his wife.”; "What kind chic the funeral!"; “Our birch trees are standing in the wedding shroud.)»;

- use anachronisms, i.e. words (expressions) that do not correspond to a given historical era Cruise Chichikov on landowners (?) ends with (?) Plyushkin”; "Lisa was housekeeper in Famusov's house"; "Pechorin - fan Russian landscapes).

B. Stylistic (style) relevance- this is an account of the methods of selecting vocabulary in accordance with the functional style used - scientific, business, colloquial, etc. The problem of stylistic appropriateness can be illustrated by the well-known example of L. Uspensky:

“When two boys at school talk among themselves, only a pedant will find an unacceptable remark:

Did you grab a couple again? Oh you! Either a couple, or a stake ... You cut yourself in the exam, and they put you out of school.

But if you see ... a letter from the director to parents, which says: “Dear comrades! Since your son grabbed a pair again, and in the report card he has either a pair or a stake, he will certainly cut himself off at the exam, and I will have to put him out of school, ”you will decide that the director is at least a strange person.

The words are the same here and there, they all appear in our dictionaries, the content of what is said is the same. Everything is correct, but in one case it is customary to say so, and in the other it is not. Stylistically inappropriate." .

AT. personal-psychological relevance requires to be expressed delicately and tactfully, benevolently and respectfully. Related to this aspect are the so-called taboo words, i.e. lexical units, the use of which is prohibited for one or another non-linguistic reasons. In this case, we can talk about the ethical reasons for tabooing certain words. For example, in a conversation about an elderly person, it is tactless and inappropriate to call him an old man. In such situations, we use the so-called euphemisms, i.e. words and phrases that replace taboo: the word old man can be replaced by the expression elderly man.

5. Often the violation of lexical norms occurs as a result of the so-called "logical failures".

Speech errors of this kind occur:

a) when comparing disparate concepts. For example: « Speech heroes of Sholokhov is different from all others heroes(?)» It would be correct to write that speech some are different from speeches others;

b) when substituting concepts, for example: "Welcoming hosts fed us diverse selection(?) national dishes" Apparently the owners fed guests with a variety of dishes.

6. A. One of the important qualities of correct speech is its purity. In the last two decades, due to cardinal changes in the political and social life of the country, as well as in the scientific and technical sphere of human activity, a powerful stream of words of foreign origin has poured into our language. In this regard, when discussing the purity of speech, one cannot ignore borrowing problem.

In our opinion, this relationship should by no means be unambiguous. The fact is that borrowings can be divided into 4 groups that occupy an unequal position in the lexical system of the Russian language: 1) words that are the only names of designated concepts that have not been recognized as foreign for a long time (school, bed, bath, locksmith); 2) words that are the only names of the designated concepts, but are perceived as foreign (bureau, office, headquarters, session, monitor); 3) names that have native Russian counterparts with their own special shades of meaning (dancing - dancing , problem - question , fantasy - imagination, dispute - dispute); four) barbarisms- foreign words that have Russian counterparts that coincide with them in meaning (goalkeeper - goalkeeper, presentation - performance, exclusive - exceptional, sound producer - sound engineer, summit - meeting at the top). It seems that the “right to exist” as an organic part of the dictionary of the Russian language, of course, have borrowings belonging to the first three groups. But barbarisms are often included in speech unnecessarily. It is alarming that there have been too many of them lately. However, the Russian language, as a living and powerful organism, he himself is able to absorb and subordinate to his system the best and really necessary from borrowings recent years, and the rest, one-day, superficial - to be thrown away as unnecessary ballast. We, its speakers, are obliged to carefully treat the existing lexical norms, selectively and reasonably approach new phenomena and processes occurring in the language.

B. Another aspect of the problem of speech purity is role in speech of various kinds stamps, patterns, stereotypes. On the one hand, they are necessary and are in our memory as ready-made etiquette formulas for expressing greetings, gratitude, consent and other intentions. The stamp is quite appropriate in official business speech: in the language of documents, expressions are also generally accepted and natural, such as “due to the need for an urgent departure…”; “fight against negative phenomena…”; "for your information …"; "Please accept our sincere apologies..." etc.

However, unfortunately, even such styles and genres that require expressiveness and individuality of the author's handwriting are “stamped”. In journalism, we often meet erased, faceless turns: "convincing victory", "sharp criticism", "hot support", "bloody coup"... In literary works and school essays we read that the author will certainly "convincingly shows", "talentedly reveals" such a character "vividly portrays" such and such a hero, such and such a social phenomenon; the most frequent stereotypical definitions "bright, exciting"(image), "juicy"(language). A number of similar patterns could be continued. Such a manner of presenting thoughts cannot be considered normative: similar expressions, similar, according to D.E. Rosenthal, for "erased nickels", should have strictly limited use.

In addition, an absolute taboo for an educated person should be swearing, profanity. AT modern conditions When the notorious freedom of speech has reigned, there is not only no official ban on the use of such words and expressions, but, much worse, often there is not even the necessary self-control. That is why, undoubtedly, persons who have authority in society should not remain indifferent to the facts of outright lack of culture.

Quite characteristic on this occasion is the statement of the former chairman of the Russian television company O. Poptsov in the Vesti program on June 15, 1995, when the election campaign related to the election of deputies to the 6th State Duma was taking place. From the TV screen, profanity sounded, which the deputies used in the fight against competitors. O. Poptsov, who forbade the appearance on the screen of some fragments from television debates, commented on his bans as follows: “Swearing is, of course, elements of vocabulary, but not elements of election campaigning. We have abolished political censorship, but moral censorship, nevertheless, no doubt, will be. Censorship will deal with elements of violence, rudeness, hooliganism and outright stupidity.”

In this regard, it is necessary to mention the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, which contains special articles that provide for punishment for insult, i.e. humiliation of the honor and dignity of another person, expressed in an indecent form, as well as for slander, undermining the reputation of a person (Articles 129 and 130).

What has been said above is closely connected with the question of the purity of speech, the need to comply with the lexical norms of the Russian language. literary language.

Let's sum up result. The main quality indicators of speech, built in accordance with existing lexical norms, is:

1) its subject and conceptual accuracy;

2) correctness in terms of word compatibility;

3) conciseness (lack of redundancy);

4) relevance;

5) consistency;

Coordination of the predicate with the subject 1. With a subject, which includes the words set, series, part, majority, minority (such as the majority of students, a number of enterprises), the predicate can stand both in the singular (with inanimate) and in the plural (with animate ) number. For example: There were a number of tables in the auditorium. Most of the students passed the test. 2. With a subject expressed by a quantitative-nominal combination (such as ten years, forty people), the predicate can have both singular and plural forms. In such cases, the predicate agrees with the subject according to the rule from paragraph 1. Compare: Twenty people came to the exam. - It's been five years. 3. With a subject with a cardinal number ending in one, the predicate is put in the singular form. For example: Twenty-one students of our institute are included in the city's volleyball team. 4. With a subject that has in its composition the numeral two, three or four or the numeral ending in two, three, four (twenty-two, forty-three, sixty-four, etc.), the predicate, as a rule, is put in the form of a plural numbers. For example: There are three textbooks on the table; Thirty-two students worked in the construction team during the summer. The singular form of the predicate is acceptable in cases where the message fixes one or another fact, result, or when the message is given an impersonal character. For example: Twenty-two suits sold; Three or four students will be transferred to another class. 5. With a subject expressed by a borrowed indeclinable noun or an abbreviation, the predicate agrees in accordance with its gender (or the gender of the leading word in the abbreviation). For example: The highway passed through a deserted area; The US has a great military potential. 6. With the subject expressed by the relative pronoun who (in the function of the allied word in the subordinate clause), the predicate is usually put in the singular form. For example: Everyone who did not lose his head was against (Sergeev. Tsensky); Those who did not have time to the door rushed in a joyful panic to the windows (Makarenko).

The use of homogeneous members of a sentence A number of homogeneous members cannot include specific and generic concepts, therefore it is impossible to say: I bought fruits, oranges and cookies in the store; With homogeneous members, only identical prepositions can be omitted: they carried a tray with plates, spoons, forks; Do not combine as a homogeneous noun and infinitive (I love football and swimming).

Errors in the use of participial phrases The participial phrase should be used before or after the word being defined; You cannot use a real participle in the construction "son raised by his father". That's right: “a son raised by a father.” Participles are not used with a particle would (a speech that would cause objections).

Mistakes in the use of adverbial phrases. 1) The participle denotes an additional action to the main one that the subject performs. Therefore, the action expressed by the predicate and the action expressed by the participle must refer to the same subject. It’s impossible to say “Returning home, I was caught by rain”, since in this sentence the subject is the word rain, it performs the main action (found), the gerund returning cannot indicate an additional action to the main one, since it refers to the subject I am missing in the sentence . To correct the error, it is necessary to replace the adverbial turnover with subordinate clause and introduce an absent subject into it: when I was returning home, I was caught in the rain. 2) The adverbial turnover cannot be used in an impersonal sentence, since it does not and cannot have a subject. You can’t say: “Approaching the forest, I became cold.” It is appropriate to use a subordinate clause here: "When I approached the forest, I became cold."

Build errors complex sentences 1. Incorrect or inaccurate use of unions and allied words.

Incorrect: Yesterday a journalist interviewed a representative of the delegation who came to the meeting specifically. 3. Mixing direct speech and indirect.

The subordinate clause and the participial turnover cannot be homogeneous Wrong option: The speaker, who reported these data and turned out to be a passionate patriot of river transport, made an interesting comparison.
