Abstract
The article discusses various classifications of basic emotions and means of expressing emotional states in oral speech. The problem of emotionality research at the interdisciplinary level is also identified. The concept of «emotion» is considered in a narrow and broader sense from different positions of scientific knowledge. The variety of definitions of the concept of "emotion" reflecting the variety of approaches to the problem of emotionality, indicates that there is currently no unambiguous interpretation of this term. The neuro-linguistic concept of emotions by E.N. Vinarskaya was chosen as the basis for a systematic view of the phenomenon of emotionality and the complex of linguistic means for its transmission.
The purpose of the study is an attempt to combine positive emotions into a certain complex to create a mechanism for studying positive emotional states.
The theoretical significance of this work lies in the development of a mechanism for the study of a group of positive emotions. In addition, the classifications of emotional states presented by different scientists according to the degree of intensity of positive emotions are analyzed and their shades/palette are given.
An important idea is that the palette of emotions at the level of oral speech is created by the intensity of "portions" of realized means related to basic emotions. The thesis is substantiated, according to which the inventory of expressive means of oral speech is significantly smaller in volume than the notation of emotions.
