Abstract<\/strong>
\nThe article is devoted to the analysis of compound vocabulary in the prose works of Oksana Zabuzhko. The aim of the study is to conduct a semantic and functional analysis of compound words in the writer\u2019s artistic discourse, to clarify the methods of forming compounds, and to identify the peculiarities of their use. The material of the research includes the writer\u2019s short stories collected in the book \u201cAfter the Third Ring, Entry to the Hall is Prohibited<\/em>.\u201d
\nAs a result of the analysis, a large corpus of compound nouns was identified in the works of Oksana Zabuzhko. It was found that the most numerous groups among the compounds are adjectives and nouns, while compound adverbs and verbs occur less frequently.
\nThe semantic analysis of compound nouns has shown that the most common types in the writer\u2019s works are compounds denoting persons and abstract notions. All identified compound nouns are formed according to traditional word-formation models of the Ukrainian language. The productive means of forming compounds are stem compounding and word compounding. In Zabuzhko\u2019s prose, compound nouns often serve as an important figurative and expressive means of characterizing a person.
\nA considerable number of compound adjectives were also identified. They frequently describe a person\u2019s appearance, inner qualities, character traits, and emotional state. Compound adjectives modifying abstract nouns (names of emotions, feelings, etc.) enhance the expressive tone of the text. Many of these formations create vivid metaphorical images reflecting the psychological state of a character. Compound adjectives in Zabuzhko\u2019s works often serve as bright evaluative and expressive linguistic units.
\nOnly a small number of compound verbs were found, while compound adverbs were more numerous. By their semantics, the latter can be grouped into the following categories: manner, measure and degree, time, and place.
\nIt was established that most of the identified compound nouns and adjectives are two-component, although several examples with three roots (components) were also recorded.
\nThe analysis revealed that the majority of compounds in Zabuzhko\u2019s prose are individual and author-specific, possessing distinct stylistic coloring. They vividly demonstrate the originality of the writer\u2019s idiostyle and artistic mastery.
\nCompound nouns in Oksana Zabuzhko\u2019s prose serve as a significant means of enhancing linguistic expressiveness and testify to the richness of the author\u2019s imagery and verbal artistry.
\nKey words<\/strong>: compound word, compound noun, compound adjective, composite, word-formation, stem compounding, expressiveness.<\/p>\n
