Представлены диалектные наименования мутовки, являющиеся частью лексико-тематической микрогруппы "Посуда и утварь" в якутском языке. Проведен сравнительно-сопоставительный, семантический анализ наименований мутовки в тюркских языках. Материалом исследования послужили диалектологические, лексикографические, этнографические источники. В якутском языке сохранились наименования мутовки, которые использовались для приготовления кумыса, других молочных продуктов (блюд) и жидкой пищи, имеющие и тюркские, и монгольские корни. Изучение диалектной лексики позволило выявить общетюркское и собственно якутское значения мутовки как части бытовой лексики якутского языка.
This paper addresses the semantics of dialectal names of mutovka (a stick with branches at the end used for mixing or stirring), with all of them belonging to the lexical-thematic microgroup “Utensils” in the Yakut language. Over 40 dialect names of mutovka with different connotations have been identified in dialectological, lexicographical, and ethnographic materials. The nomination principles of mutovka are determined on the external form and functions. The form and structure of mutovka s (round, branched, cross-shaped), material (wood, cow horn) depend on their purpose. Mutovka has different functions: for whipping koumiss, cream, or butter, and others, with the movement of the tool also of importance for nomination. The basic characteristic of any mutovka is ytyyyy “mixing, stirring, and churning.” The comparative analysis revealed that the Yakut lexemes ytyk and bhiheyeh indicate a common Turkic similarity. Most names of mutovka are part of the lexical fund of the Yakut language developed in the linguistic landscape of modern Yakuts (Sakha). Also, the dialect names bilier, biriel “kumys mutovka” have been found to have Mongolian roots. A semantic description allowed the origin of khamnatar “kumys mutovka” to be determined as an apotropaic lexeme with both all-Yakutian and dialectal meaning. The semantics of the mutovka names concerned reflects the cattle-breeding culture of Yakuts (Sakha) developed and spread in the subcontinental climate in the vast territory of the North-East of Russia. The findings specify the lexical-semantic microgroups “Tableware,” “Utensils” to “Kumys ware and utensils,” “Ytyk,” to compile the thematic lists of Yakut household culture.
