Abstract
ENG: consciousness by analyzing the language means of the actualisation of the concept, its
lexical components and non-linguistic factors that affect its meaning. The article is
based on combining general scientific methods and linguistic research methods,
particularly the method of cognitive discursive analysis, the psycholinguistic method
of associative experiment, and the method of conceptual analysis. For the
representation of the research sampling, statistical techniques are also applied. The
concept of “China” in Ukrainian people's linguistic consciousness has a high cultural
status and significant information saturation. The concept of “China” is a territorial
concept with a core word-toponym, which aims to comprehensively reflect the
national interpretation of the research subject through appeals to the geographical,
cultural, and historical realities of the country. The results of the analysis of the
concept “China” in the Ukrainian language picture of the world must be useful for
further study of actualization of this concept in the Ukrainian and English languages,
for the research of the concept in other discourses. The material of the article can be
employed at lectures on the course of cross-cultural communication and
linguoculturology. The article describes the structural organization of the concept of
“China”, represented by using informative, assessment, and associative componentsidents
verified by the Ukrainian native speakers. The comprehensive revealing of the
analyzed concept's content enables to determine the peculiarities of both the
nationwide comprehension of China and those caused by the Ukrainian mentality.
