Abstract

This paper deals with the possibility of the application of componential analysis (CA) to the semantic description of a portion of the lexis of the Serbo-Croatian language. The investigation has been confined to a set of nouns denoting “physical objects” which comprises four subsets: nouns denoting humans, animals, plants and artifacts. It has been pointed out that the CA method might prove useful on condition that the analysis is based on the integrated principles underlying both the “linguistic” and “psycholinguistic” components.
