This study examines the roles of proper names (PNs) in phraseological constructions (PhCs), focusing on their semantic, pragmatic, and cultural dimensions. PNs serve referential, metaphorical, and symbolic functions, enriched by cultural specificity and pragmatic effects. The research highlights semantic constraints in slot-filling and explores variability in name forms. Findings emphasize PNs' unique contribution to the expressive power of PhCs, offering insights for linguistic, cultural, and pragmatic analysis.

Abstract
This study examines the roles of proper names (PNs) in phraseological constructions (PhCs), focusing on their semantic, pragmatic, and cultural dimensions. PNs serve referential, metaphorical, and symbolic functions, enriched by cultural specificity and pragmatic effects. The research highlights semantic constraints in slot-filling and explores variability in name forms. Findings emphasize PNs' unique contribution to the expressive power of PhCs, offering insights for linguistic, cultural, and pragmatic analysis.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
