This article introduces the verbs, which define cognitive processes. Cognitive activity begins with sensation and perception; there are also visual, auditory and other perceptions. The object of this study is the verbs of visual perception and its representation in the verb system of the Tatar language. In the Tatar language, there function a number of verbs, verb expressions, phraseological units that reflect various nuances of visual perception. The relevance of the topic lies in the fact that the functional-semantic, structural-derivational features of the verbs of visual perception, which make up a significant part of the lexical structure of the Tatar language, have not been studied. The study of semantic and word-formation peculiarities contributes to the most complete and comprehensive analysis of the lexical composition of the Tatar language. The conclusions made during the study are important for the construction of interpretations of the verbs of vision, for the integral description of the grammar. Students and teachers of the Tatar language can use the material presented in the classroom. The article provides all the meanings and nuances of the verbs of visual perception, which especially increases the threshold of difficulty in adequate perception and learning process of this material in the course of teaching the Tatar language as a foreign language. The results can be applied to the development of linguodidactic manuals, dictionaries and reference books for effective teaching of the Tatar language.

Emotions have a huge impact on human life. One of the fundamental factors in managing human behavior is emotion. The article is devoted to a brief review of the expression of emotion in the Tatar language. The problem of studying the linguistic picture of the world is closely connected with the problem of conceptual picture of the world that displays the specifics of man and his existence, his relationship with the world, the conditions of his existence. Language picture of the world explicits different world-view and shows the General picture of the world. Human activity, which includes the symbolic, i.e. cultural, universe as an integral part, is both universal and national-specific. These properties determine both the originality of the language picture of the world and its universality. On the basis of modern trends, new directions in linguistics are being formed taking the role of the emotions into consideration: sociolinguistics aspect of emotions, etc., The cognitive aspect of emotions, the psycholinguistic aspect of emotions, and the linguostylistic aspect of emotions. The study presents the authors’ classification of emotionally rich language units. In the article, the authors also offer their vision of the future prospects of studying the topic.

The article is devoted to a brief overview of bilingual dictionaries of Tatar language of the 21st century, in particular 2000-2017. The main objective of this study is to define the basic tendencies of development of Tatar bilingual lexicography of the new century, which develops mainly according to a traditional direction that was laid by the lexicographers of the 19th–20th centuries: published translation dictionaries for the general population and for highly specialized industries. The study provides the author's classification of printed translation dictionaries related to a selected segment of the history of Tatar lexicography.

The problems of word formation intensively studied during all periods of the development of linguistics have not lost their relevance at the present time, since word formation is the most important means of replenishing the vocabulary of the language. The vocabulary of the language is in a state of almost continuous development, reflecting the changes that happen in all areas of people’s lives and activities. The continuous process of creating new words in a language is a complex cognitive process that takes place under the influence of extralinguistic factors, nevertheless it follows the existing prototypes used by analogy in accordance with structural models. Speaking of the word formation model, we mean a certain set structure that has a generalized categorical meaning and develops a number of other hierarchically related lexical meanings, implying not only a structure, but also certain semantics. The word-formation model is at the beginning of the word-forming process, determining how the initial elements of the language build a new name. Of particular interest for research in this regard are the derived words that are formed from the stems with semantics of quantity. As is known, the names of numerals are not formed from other parts of speech, but they themselves freely participate in the word-formation of nouns, adjectives, adverbs, verbs and other parts of speech. In Tatar linguistics there are practically no special studies concerning the numerals as a nominative base of the Tatar language system. The need to study the names of numerals as an independent motivational unit of language determines the relevance of this work. The results of the research can be used to work out lecture courses in general linguistics, lexicology, morphology, word formation of the Tatar language.

The articles are devoted to the study of one of the lexico-semantic groups of verbs in the Tatar language – behavioral verbs, which mean the action and actions of a person who has received one or another social coloring: This group of verbs differs from the verbs of other lexico-semantic groups by specific features: they represent the principles of human behavior in society. The relevance of the topic lies in the fact that the Tatar language does not study the structural-word-and-phraseological features of the verbs of behavior that would contribute to a complete and comprehensive analysis of the lexical structure of the grammar. In the article, the derivational possibilities of the Tatar language verbs at the level of the word-derivative paradigm are determined. In particular, the structural specificity of this verbal vocabulary was revealed, word-derivative values of suffixes forming behavioral verbs were revealed, as well as a number of auxiliary and modifying participles were also demonstrated. The analysis of structural and word-formative possibilities of verbs of behavior allows to reveal the specificity of relations between derivational and semantic segments of verbs of this group, and will also serve as a material for the study of the semantic relationship between motivating and motivated words.
