Music changes... On the secondary use of hypernymic lexemes The article examines the phenomenon of secondary nomination in terms of hypernymic words. Usually this process is occasional, although some secondary word uses have been established in language competence and are noted in the descriptive dictionaries. The author shows that this type of polysemy has a specific orientation: most often, the secondary use of a hypernym consists in expressing a positive meaning of one of the hyponyms, usually it is the meaning of a high intensity of a certain characteristic. Secondary use of hypernyms often occurs in constructions created in accordance with a definite phrase scheme, and some of such constructions belong to the phraseologisms. The author also describes the pragmatic characteristics of hypernymic polysemants, which relate to two aspects: ergonomic and communicative.
