Phraseological Units Expressing "Happiness" in the Phrase Semantic Field of "Human's Emotional State" (Based on the Materials of the Azerbaijan Language)

At the same time, it is essential to study the universal emotional state, such as happiness, with the field method and to examine the possibilities of its expression in language. The importance of this issue becomes more apparent when we approach it from an anthropocentric perspective and take into account extralinguistic factors. The article studies the effect of the state of happiness on the human body and its activity, the forms of its occurrence and identification in phraseological units, and the physiological acts it causes.

The article distinguishes the subgroups "Joy," "Admiration," and "Satisfaction" within the phraseological field of "Happiness." It defines each subgroup's central and peripheral zones and clarifies the phraseological combinations included in its composition.

Variants are also considered one way of enriching the semantic field of the phrase, and various methods of creating variation are investigated. From this point of view, contamination component variability - replacement of components with each other or quantitative change (increase or decrease) - has been specially considered.

It should also be noted that although field theory is applied to various sections of the Azerbaijani language, its application in phraseology and investigating a person's emotional state from this aspect is novel.
