| Popis: | The paper describes the sociocultural character of place names with dendronymic components. It argues that place names,being elements of language, with dendronymic components have cultural, social and ethnological value, related to Celtic andGermanic traditions, which evolved in Anglo-Saxon times and took hold later. The article discusses cultural, social andhistorical factors of using the dendronyms oak, thorn, birch, willow, yew, elm, tree, beam in British place names. As theproduct of the development of natural environment by man, the tree was integrated into man’s social and economic relations,thus acquiring cultural and religious value in a particular ethnic and historical social group. |
