title: Comparative Analysis of Associative Fields Safety and Sicherheit in the Representation of Russian and German Speakers
abstract: Safety is an integral component of everyone’s life. However, this concept remains elusive to comprehensive linguistic research. The present article focuses on the concept of safety as one of the most important ideas for modern humanity. The authors believe that this research helps to cast light upon some social processes that are reflected in language. During an uncontrolled associative experiment, Russian and German respondents gave verbal reactions to words besopasnost (safety) and Sicherheit.
