GENDER COMPONENTS AT THE LEXICAL LEVEL
Abstract
The article aims to provide a comprehensive review of the gender components manifested at the lexical level within language. Investigating how language reflects and perpetuates societal gender norms and stereotypes, the annotation delves into various linguistic phenomena such as gender-specific vocabulary, grammatical gender systems, and linguistic markers of gender identity. The paper examines the ways in which languages encode gender through lexical items, including nouns, pronouns, and descriptors, and explores the implications of these linguistic choices on perceptions of gender roles and identities. Additionally, it investigates how linguistic structures may influence social cognition and behavior, contributing to the construction and reinforcement of gender hierarchies and inequalities. Through a multidisciplinary approach that integrates insights from linguistics, psychology, sociology, and gender studies, the annotation seeks to illuminate the complex interplay between language and gender, shedding light on both the overt and subtle mechanisms through which linguistic expressions reflect and shape gender ideologies.
