Russian is considered to be one of the most complex andincomprehensible in the world. Often, foreigners are stupefied by the abundance of similar in meaning, but different in sounding words. Such an amount of synonyms causes difficulty in understanding what is said.
Many words in Russian are used inrelated spheres, but have a similar meaning. For example, such a concept as a skeleton. This word is of Russian origin and means the basis on which the rest of anything is based. Unfortunately, this word is considered obsolete and is gradually coming out of widespread use. To replace it come borrowed options from other languages (for example, the frame).
In this article we will consider the meaning of the word "skeleton" in various spheres and give examples of its use.
Building sphere
This concept implies a rigid frameworkbuilding, the inside, on which other elements rest. For example, the bearing structure of a building can be called the skeleton of a structure. However, the concept in question can rarely be heard in a professional environment, since the "skeleton" is a somewhat outdated word, it is of a general nature.
In addition, the term is used inthe meaning of the ruins of a mechanism or structure, with its visible part in mind. For example, the skeleton of a ship is the frame of the entire ship, on which its other parts rest.
The use of words in medicine
This term is called the skeleton of a living organism.In other words, the skeleton is the backbone, the hard part. For example, the skeletons of the skeleton of a dinosaur. This term can also be found in a similar sense in paleontology and archeology.
Other uses of the concept
The skeleton is, as you have already guessed, the basis of something. Sometimes this word is used in relation to the plan, the scheme.
Proceeding from the aforesaid, it is possible to draw a conclusion,that the skeleton is the main part, which serves as a support for the whole structure, mechanism and even animate object. It would be appropriate to use the term in question with respect to abstract concepts. For example, when talking about some public figures who make up the backbone (skeleton) of a certain organization. Or about historical events. An example: the revolution of 1917 is the basis of what is happening in modern Russia.
In conclusion, it should be noted that inappropriate use of concepts, terms, as well as borrowed foreign words does not adorn speech and complicates the process of communication.
