Tislenkova, Irina A. "Overstatement in Communicative Demonstrativeness: Pragmatic and Linguistic Aspects." Current Issues in Philology and Pedagogical Linguistics, no. 3 (September 25, 2023): 29–31. http://dx.doi.org/10.29025/2079-6021-2023-3-29-41.
Full textAbstract:
Overstatement plays the leading role organizing the phenomenon of communicative demonstrativeness by highlighting and translating meaningful information about the producer of the utterance. The purpose of the study is to identify and describe the properties and means of overstatement actualization. An interdisciplinary approach and the method of psycholinguistic analysis of the communicants’ speech output are used. The material for the analysis was the statements of the participants from the 2013-2022 television interviews. It is established that at present overstatement, the property of communicative demonstrativeness, is widely used as a means of the speakers’ attractive verbal behavior, caused by the need to obtain recognition of the personality identity that the speech producer presents from other people and its consolidation in the consciousness of the recipients. It is emphasized that the semantic basis of overstatement is the expression of the worldview possessed by a manipulative linguistic personality. Demonstrative overstatement, used to highlight a significant message, may have involuntary, intentional and periodic types and perform expressive, conative, aesthetic, pragmatic, denotative and contact functions. The study shows that overstatement in communicative demonstrativeness is realized in speech strategies of bragging, dramatization, false complaint, compliment, praise, condemnation, and humiliation as a way of self-promotion, over-evaluation and double over-evaluation, consisting of the adverb «absolutely» and an adjective. The linguistic means of actualization of overstatement are revealed: hyperbole, hyperbolic form of tropes (metaphors, epithets, comparisons), phraseological units, superlative adjectives, emotionally marked verbs, semantic and grammatical superlatives conveying the maximum degree of quality, intensifiers «very», «quite», exclamation sentences, shortened quotations, modified sayings and imperative suggestions. The results obtained can be used in the course of semiotics and psycholinguistics.

Full textAbstract:
This paper presents a contrastive linguo-cognitive study of the phraseological semantic field, here viewed as a means of manifesting the corresponding fragment of the phraseological picture of the world built in consciousness and defined as a semantic unity of phraseological units which are connected with some phenomenon of thereal or imagined world and reveal the phraseological concept of this phenomenon.The paper focuses upon three main aspects of a contrastive linguo-cognitive study of the same phraseological semantic fields in different languages, highlighting their cognitive value: 1) a semantic inventory of the phraseological semantic field; 2) a phraseological representation of individual phraseological semantic groups as components of the phraseological semantic field and manifestants of separate features of the phraseological concept; and 3) a configuration of the component structure of the phraseological semantic field. The paper presents a method of contrastive linguo-cognitive study which is carried out in the three mentioned directions and allows explication on the basis of language data, as well as comparison and characterization of the contents of the different languages’ concepts and accents available in these contents. The method emphasizes the need to process language data and the importance of employing statistical procedures, both to estimate the relevance of possible interlanguage differences and to assess the possibility of their interpretation in terms of cognitive and cultural specificity. Use of the method is demonstrated through the example of a contrastive linguo-cognitive study of the Russian and English phraseological semantic field of arguing.

Full textAbstract:
The purpose of the study is to reflect the relationship between the number of information encoding tools involved in the design of infographics, and the convenience and effectiveness of perception of its content. Infographics are considered as a screen message, within which information is presented with different ways of visual coding. The variability of decoded elements and their interaction can lead to synergy and dissonance of the content components of infographics, which encourages in-depth study of the conditions for combining encoded elements into a coherent information system. The methods: analytical and logical (identification of theoretical and methodological approaches to the construction of infographics, assessment of the impact on the audience), a systematic approach (systematization of the possibilities of forming an array of data in infographics, identifying problems and prospects for using visual information in infographic design), a method of analogies (determining the impact of visual information in infographic design on the audience). Results. The structure of communicative elements and stylistic characteristics of graphic images in the infographics design form an information system that collapses with the growth of ways of encoding information. Such a system involves maintaining a clear hierarchy in the compositional arrangement of elements and the logic of visual movement between them. Unlike banners, posters and packing, infographics can contain multiple optical centres and an extended colour-coding palette. The scientific novelty is represented by the definition of the levels of interaction of communicative elements and the establishment of compositional conditions, which include: maintaining a scale-proportional hierarchy of communicative elements; the relevance of the introduction of several optical centres and a significant number of equivalent image elements, supplemented by auxiliary planes (dies) to increase the legibility and readability of text blocks; limiting the number of iso-graphemes (not more than 3) as excellent ways of stylistic and graphic reproduction of pictorial elements; usage of no more than two different fonts; avoiding intersections or direct overlapping of text on the image; maintaining realistic proportions between the graphic elements; the use of a significant number of shades of colours, provided that the predominant mass of one or two colours in the characteristics of the chromatic composition of the overall semantic solution.

Full textAbstract:
This article examines the artistic and expressive elements of M. Zhumabayev's poem “Homeland” and their translations into Russian and Turkish from both linguistic and cultural perspectives. Artistic and expressive elements are crucial for the 'embellishment' of any literary work, encapsulating the author's distinctive style. These elements, whether explicitly or implicitly meaningful, hold significant potential for impacting the reader, posing a substantial challenge for translators aiming to maintain the original's level of artistry. M. Zhumabayev's poetry is a treasured component of Kazakh literature, frequently translated into various languages worldwide. Despite this, translation quality and constructive criticism have yet to converge into systematic research. This article aims to identify the artistic and expressive means in Zhumabayev's “Homeland”, interpret their functional and cognitive roles, and conduct a comparative semantic and structural analysis of two Russian translations and two Turkish translations, highlighting differences. The research methodology is grounded in contemporary translation studies. Through this analysis, the article examines the translation methods and strategies employed in rendering the poem from Kazakh into Russian and Turkish, assesses their impact on the original work, explores the pros and cons of each approach, and considers how the translator's gender identity might influence the translation. Finally, it articulates general principles of poetic translation.

Full textAbstract:
The article deals with the formation means of the idea of the world’s iridescence or illusiveness, its stylistic and translation aspects within the textual framework of Ph.K. Dick’s novel “Ubik” and its translat- ed version in Ukrainian. The relevance of the study is defined by general scarcity of current enquiries highlighting stylistic means of moulding the idea of the world’s iridescence in science fiction as well as translation methods of delivering it from English to Ukrainian. The purpose of this scientific inquiry is to identify the stylistic devices that play a role in the delinea- tion of ways in which reality may be reduced to tatters in comparison with a coherent state of things and to pinpoint the translation techniques of rendering the related contexts from English into Ukrainian. The top- icality of the study is determined by the paucity of relevant research focusing on the kernel of the prevail- ing theme in Dick’s “Ubik”, namely illusiveness of reality, and translation techniques and transformations that help adequately deliver the significant sequences from English into Ukrainian. It is argued that the idea in question being the core of the prevailing theme in Dick’s “Ubik” is at- tained by means of incorporating several ontological planes represented by mental constructs, or reali- ties, focalised through the perceptions and personalities of different characters of the novel. Contextu- al and text interpretation analyses enabled the authors to determine and interpret those semantic domi- nants that underpin the formation of the world’s iridescence effect in the novel, namely: “alternate reali- ties”, “dream as a variant of reality”, “changes in time and space”, “changes of forms of consciousness and existence”. It has been proven these dominants’ diegetic interrelation. The idea of the world’s iridescence in the novel is brought about by the literary work’s fluctuating plot convolutions stemming from seemingly incoherent planes of different sections of the novel: a mosaic of the primary diegesis together with several hypo-diegeses comes across as a kind of an ontic hazy maze building up to an overall effect of the world’s fluidity and oscillation. The method of stylistic analysis was applied to interpret stylistic phenomena inherent in the novel in relation to their contribution to the studied idea as those were found functioning in the relevant textu- al microcontexts and enhancing the aforementioned semantic dominants. It was esti mated that expres- estimated that expres- sive means and devices of stylistic syntax constitute four fifths of the whole researched corpus of units, thus playing a major role in the formation of the idea of the world’s illusiveness (those include aposiopesis, rhetoric questions, asyndeton, and nominative sentences) while expressive means and stylistic devices of stylistic semasiology prove much less numerous, accounting for a fifth of the units analysed (presented by metaphors, epithets, similes, antitheses). Among the typical translation methods, instrumental in the rel- evant textual sequences in “Ubik”, a share of lexical and semantic transformations equals 60.2% of the re- searched sets of translation counterparts, with modulation and specification being the dominant ones and logical synonymy, calquing and lexical compensation trailing behind. Grammatical transformations com- pose nearly two fifths (39.8 %) of the researched body of units, the most efficient ones being substitution and word order change. The results of the study enabled understanding the interaction mechanism of semantics of the leit- motif of a literary work, its stylistic representation and translation solutions of its delivery from English into Ukrainian. We envisage the prospects for further research in studying linguistic aspects of cross-cultural conveying symbolic significance of recurring narrative elements.

Este artigo objetiva analisar o funcionamento do conceito discriminação positiva, à luz da Semântica Argumentativa (cf. DUCROT; CAREL, 2005; DUCROT, 1988), em enunciados relacionados à proibição de diferença salarial e critérios de admissão, para trabalhadores com e sem deficiência, presentes na Constituição de 1988. Postula-se que tal conceito a priori envolve palavras que participam de blocos semânticos distintos, discriminação, com o aspecto DISCRIMINAÇÃO PT NEGATIVA, em oposição a igualdade, IGUALDADE PT POSITIVA. Entretanto, os dados apontam que tal oposição semântica assumiu nos enunciados constitucionais uma apresentação sui generis de DISCRIMINAÇÃO NE IGUALDADE, evidenciando que, juridicamente, para se igualarem possibilidades é por vezes preciso discriminar, ainda que positivamente.PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Semântica.

 ABSTRACTThis paper analyses the function of the concept of positive discrimination, in the light of the Argumentative Semantics (cf. DUCROT; CAREL, 2005; DUCROT, 1988), in statements related to the prohibition of wage differences and acceptance criteria, to workers with and without disabilities, present in the Brazilian Constitution of 1988. This concept necessarily involves words that participate in distinct semantic blocks, discrimination, with the aspect DISCRIMINAÇÃO PT NEGATIVA (i.e., DISCRIMINATION THEREFORE NEGATIVE), as opposed to equality, IGUALDADE PT POSITIVA (i.e., EQUALITY therefore POSITIVE). However, the data indicate that such semantic opposition assumed in these statements those a unique presentation of DISCRIMINAÇÃO NE IGUALDADE (DISCRIMINATION however EQUALITY), highlighting that, legally, to equalize possibilities is sometimes necessary to discriminate, even if positively.KEYWORDS: Semantics.

Full textAbstract:
The aim of the research is to find out the formal and semantic features of abstracts to modern books on linguistics. The following tasks were performed to achieve this aim: to characterize the compositional and information structure, as well as linguistic and stylistic means of abstracts; to find out factors influencing the choice of form and content of the secondary document. Descriptive, comparative, bibliographic, bibliographic-functional methods, partly structural-typological, as well as social-communication-informational and documentary approaches were used. The scientific novelty of the research is that for the first time the texts of abstracts to scientific and popular science books on linguistics were analyzed comprehensively, in the unity of form and content. The material of the research in a specific academic field made it possible to consider the abstracts objectively, not in general, and to illustrate their features through examples. As the results of the study, it was found that abstracts to scientific publications can be marked, unmarked and mixed according to the structural and compositional features. The markers ensure coherence of the text, they organize and structure it. Unmarked abstracts inform about the publication in any form, highlighting the same information elements of the book’s content (novelty of the material, aspects of the study, its source base, results, etc.). A typical abstract to monographs on linguistics is an indicative two-paragraph text, which is organized with the help of markers and provides information about the thematic and semantic features of the specialist work of writing. The choice of the form and content of the abstract depends on the type of the primary document and on the type of the abstract by functional purpose. Abstracts to scientific publications are objective and moderate, while abstracts to popular science books are characterized by expressiveness, imagery, richness of linguistic and stylistic means.

Full textAbstract:
This paper explores the formation of the anthropomorphic image of war in German and Ukrainian, highlighting the primary associations connected with the concept "war", revealing the influence of mass media on the deeply rooted patterns of anthropomorphic metaphor and discussing semantic aspects of its translation. The data was derived from the German and Ukrainian mass media (2014-2021) and verified within the framework of the sociolinguistic experiment, word association test to investigate the conceptualisation of war by the speakers of both languages in order to show that the choice of equivalents while translating publications about war should correspond to the socio-cultural dimension of a particular speech community, maintaining the ecolinguistic balance. Fifty respondents (25 German-speaking and 25 Ukrainian-speaking) aged from 18 to 50 (and above) were questioned, forming the focus-group for the pilot survey. The semantic and contextual analysis of the media publications, the conducted survey explicated that the main conceptual metaphorical and metaphtonymical patterns forming the anthropomorphic representation of war are used to revise the main principles of intercultural relations and proclaim the new age of the posthuman ethics underlining the inconsistency of war for the human nature. It was found out that the anthropomorphic metaphor is a means of media influence awaking the ecolinguistic consciousness, changing the translator's role to that of a mediator and peacemaker. Differences in the conceptualisation of war in German and Ukrainian can provoke misunderstanding or an inevitable semantic loss while translating anthropomorphic metaphors.

A significant part of the current research in the field of Artificial Intelligence is devoted to knowledge bases. New techniques and methodologies are emerging every day for the storage, maintenance and reasoning over knowledge bases. Recently, the most common way of representing knowledge bases is by means of graph structures. More specifically, according to the Semantic Web perspective, many knowledge sources are in the form of a graph adopting the Resource Description Framework model. At the same time, graphs have also started to gain momentum as a model for databases. Graph DBMSs, such as Neo4j, adopt the Labeled Property Graph model. Many works tried to merge these two perspectives. In this paper, we will overview different proposals aimed at combining these two aspects, especially focusing on possibility for them to add reasoning capabilities. In doing this, we will show current trends, issues and possible solutions. In this context, we will describe our proposal and its novelties with respect to the current state of the art, highlighting its current status, potential, the methodology, and our prospect.

Validity is the most important quality aspect of tests and assessments, but it is not clear how validity can be evaluated. This article presents a procedure for the evaluation of validity and validation which is an extension of the argument-based approach to validation. The evaluation consists of three criteria to evaluate the interpretive argument, the validity evidence provided, and the validity argument. This procedure is illustrated with an existing assessment: the driver performance assessment. The article concludes with recommendations for the application of the procedure.

Expressive Reading Aloud on IEA-PIRLS 2006 Gabriella Agrusti This in-depth research study was aimed at investigating the effects of readaloud modification on students' performance on PIRLS 2006 reading comprehension tests, in two different forms: expressive reading and neutral reading. In Italy international comparative surveys often represent the main reference measure for student achievements in basic skills, but few experimental designs descending from secondary analyses attempt to investigate possible relationships among variables in order to translate results in suggestions for teaching practices. The present study was intended as a first step in this direction, analyzing if specific aspects of reading aloud can influence students' achievements in comprehension. Differences in means between groups were found statistically significant between expressive reading aloud administration and silent standard administration, though the strong concurrent validity of PIRLS 2006 test items allowed only a small variance in results due to experimental modification. Neutral reading aloud alone did not have significantly different effects on test results, confirming the general assumption that at this age word recognition skill is at an advanced level. More evident results were shown in items focused on the processes of interpreting and integrating ideas and information, highlighting how inferential more than retrieval processes are influenced by reading aloud, that efficiently convey the gist of the story and some of the implications in meaning of complex semantic topics, such as the identification and description of main characters' feelings.

Full textAbstract:
The Caucasus has always been of interest for Russia. Russian-Caucasian contacts are being studied in political, economic, religious and social aspects. But linguistic horizon has not got enough treatment. The Caucasian loanwords in Russian are examined as a specific semantic field – xenoglossary. The method of intentional analysis is used for its highlighting. Хenoglossary is a lexical corpus borrowed from a definite cultural area. Dictionaries of contemporary Russian language are used as a sample. All lexicon is topically divided in household, military and gastronomic spheres. Only last one has nowadays actual usage. Such situation could be explained by different ways of the Russian-Caucasian cultural contact history. The war was a form of contact with Muslim Adyghe people (Circassians). So, this can explain the borrowed military glossary from the Abkhazo-Adyghean languages into Russian. And vice versa, Georgia was annexed to the Russian Empire in peace. Borrowed Kartvelian glossary is the consequence of that fact. It is stated that the borrowing process is still in progress. The main sources of loanwords are Northwest and South Caucasian languages. It is argued that the Caucasian loanwords are being assimilated. The Caucasian loanwords reflect the objects of culture, not natural ones. The loanwords passed in Russian orally and have low usage frequency. Stylistically, these words are neutral. It indicates the fact of axiological equivalence of “Caucasian” and “Russian” cultural areas in Russian language imagination. Penetration of some Caucasian lexemes in other Slavic languages are occurred by means of Russian. Caucasian borrowings have very limited spread in West European languages. Keywords: Caucasian loanwords, Caucasian languages, xenoglossary, semantic field, language contacts

Full textAbstract:
The paper focuses on syntagms with the modal verb “can” related to the semantics expressed based on the English political discourse. The results of the survey of theoretical literature devoted to modal verbs semantics are demonstrated. The basic characteristic of modal verbs is their transitional position between meaningful and functional verbs. The ability of modal verbs to express possibility, necessity and obligation, on the one hand, and the degree of certainty, on the other, is noted. In this respect theoretical conceptualization of two types of a modal verb realization in the text of a certain functional style seems to be important. The suggested solution is to turn to two dichotomies concerning substantial and formal aspects of modal verbs: aletic and epistemic modality, and lexical and lexical-syntactic type of realization. The unit of the analysis is a modal syntagm. The parameters of modal semantics differentiation are the subject of the utterance and the means of its expression, syntactic content of the predicate, morphological categories of declaration and question, statement and negation, voice. Analysis of the verb “can” realization in the editorial media texts highlights the minor degree of lexical meaning diminuation which denotes the lack of distinct borders between two types of modal semantics. For the verb’s realization of the epistemic semantics the tendency for qualification, passive voice forms, lack of marked forms of negation, aspect and temporary correlation. In the majority of lexical-syntactic syntagms the subject denotes abstract notions, has a complicated structure and contributes to the highlighting of a modal verb; nomination of a real agent is connected with colligational restrictions. The conclusions specify (and in some cases refute) information in standard grammar manuals.

In the conditions of intensive growth of scientific and scientific-technical information, rapid changeability and updating of the system of scientific knowledge there is a need to study issues related to professional communication. Users of scientific language master its culture gradually; acquire life experience, their own knowledge, general and professional erudition of the speaker. The aim of the article is to carry out a comprehensive analysis of linguistic means and identify the features of the implementation of professional linguistic personality of a scientist, author of scientific articles on the speciality «Earth Sciences». Special attention is devoted to a brief review of theoretical provisions of domestic researchers engaged in the study of professional linguistic personality and idiostyle. Scientific novelty lies in the analysis of linguistic means characteristic of the individual style of a scientist on a new linguistic material (scientific texts on the specialty «Earth Sciences»). This approach allowed us to consider the influence of a person's professional status on the texts produced by him/her. The material for the analysis is the articles selected by the method of continuous sampling on the scientific specialty «Earth Sciences». In addition, the method used in this article was continuous sampling method, content analysis, comparative analysis. The obtained results showed that in order to build a model of professional linguistic personality of a scientist, it is necessary to conduct a comprehensive psychological and linguistic analysis of the scientist's texts at the verbal-semantic, linguistic-cognitive and pragmatic levels, highlighting the correlation and influence of ethno-cultural, socio-group and individual aspects of personality content. Despite the fact that the author of scientific articles is limited by the norms of scientific style, there are certain linguistic means that allow reflecting the author's uniqueness under the existing norms of text formation.

Full textAbstract:
Speech, as one of the primaries means of human communication, conveys not only rich semantic information but also the emotional cues of the speaker. With the rapid advancement of deep learning, speech emotion recognition technology has been increasingly integrated into various aspects of daily life, such as telecommunications, automotive systems, and psychological health monitoring, highlighting the critical importance of research in this field. In this study, we propose a parallel architecture for multimodal feature fusion in speech emotion recognition. We design and implement a speech emotion recognition system that addresses challenges such as limited feature diversity and insufficient classification accuracy. To tackle these issues in speech emotion recognition, we introduce a method that integrates multiple features. Spectrograms, capturing local and global speech features through Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), are combined with Mel-Frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCCs), which extract dynamic features correlated with context using Long Short-Term Memory networks (LSTMs). Our proposed CNN+LSTM parallel structure (CL) fuses spatial and temporal features, yielding significant improvements in accuracy compared to models relying solely on spatial or temporal features, as demonstrated through experiments on the EMO-DB and CASIA databases, with accuracy gains of 6.88% and 7.20%, respectively. Finally, we validate the practicality and efficiency of the entire speech emotion recognition system by porting it to the NVIDIA Jetson Xavier NX platform.

Full textAbstract:
Due to globalization processes in higher education, the use of English as the medium of instruction is becoming more widespread in non-English-speaking countries. Bilingual education is actively being implemented in Ukraine, where professional disciplines are taught in a foreign language, primarily English. This article emphasizes that in bilingual education, the foreign language serves not only as a goal but also as a means of comprehending specialized knowledge. Consequently, the issues related to the nuances of employing a foreign language within specific subject areas, especially when teaching professional disciplines at technical universities, are highly relevant. The article underscores that, at present, only specific aspects of the challenges associated with bilingual higher education have been identified. A comprehensive concept of bilingual professional education in Ukraine has yet to be fully developed. In particular, the methodological and technological foundations for bilingual education in professional engineering and technical disciplines remain underdeveloped. The primary objective of this work is to explore the distinctive features of the English mathematical language within the context of bilingual training for future engineers. The article also analyzes the use of mathematical symbols in acquiring relevant linguistic conventions. It highlights various linguistic aspects of mathematical English texts and conducts a comparative analysis between mathematical and general literary language, examining their shared characteristics and differences. From this perspective, the article delves into the semantic and syntactic aspects of mathematical language, its vocabulary, terminology, and the role of symbols in mathematical expressions. Particular attention is devoted to the use of variables in standard expressions. Various types of variables are identified, including terms, characteristics, and references. The article introduces the concept of “highlighting a form in mathematical language and filling this form with variables”, essentially associating structure with content. The practical application of this concept results in the creation of mathematical templates or clichés, which are utilized in bilingual mathematics education. The article provides examples of such templates and illustrates how they can be employed. Practical experience confirms the effectiveness of this approach, especially when teaching higher mathematics in English to students pursuing engineering and technical specialties. It demonstrates that students can quickly grasp the fundamentals of the English mathematical language through this method

Aestheticization of social reality is a multifaceted process that affects various areas of social space and manifests itself as a reconstruction of social relations, social practices and the knowledge. Despite the active use of the term «aestheticization» in the scientific space and in creative activity, the categorical essence of this term remains uncertain, and there is no comprehensive understanding of the essence of the process of aestheticization. In the focus of existing scientific researches in this area are particular manifestations of aestheticization: the aestheticization of politics, science, history, war, violence, death, the aestheticization of everyday life, etc. In our research, we resorted to the historical, epistemological and ontological foundations of aesthetics, which allowed us to suggest a general scientific vision of aestheticization as a macro-process of semantic reconstruction of social reality; develop its three-aspect structure, highlighting the perceptual, axiological and pragmatic aspects. The conceptual foundations of aestheticization thus formed, allowed us to further offer an understanding of the process of aestheticization of media communication that is currently essential. Its essence is to rely on sentient intelligence and smart emotions of the recipient in building the communicative process and in choosing its forms and means. In aestheticized media communication, visual-sensuous and expressively emotive elements dominate over rational ones; imagery, affect and effect are emphasized. By creating new sensually expressive and attractive mass images, media communication not only modifies the forms of sensory perception, but changes the structural archetypes of the modern «media man» and transforms social perception. This reveals the potential of aestheticization in the «fundamental ideological reconstruction» of society (T. Eagleton) through the «aesthetic modulation of the human psyche» (F. Schiller).

В статье рассмотрены социально-психологические и лингвистические аспекты анализа интеракций в рамках социально-психологических концепций общения Г. М. Андреевой, Р. Бейлза. Создание автоматических шаблонов и алгоритмов на основе искуственного интеллекта позволяет объединить результаты социально-психологической разметки общения в сетевом пространстве, однако в инструментальном плане такая работа может быть воплощена только на основе мультидисциплинарных исследований, так как требует перехода от социально-психологических феноменов к их текстовому воплощению и выделению лингвистических особенностей. Обоснована мысль о плодотворности некоторых базовых положений коммуникативной стилистики текста для проведения междисциплинарных исследований в области искусственного интеллекта. Выделены ключевые положения изучения процессов интеракций в сетевом общении, которые с опорой на лингвистическую теорию регулятивности могут в дальнейшем стать объектом компьютерного моделирования. Приведен пример социально-психологической разметки интеракций общения в рамках комментариев к политическому каналу YouTube. В качестве особого разряда регулятивных средств рассмотрены языковые, речевые и невербальные единицы. Базовые положения коммуникативной стилистики текста в синтезе с психологическими исследованиями процессов коммуникации могут оказаться плодотворными для формализации этих процессов при решении задач ИИ, в том числе в образовании. В перспективе речь идет о создании алгоритмов-шаблонов для автоматизированного анализа психологических феноменов (например, интеракции в общении в образовательном процессе, фрустрация в дискуссиях и др.). Последующая формализация таких описаний может служить созданию метода автоматического выделения в тексте наиболее значимых смысловых единиц. The article discusses socio-psychological and linguistic aspects of the analysis of interactions within the framework of socio-psychological concepts of communication by G. M. Andreeva and R. Bales. Production of automatic templates and algorithms based on artificial intelligence (AI) makes it possible to combine the results of socio-psychological markup of communication in the network space. However, in instrumental terms, such work can only be implemented on the basis of multidisciplinary research, since it requires a transition from socio-psychological phenomena to their textual implementation and defining linguistic features. The research suggests that some basic provisions of the communicative stylistics of the text may be effective for conducting interdisciplinary research in the field of artificial intelligence. Further, we highlight certain key points of studying the processes of interactions in network communication. Based on the linguistic theory of regulativity, they can later become an object of computer modeling. We also provide an example of socio-psychological markup of communicative interactions, using a political channel on YouTube. The research considers linguistic, speech and non-verbal units as a special category of regulatory means. Together with psychological studies of communication processes, the basic provisions of communicative stylistics of the text can be fruitful for formalizing such processes in solving AI problems, including in education. In the future, we can talk about creating template algorithms for automated analysis of psychological phenomena (for example, interactions in communication in the educational process, frustration during debates, etc.). Subsequent formalization of such descriptions can help to create a method for automatically highlighting the most significant semantic units in the text.

Attribution and the study of painting pose two important questions to researchers: the choice of methodology and terminology used in describing and highlighting the characteristics of a work of art. "Visual research" as an integrated approach to the problems of reception and creativity forms a system of stable principles of analysis of the monument, focused on the study of the vision and complex extraverbal aspects of the existence of the subject in the historical and cultural space. The analysis of painting involves an integrated approach based on the study of technique and material, the features of shaping and means of artistic expression, iconography and semantics, the creative method of the master and the consumer's reaction, the role in the context of everyday culture and the principles of reception in a synchronous and diachronic cut.In the 19th century, the Italian art critic Giovanni Morelli made a significant contribution to the theory and practice of painting by outstanding masters of the Renaissance. Methods based on deep knowledge in the field of human anatomy and the analysis of the artist's professional skills have influenced not only the history of art, but also the development of criminology, criminology, psychoanalytic theory and psychotherapeutic practice. This article analyzes the method of Giovanni Morelli, which is adapted not only to the needs of attribution, but is also applicable to forensic tasks requiring the analysis of human skills and habits, as well as the identification or attribution of works of art.

The article examines aspects of the inner world, mental images that arise in connection with the comprehension of the writer’s artistic world. The study analyzes the mythologeme “Earth” (“mother moist earth, motherland, native land, nature”), the fi gurative structure of which is presented in the artistic space of the novel “Life and Fate” by V. S. Grossman. Linguistic means express mythological and symbolic imagery in a work of art. The purpose of the study is to analyze the images of “one’s own”, “native” and “alien”, “non-native”, which actualize the mythologeme “Earth” in the individual Grossman’s picture of the world. Highlighting conceptual connections in the text shows the ideas of V. S. Grossman and his individual author’s picture, reveals the linguocultural meanings of the national linguistic picture of the world. In our study, the mythologeme “Earth” is considered as an individual author’s formation in the artistic world in the novel “Life and Fate” by V. S. Grossman. The mythologem “Earth” represents the author’s multidimensional understanding of the images of the earth (the image of the native land, the image of “mother moist earth”, the image of the motherland, the image of nature) as generic markers of the metaphorical imagery of the mythologem earth. In turn, they reveal the connection between Grossman’s author’s worldview and the artistic world of the work, in which the ancestral connection of generations protecting Mother Earth is actualized in multiple contexts. The topic raised is not presented in the scientifi c literature, which undoubtedly determines the novelty of the study, during which analytical, descriptive and interpretive methods were used. In the course of the study, four semantic blocks of contexts are identifi ed that express the generic taxonomy of the imagery of the mythologeme “Earth” (the image of the native land, the image of “mother moist earth”, the image of the motherland, the image of nature). The study of the imagery of the mythologeme “Earth” by identifying generic, mythological, theomorphic, ritual, ritual metaphors seems to be a scientifi cally based necessity and a prospect for further research into the individual author’s picture of the world.

The article reveals the important vector in criminological science by highlighting and studying gerontological crime as a rather autonomous criminogenic social reproduction phenomenon. The author offers the criminological analysis of gerontological crime by means of complex binary approach to its understanding in the view of semantic (critical) and traditional approaches, reveals the main trends of gerontological crime in the Republic of Belarus with regard to its level, dynamics and structure in order to forecast and prevent this type of crime.
 Introduction. Gerontological crime, or crime involving deviant behavior of older people in various spheres of human activity, is increasing in the majority of states today. This determines the relevance of its in-depth scientific criminological research in order to develop a modern, effective and comprehensive system of prevention.
 Objective. Development of the theoretical and applied aspects of criminological characteristics of gerontological crime.
 Research methodology, methods and techniques. The dialectical-materialistic method of scientific cognition, general scientific methods (analysis, synthesis, comparison etc.) as well as special methods (historical, logical, legal, sociological etc.) formed the methodological basis of the research.
 Results. The author’s definition of gerontological crime is refined, its main quantitative and qualitative indicators are analysed, trends are revealed and the main determinants are identified, making it possible to carry out preventive activities more effectively.
 Scientific novelty. The conclusions and proposals developed in the research significantly enrich the conceptual criminological apparatus, systematise and expand the scientific knowledge on gerontological crime. Fundamentally new in knowledge concerning gerontological crime is that it is examined as an object of social relations that predetermine and motivate the elderly to commit unlawful acts as a manifestation of their negative response to social needs not satisfied by the society. Practical significance. The results of the research are aimed at achieving and maintaining a maximum degree of protection of the interests of individuals, society and the state against gerontological crime and can be used to improve legislation, law enforcement activities of the various subjects of prevention of gerontological crime, which will create conditions for ensuring constitutional legality and the rule of law.

Full textAbstract:
The article aims to highlight the ideological aspect of functioning politically correct vocabulary in today’s political discourse. Realization of the set goal requires solving the following objectives: 1) to expand scholarly ideas about the interpretation of the linguistic phenomenon of political correctness as sociocultural and linguistic-behavioral ideology in political discourse; 2) based on the introduction of the concept “ideologeme”, to consider the classification of politically correct lexical units, used in political discourse. The study employs general scientific methods (analysis, generalization, systematization of scholarly literature on the issue under consideration), and special linguistic methods (method of distributional analysis, used to highlight the main semantic groups of politically correct vocabulary; elements of the component analysis, necessary to identify components of the meaning of politically correct vocabulary; method of linguostylistic analysis, used to study the functional features of politically correct vocabulary based on ideology). The study emphesizes that the phenomenon of political correctness can be considered as a set of linguistic and discursive components of the organization of the ideological life of modern society. It is able to ensure the creation of a system of values, the worldview, and in general, it involves the construction of reality. It also contributes to the dissemination and imposition of an opinion on one or another issue in society, mostly within the framework of political discourse. Political correctness deals with a situation in society where implicit rules of decency direct the ways of behavior in interactions between people of different races, genders, religions, and other potentially charged groups. It seems that political correctness in political discourse concerns all those areas where the interests of different groups of society collide on the issue of what is considered true or false, and who is considered “friend” or “stranger”. Political correctness as an ideology offers a polar view on social life, highlighting in it “good” (“right”) and “evil” (“bad”). Consequently, at the most abstract level, there are concepts that define the basic values of political correctness, as well as their “antipodes,” i.e., undesirable, unacceptable phenomena and attitudes that must be eradicated from social life (e.g., tolerant / intolerant, inclusive / exclusive). In general, it can be presented as a “good – evil” model of social life, which works and effectively serves the ideology of political correctness. Admittedly, the structure of the language of political correctness is not as homogeneous as it is commonly believed. Two broad layers of politically correct lexis that perform qualitatively different roles are considered: politically correct vocabulary, which includes the “acceptable” names of sociocultural phenomena, and politically correct ideologemes that are used to directly form a politically correct worldview. Ideologemes, as a result of the interaction of language and ideology, represent the optimal means for establishing the dominant worldview in the country, influence the transformation of the addressee’s already existing political worldview, explicitly or implicitly represent the basic ideological and value attitudes of a society. If politically correct vocabulary itself is an example of the “acceptable” language concerning different matters of life, then the ideologemes of political correctness set standards for assessing heterogeneous sociocultural phenomena. In turn, the attitudes and principles embedded in the ideologemes are implemented in the creation of politically correct vocabulary. Thus, ideologemes form the core of the linguistic representation of the ideology of political correctness. Their most common word-formation models involve exploiting the suffix -ism, the -free and -phobia components, the words “bias” and “sensitivity”. It can be argued that the ideologeme is a characteristic element of the global political context, since it is a kind of reference to a particular era, its meaning is detached from the direct meanings of the lexical units that make it up. An adequate understanding of the ideologeme is possible only in the context of the corresponding ideology and the context of a certain period of history.

Full textAbstract:
Introduction. Concerto for oboe and orchestra in the music of modern time (20th – early 21st centuries), on the one hand, is based on the traditions of past eras, on the other hand, it contains a number of new stylistic trends, among which the leading trend is the pluralism of composer’s decisions. Despite this, the works created during this period by the composers of different national schools can be divided into three groups – academic, experimental, and pastoral. The article gives the review of them. Objective. The main objective of the article is to identify the features of genre stylistics in oboe concertos by composers of the 20th – early 21st centuries. Methods. In order to realize this objective, the elements of a number of general scientific and special musicological research methods have been used – historical-and-genetic, deductive, comparative, organological, stylistic, genre and performing analysis. Results and Discussion. The article discusses and systematizes the features of the genre stylistics of modern time oboe concertos. Based on the analysis of the historical-and-stylistic context, the correlation of traditions and innovations in the oboe-concerto genre, as well as the nature of the relationship between concerto and chamber manners as its common features are revealed. The classification of oboe concertos of the specified period by three genre-and-style groups – academic, experimental, and pastoral, is proposed. The main development trends in each of these groups are analyzed, taking into account the genre, national and individual-author’s stylistics (more than 70 pieces are involved). For the first time, the generalizations are proposed regarding the oboe expressiveness and techniques, generally gravitating towards universalism as a style dominant in the concerto genre. It is noted that, in spite of this main trend, the oboe in the concertos by modern time masters retains its fundamental organological semantics – the aesthetics and poetics of pastoral mode. The music of modern time, the count of which starts from the last decade of the 19th century and to present, comes, on the one hand, as a unique encyclopedia of the previous genres and styles, and on the other hand, as a unique multicomponent artistic phenomenon of hypertext meaning. The first is embodied in the concept of the style pluralism which means the priority of the person’s (composer’s and performer’s) component in aesthetics and poetics of a musical work. The second involves an aspect of polystylistics that is understood in two meanings: 1) aesthetic, when different stylistic tendencies are represented in a particular artistic style; 2) purely “technological”, which is understood as the technique of composing, when different intonation patterns in the form of style quotations and allusions (according to Alfred Schnittke) constitute the compositional basis of the same work. It is noted that the oboe concertos of the modern time masters revive the traditions of solo music-making, which were partially lost in the second half of the 19th century. At the new stage of evolution, since the early 20th century (1910s), the concerto oboe combines solo virtuosity with chamber manner, which is realized in a special way by the authors of different styles. Most of them (especially in the period up to the 1970s–1980s of the previous century) adhere to the academic model which is characterized by a three-part composition with a tempo ratio “fast – slow – fast” with typical structures of each of the parts – sonata in the first, complex three-part in the second, rondo-sonata in the third, as well as traditional, previously tried and used means of articulation and stroke set (concertos by W. Alvin, J. Horovitz – Great Britain; E. T. Zwillich, Ch. Rouse – USA; O. Respighi – Italy; Lars-Erik Larrson – Switzerland, etc.). The signs of the oboe concertos of the experimental group are the freedom of structure both in the overall composition and at the level of individual parts or sections, the use of non-traditional methods of playing (J. Widmann, D. Bortz – Germany; C. Frances-Hoad, P. Patterson – England; E. Carter – USA; J. MacMillan – Scotland; O. Navarro – Spain; N. Westlake – Australia). The group of pastoral concertos is based on highlighting the key semantics of oboe sound image. This group includes concertos of two types – non-programmatic (G. Jacob, R. Vaughan Williams, M. Arnold – Great Britain; О. T. Raihala – Finland; M. Berkeley, Е. Carter – USA and other authors); programmatic of two types – with literary names (L’horloge de flore J. Françaix – France; Helios, Two’s Company T. Musgrave; Angel of Mons J. Bingham – Great Britain); based on the themes of the world classics or folklore (two concertos by J. Barbirolli – Great Britain – on the themes of G. Pergolesi and A. Corelli; Concerto by B. Martinu – Czechia – on the themes from Petrushka by I. Stravinsky, etc.). This group of concertos also includes the genre derivatives, such as suite (L’horloge de flore J. Françaix); fantasy (Concerto fantasy for oboe, English horn and orchestra by V. Gorbulskis); virtuoso piece (Pascaglia concertante S. Veress); concertino (Concertino by N. Scalcottas, R. Kram, A. Jacques); genre “hybrids” (Symphony-Concerto by J. Ibert; Symphony-Concerto by T. Smirnova; Chuvash Symphony-Concerto by T. Alekseyeva; Concerto-Romance by Zh. Matallidi; Concerto-Poem for English horn, oboe and orchestra by G. Raman). Conclusions. Thus, the oboe concerto in the works by modern time composers appears as a complex genre-and-intonation fusion of traditions and innovations, in which prevail the individual-author’s approaches to reproducing the specificity of the genre. At the same time, through the general tendency of stylistic pluralism, several lines-trends emerge, defined in this article as academic, experimental, and pastoral, and each of them can be considered in more detail in the framework of individual studies.

The theme of promise is analysed in its relation to various areas of philosophical studies: the problem of the subject’s identity, the problem of society as a system of interpersonal interactions, the problem of performative utterances and etc. The methodological basis includes primarily the speech act theory developed by J. Austin and J. Searle’s speech-act theory, genetically related to it. Interpretation of promise in its ontological aspect is considered mainly by comparing the views of F. Nietzsche, J. Derrida and P. Ricoeur.

In the present work the research of the problem of actual division of the scientific text and its role in English is carried out, the question of lexical subject and lexical predicate is considered. The paper discusses several means of expressing the actual division such as semantic highlighting of the subject, constructions with introducing “there” and “it”, using direct objects to the subject at the beginning of the sentence, semantic highlighting the adverbial modifiers in the sentence, inverting the final rheme to the beginning of the sentence, expressing the theme and the rheme in infinitive constructions, in the interrogative sentences and in the sentences lacking a finite verb. The work concludes that the most common means of expressing the actual division of the English sentence is a logical stress.

Statement of the problem. The piano heritage of René Eespere, despite its uniqueness, has been neglected by researchers. Nowadays, there is no evidence that the Estonian master’s works have ever been mentioned in the national musicological literature. The Piano Concerto was composed on the initiative of the Estonian pianist Tarmo Eespere, the composer’s brother. In its first version, the work was performed only once. Thus, the composer’s piano music, in particular the Piano Concerto, as well as Tarmo Eespere’s interpretations, require detail research and comprehensive coverage by musicologists. The context of creative communication between the two Estonian musicians is of particular interest. Recent research and publications. The article relies on the works of foreign authors who highlight the piano work of Estonian composers in the context of general trends in the development of Estonian musical culture – H. Olt (Olt, 1980), J. Tall (1983); press materials – E.Arujärv (2013), interview– E.Colucci (2012), as well as private correspondence of the author of the article with the composer and the first performer of the concert. The theoretical basis of the article includes the works of Ukrainian musicologists dedicated to the genre of the concerto – V. Rakochy (2021), the analysis of interpretations of musical works – V. Moskalenko (2013); the compositional techniques of the second half of the 20th century – D. Malyi (2021), K. Onyshchenko (2019), and also the articles by Ukrainian scholars – T. Verkina and others (2020), I. Ivanova and others (2020), L. Serhaniuk and others (2021), which are aimed at highlighting the performance issues and typology of composer styles. Objectives, methods, and novelty of the research. The purpose of the study is to establish the role of the creative interaction of the Eespere brothers through the identification of the basic semantic features of René Eespere’s Piano Concerto and their representation in the performance version by Tarmo Eespere. The genre-stylistic, functional-structural, and interpretative methods of analysis are used in the study. The article discusses aspects that contribute to the understanding and implementation of the content of the Piano Concerto. The author’s and performer’s concepts of the work are revealed. For the first time, not only in Ukrainian musicology, but also in the world one, René Eespere’s Piano Concerto became the focus of attention. Research results and conclusion. The article analyses the principles of the Piano Concerto dramaturgy, the complex of its expressive means, and the interpretative peculiarities of the concerto genre. Brief description of the content and musicological analysis of the work is given. The interpretation of this Concerto by Tarmo Eespere is characterized. The conclusions emphasize that René Eespere created an original, in terms of content and intonation, work based on European classical canons, where the national is embodied primarily through the world perception, intonation, and rhythm. In the second version of the Concerto, the composer achieved a classical balance between the solo and orchestra parts. The prospect of further study of the topic is identification of the composer and performance concepts of other René Eespere’s piano works.

The paper examines the synonymous pair of the univerb ‘медиа’ (‘media’) and generating word-combination ‘средства массовой информации’ (‘means of mass information’). As a result of semantic condensation, the components ‘information’ and ‘masses’ lose their original semantics, and the ‘intermediary’ component acts as the dominant one.

The topicality of the research is due to the need for a comprehensive disclosure of textual cohesive mechanisms in the organization of English multimodal literary fairy tales. The purpose of the research is to manifest and characterize the structural and semantic aspects of cohesion in English multimodal literary fairy tales. The objective of the research is to establish the dominant structural and semantic aspects of contaminated cohesion in the semantic space of sentences in English multimodal literary fairy tales written by Philip Ardagh. The results of the research: the structural and semantic aspects of contaminated cohesion are identified by means of detailed analysis concerning sentences, conjunction, substitution and ellipsis in the semantic space of the text in English multimodal literary fairy tales including micro inclusions (36%), meso inclusions (46%) and macro inclusions (18%). The conclusions of the research: in the text of English multimodal literary fairy tales the structural aspect of contaminated cohesion is based on the actualized meaning of sentences, conjunction, substitution and ellipsis owing to the correlation between verbal component and nonverbal component; the semantic aspect of contaminated cohesion concerns the visualization of verbal meaning in sentences, conjunction, substitution and ellipsis.

The experimental evidence on the interrelation between episodic memory and semantic memory is inconclusive. Are they independent systems, different aspects of a single system, or separate but strongly interacting systems? Here, we propose a computational role for the interaction between the semantic and episodic systems that might help resolve this debate. We hypothesize that episodic memories are represented as sequences of activation patterns. These patterns are the output of a semantic representational network that compresses the high-dimensional sensory input. We show quantitatively that the accuracy of episodic memory crucially depends on the quality of the semantic representation. We compare two types of semantic representations: appropriate representations, which means that the representation is used to store input sequences that are of the same type as those that it was trained on, and inappropriate representations, which means that stored inputs differ from the training data. Retrieval accuracy is higher for appropriate representations because the encoded sequences are less divergent than those encoded with inappropriate representations. Consistent with our model prediction, we found that human subjects remember some aspects of episodes significantly more accurately if they had previously been familiarized with the objects occurring in the episode, as compared to episodes involving unfamiliar objects. We thus conclude that the interaction with the semantic system plays an important role for episodic memory.

The study focuses on the most productive patterns of semantic derivation, namely metaphorical and metonymic transfer, exemplified by contemporary Russian media texts. The metaphorical and metonymic patterns outlined in the study are based on the principle of anthropocentrism, which is realized in two interrelated directions highlighting the cognitive nature of semantic relations: 1) person → surrounding world (external personalization); 2) surrounding world → person (description in view of the extralinguistic reality). Specific micro patterns are based on the concrete → abstract macro pattern. It can be argued that semantic derivation functions as a means of linguistic ex-pression of ideas about intangible entities, thus creating the respective images in the mind of the addressee. The results of the study are of relevance to lexical semantics, cognitive linguistics, media linguistics, etc. Keywords: semantic derivation, metaphor, metonymy, Russian, media texts, anthropocentrism

Full textAbstract:
Background. The article delves into the short story collection Doskonala próżnia (“A Perfect Vacuum”) by Stanisław Lem, a Polish science fiction writer, literary critic, and philosopher. This collection presents reviews of non-existent texts by non-existent authors. The study’s primary goal is to dissect the linguistic (semantic and pragmatic) means used to create the formal and content-related elements of texts that supposedly exist within the “body” of the reviews. A secondary objective is to identify the semantic and pragmatic means of modelling the images of the authors of the non-existent texts. Methods. The methods employed include descriptive analysis, elements of transformational methodology from structuralism, communicativepragmatic text and discourse analysis, and linguistic-narratological techniques for analysing storytelling. Understanding these linguistic and pragmatic means is crucial as it provides insights into the complex process of creating non-existent texts and the role of language in shaping our perception of these texts. Results. It was found that the linguistic representation of the formal and content-related aspects of non-existent texts (despite their synthetic nature) concerns the means of (1) deixis of forms that appear as if from officially published texts, (2) plot-content deixis, (3) the reproduction of the content parts of non-existent texts: (a) semantic, (b) semantic-pragmatic, (c) communicative-pragmatic (or simply pragmatic, as these occur in the communication between “the author” and a potential “reader”). The texts of the short stories reveal both the persona of the “reviewer” of non-existent works and the true persona of the author (S. Lem), who, although rarely, still “reveals” his presence. Conclusions. Future research could focus on the communicativepragmatic aspects of creating such paratexts, particularly concerning (a) the correlation between the modal and modulated aspects of the “reviewers” and “authors” as personas, (b) the perspectives of the “reviewers” and “authors”, (c) the empathy and direction of focus in the “reviewers” and “authors” (d) the evaluations of the “reviewers” and “authors” regarding the text’s history and its discursive realisation, (e) dialogues between the “reviewers”, “authors”, and readers, and (f) the pragmatic aspects of organising the speech acts and speech genres of the short stories in the collection. The tonal aspects of the “reviews” and non-existent texts and the linguistic means of expressing the unique humour of the great Polish writer and thinker S. Lem are also essential to consider.

In the article describes the influence of syntactic organization of speech utterances on peculiarities of actualization and reproduction of their subject-semantic content (meanings). There has been tested the hypotheses that the semantic content of subjects, predicates, and objects is reproduced more efficiently: 1) when attributes are used in the composition of statements with nouns (subjects and objects), and with verbs (predicates) – adverbial modifiers; 2) when there is a deliberate focus on highlighting the semantic content of nouns or verbs in the composition of statements. The methods of varying lexical and syntactic means in the text composition presented to respondents were used as independent variables. The language means respondents used to manifest fragments of semantic content were analyzed as dependent variables. The study involved 90 respondents (72 men, 18 women) aged 25-40. While the first hypothesis has been confirmed, the second still requires additional research. The results obtained indicate that in updating and reproducing the subject-semantic content of speech utterances it is the attribution of signs and properties to objects and processes that is of great importance.The experimental organization scheme used in the study reveals a wide range of patterns that can serve to confirm / refute various hypotheses and theoretical models in psycholinguistics.

Problems associated with the improve ment of information retrieval for open environment are considered and the need for it’s semantization is grounded. Thecurrent state and prospects of development of semantic search engines that are focused on the Web information resources processing are analysed, the criteria for the classification of such systems are reviewed. In this analysis the significant attention is paid to the semantic search use of ontologies that contain knowledge about the subject area and the search users. The sources of ontological knowledge and methods of their processing for the improvement of the search procedures are considered. Examples of semantic search systems that use structured query languages (eg, SPARQL), lists of keywords and queries in natural language are proposed. Such criteria for the classification of semantic search engines like architecture, coupling, transparency, user context, modification requests, ontology structure, etc. are considered. Different ways of support of semantic and otology based modification of user queries that improve the completeness and accuracy of the search are analyzed. On base of analysis of the properties of existing semantic search engines in terms of these criteria, the areas for further improvement of these systems are selected: the development of metasearch systems, semantic modification of user requests, the determination of an user-acceptable transparency level of the search procedures, flexibility of domain knowledge management tools, increasing productivity and scalability. In addition, the development of means of semantic Web search needs in use of some external knowledge base which contains knowledge about the domain of user information needs, and in providing the users with the ability to independent selection of knowledge that is used in the search process. There is necessary to take into account the history of user interaction with the retrieval system and the search context for personalization of the query results and their ordering in accordance with the user information needs. All these aspects were taken into account in the design and implementation of semantic search engine "MAIPS" that is based on an ontological model of users and resources cooperation into the Web.

Full textAbstract:
Consideration of the aphorism of the famous thinker in terms of syntactic construction of the expressed thought and creation of various stylistic techniques in this plane to enhance it is relevant. The purpose of the proposed research is to establish the stylistic and syntactic features of H. Skovoroda's winged expressions that reflect the individual features of his philosophical and poetic linguistic thinking. The conciseness and, at the same time, the depth of Hryhorii Skovoroda's thinking are demonstrated by aphorisms represented by simple sentences, often complicated by various syntactic elements that concretize the thought, concentrating it around one grammatical center. The imperative mood of the main members of a one-part sentence with the semantics of thinking enhances the impact of the aphorism on the recipient. Aphorisms with the desirable modality are an expressive communicative type. Among the complex constructions, complex subordinate clauses, mostly of minimal structure, prevail. Certain instructions and conclusions expressed in aphorisms of this structure are often accompanied by an indication of a condition or time. Pronominal-relative sentences with the objective meaning of correlates have a powerful potential in expressing philosophical maxims. Comparison, as one of the most significant cognitive tools in the aphorisms of H. Skovoroda, is represented by various structural types of syntactic units: from word combinations to complex sentences with corresponding syntactic components (comparative subordinate clauses, comparative constructions, etc.). Aphorisms, which are equivalents of supraphrase units, are often formed by two sentences, the connection between which is provided by repetitions and other lexical-grammatical means. So, the outstanding philosopher uses a variety of syntactic constructions and stylistic figures, including antithesis, rhetorical questions and objections, various types of repetition, syntactic parallelism, for expressive expression of thought.

Aim. To identify a paradigm of interrogative constructions (rhetorical statements) among the linguistic means of expressiveness in the works of M. Yu. Lermontov and to establish their role in conveying the sacred meanings, spiritual turmoil and inner contradictions within the world of characters created by the poet. To present the functioning of rhetorical statements in revealing sacred meanings associated with the constants “soul” and “love”; in creating the confessional nature of the texts he created; and in their dialogization.Methodology. The research was conducted based on a selection of rhetorical statements with lexical constants “soul” and “love” from M. Yu. Lermontov’s poetic and prose texts. Observations were made regarding their semantic expansion within the context. A structural-semantic analysis of the collected material was carried out, allowing conclusions to be drawn about their participation in the confessional and dialogized nature of the poet’s creative legacy, highlighting its subjectivity and emotionality.Results. It was established that various structural-semantic models of rhetorical statements are one of the most important linguistic means for revealing sacred meanings in the author’s creative legacy, giving it a confessional character.Research implications. The approach proposed in the article for evaluating the use of syntactic means of expressiveness in the text of an individual author can be applied in analyzing such means within the system of expressiveness in the literary texts of other authors.

Broad expressive possibilities of various structural and semantic types of the adjective complex are established when reproducing the most characteristic external and internal features character traits, creation of a certain psychological state, generation of various emotions and feelings. It was determined that the author most often uses complex adjectives with color semantics, as well as composites, the first component of which is the basis of good. Structural semantic features of individually authored novelties, which the writer skilfully puts into the context in order to present to the reader the original features and charismatic image of Roksolana, to express a subjective attitude towards the main character. Complex adjectives (composite adjectives) as analytical units of the modern Ukrainian language belong to the class of sign words and are characterized by a variety of structural-semantic types, an expressive stylistic feature, a wealth of semantics, emotionality and imagery, which contributes to their active use in any communicative situation. Composite adjectives are always used with nouns, narrowing down and concretizing the semantic features of a specific subject, highlighting features characteristic only to it.

The article is aimed at the study of linguistic aspects of persuasion in diplomatic discourse. The discursive analysis has been employed to establish features of diplomatic discourse, whereas the methods of semantic, syntactic and stylistic analyses have been applied to examine linguistic means of persuasion. As a result of the study, persuasion has been defined as a communicative phenomenon which has an impact on the addressee’s opinions, impressions, attitude, feelings, and emotions and includes rational-logical and affective components. Characteristic features of diplomatic style, such as interdiscursiveness, the presence of a mass addressee, the use of cooperative and confrontational strategies, ritualization, dialogical nature, and persuasiveness have been established. Linguistic means of persuasion, namely lexical, grammatical, syntactic and stylistic, have been analyzed in detail. Lexical means of persuasion include etiquette clichés, terms and idioms, abbreviations, international and bookish vocabulary which add a special tonality to the diplomatic document. The use of grammatical means of persuasion (the superlative degree of adjectives and adverbs, intensifiers, infinitive, verbal and parallel constructions) helps to accentuate and highlight important elements in diplomatic texts. In turn, stylistic means, especially epithets, metaphors and metonymy, contribute to the credibility of diplomatic speeches and addresses. The obtained results contribute to further scientific development of the problem of persuasive communication.

Full textAbstract:
The study examines the semantic ranges of the vocabulary of the autobiographical novel “The Gardens of Silihtar” by Western Armenian writer Zapel Yesayan. It also provides ways of interpreting the male-female problem. The aim of the study is to analyze the declaration “I am a woman” in the semantic domain of the vocabulary that determines the phenomenon of femininity. This is realized in the chain of verbal-semantic open subcategories of unconsciousness. The problem of the study is to present the explicit manifestations of the expression of the feminine, including the autonomies and affiliations, which are realized in the semantic domain of the declaration I am a woman as a phenomenon, through highlighting the main lexical-semantic subcategories of the language. The direct form of expression of linguistic features, which is realized in the novel “The Gardens of Silihtar” via verbal-semantic subcategories, is summarized in the subcategories - family, home, friends (collectively), children's toys, nationality, religion, gender, education, residence, of the novel, and contains - woman, girl, maiden, virgin, lady, grandmother, mother, aunt, cousin, with feminine energy, so their relationship with the feminine is based on logical and sensual links. The linguistic means identified in this type of autobiographical text serve to emphasize the fact that the writer identifies herself with the female gender and self-constitutes. For Yesayan, literature is a way to overcome boundaries. And in that reality, her position sounds more radical, although the war with women in society continues by other means, more directly, with the expression I am a woman, on the tongue.
