Abstract:
<em>The relevance of this article is that despite many years of discussions there is still no consensus among researchers in accordance with the right for existence of terminological synonymy as phenomenon. We aim to prove the impossibility of denying the existence and functioning of the phenomenon of terminological synonymy in terminological industry. We plan to analyze the specific effects of synonymy in terminology and consider the classification of terminological synonyms. Majority of linguists indicates the presence of synonyms in different terminology systems considering synonymy in terminology as a negative phenomenon. Popular thought of synonymity as a property of any terminology in the stage of formation when the selection of the most appropriate names for new concepts of science and technology is taking place. But researches from different industries, publishing a significant number of terminological dictionaries show that synonyms inherent in various terminological industries. Achievement of goal caused by solving following tasks: 1) to determine the cause of synonyms of sewing terminology; 2) to clarify the nature of relationships between researched terms in terminological systems; 3) identify possible modifications of synonymous pairs. Thus, despite the request not to use the same synonyms in one terminological system, synonymy of terms is fixed in scientific and technical terminology. Synonymy gives an opportunity to choose the optimal nomination, but it is undesirable in terminology as it complicates scientific communication.</em>

Abstract:
Today, the doctrine of synonyms has been separated into an independent section of linguistics and a corresponding science - synonymy. The problem of synonymy is not only a lexicological problem. Its various aspects attracted the attention not only of language researchers, but also of other sciences, primarily philosophy, semiotics, and psychology. There was a need to understand the results and facts substantiated by these sciences, which leads to an understanding of the multifaceted nature of synonymy, its relationship with various aspects of language and communication. Thirdly, theoretical interest in the problems of synonymy was conditioned by lexicological practice. However, insufficient study of the patterns of speech "behavior" (functioning) of stylistic synonyms and the problem of distinguishing linguistic and speech synonymy belong to the unresolved problems. Such problems are relevant not only in a theoretical, but also in a practical sense. Proceeding from the word, its semantic and stylistic connections and the ability to form established formulas, to reveal the inner form through the possibilities of word formation, associative, contextual relations, the characteristic linguistic and typological features of poetry are revealed, the structure, content, and peculiarities of the functioning of linguistic and aesthetic signs of Ukrainian culture are revealed. They are cross-cutting (key) verbal images that cause the creation of author's contextual synonymous series, lexical-semantic variants of words. From a linguistic point of view, lexical synonymy is a semantic phenomenon based on the opposition of words. A strong position for synonyms is the position of their joint use in the context of the same subject or phenomenon of reality. A weak position is considered to be the position of interchange of synonyms in the context that conveys their common meaning in order to increase the speed of information transfer per unit of time, when the difference between the components of lexical meanings is not actualized due to their irrelevance for the communication process. Thus, the linguistic mechanism that establishes the synonymy or non-synonymity of relations is the neutralization of their lexical meanings.

<i>Today, in order to create linguistic ontologies, it is important to deeply study the phenomenon of synonymy in a language, form their primary elements - synsets, correctly build synonymic rows from a pragmalinguistic point of view, determine the dominant, determine the upper, middle and lower levels of synonymous lines. For this purpose, on the basis of the requirements of practical lexicography, a new "Educational Dictionary of Synonyms of the Uzbek Language" was compiled. When creating this dictionary, synonyms were classified in the process of forming a list of synonyms in the vocabulary of the Uzbek language, and there were views that contradicted the phenomenon of synonymy in traditional linguistic views. This article presents a complete classification of Uzbek synonyms.</i>

Abstract:
Contributing to accuracy of the phrase of one or another meaning, synonyms enrich the literary language and enhance its expressiveness. The goal of this work consists in examination of the occasional synonymy in the poetic texts of &amp;Acirc;&amp;#351;&amp;#305;k &amp;Ouml;mer. The article offers the original synonymy of the poet. The author describes the occasional use of lexemes and their synonyms in the usual meaning. Literary language most accurately reflects the authorial individuality. Fictional texts feature imagery and emotional coloring. Synonyms serve as the means for conveying the richness of artistic language. It is worth noting that namely synonyms describe the author&amp;rsquo;s signature style; emphasis is placed on the occasional lexis. The problem of synonymy, or selection of most suitable words and expressions for a given situation, which most vividly characterize a particular phenomenon of the surrounding reality, has always been one of the crucial problems of lexicology. One of the least developed sections of synonymy is occasional synonymy. Even though some word and phrases in their dictionary meaning do not have synonymic ties, the can become such based on the context. Usage of occasional synonyms in a literary text allows the author to incarnate the concept more vividly, reflect the emotional coloring of his idea, and reveal the character of the heroes. The phenomenon of occasional synonymy is based on the fact that the word acquires a new, contextual meaning; in other words, the problem of occasional synonymy is inseparable from the question on the meaning of the word.

Abstract:
This study delves into the intricate relationship between contextual and lexical synonymy, exploring their role in shaping meaning and communication. Contextual synonymy, a dynamic linguistic phenomenon, arises from the interplay of words within specific contexts. As words are embedded in particular linguistic environments, their meanings can shift and evolve, leading to the emergence of contextual synonyms. This flexibility allows for nuanced expression and enables speakers and writers to adapt their language to specific communicative goals. Lexical synonymy refers to the semantic similarity of words within a language system. Lexical synonyms often form sets of words that share a core meaning but differ in terms of stylistic value, emotional connotation, or frequency of use. These variations contribute to the richness and diversity of language, enabling speakers and writers to express subtle shades of meaning and create stylistic effects. Understanding the interplay between contextual and lexical synonymy is crucial for various fields, including linguistics and translation studies. By examining the factors that influence the choice of synonyms and the impact of context on meaning, researchers can gain insights into the cognitive processes underlying language use. Thus, this study aims to contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of language’s complex nature and synonymy's role in shaping human thought and expression.

. This article examines the questions of teaching modern Armenian synonyms by lexical synonymy and antonymy commonalities and differences, as well as by discovering of the relationship of polysemy and synonymy in the non-professional faculties of the university system (according to the specializations and their appropriate vocabulary). The synonymous and antonymous relations are typical of the words. Polysemy, the general phenomenon of the words and stable compounds, is the combination of more than one meanings in one language unit. In general synonymy and polysemy, antonymy and polysemy of the words have obvious generalities: the same word gets a synonymic or antonymic correlation with other words not entirely, but by its separate meanings. According to their semantic and usual-stylistic aspects, the synonyms are distinguished by adequate and inadequate ones. The lexical synonyms realize their synonymous relations in the speech environment. The synonymic lines may be different from the side of quantity. Synonymic lines of the words is a synchronic language reality, which consists of two or more words. Reccuring to the antonymic lines of the words it is necessary to observe them in parallel with synonymic lines: antonymic words are included into synonymic correlation with other words making certain synonymic - antonymic lines.

The research is devoted to the consideration of the paradigmatic aspect of All-Russian nouns based on the material of the Arkhangelsk’s sub-dialects. We consider All-Russian nouns with rich polysemy in the Arkhangelsk’s sub-dialects, which have a large number of semantic equivalents in relation to bilateral implication. In lexical synonymy, homonymy of Russian sub-dialects, along with distinctive features, there are many similarities with synonymy, homonymy in the vocabulary of the literary language. It is established that All-Russian nouns have large synonymic series defined by language units, which are in the relationship of semantic juxtaposition. In the dialect system, as well as in the literary language, each lexical meaning has its own set of synonyms, which confirms a certain connection of synonymy with polysemy, in other words, a certain connection between paradigmatic relations and the semantic structure of the word is obvious. It is proved that in the dialect system the synonymic chain expands due to the nominations of species branches. In this study we discover characteristic detailing fixing an object, the phenomenon with a different set of concrete distinctive signs that creates certain conditions for rich synonymy.

Abstract:
Although the problem of synonymy is one of the main categories of structural linguistics, it does not hide the fact that it has many controversial issues. Basically, in order to fully study all the functions and natural phenomena of synonymy, it is necessary to conduct a study of semantics in the form. Although the phenomenon of synonymy is recognized in a separate section of lexicology, its universal character allowed to consider it in all areas of linguistic structure. Regardless of the language in which we speak, we follow for that there is a category of synonyms. The phenomenon of synonymy differs in its function of distinguishing values. And meaning is a linguistic expression of thoughts and cognition, therefore, in linguistic questions, related to meaning, does not fit into fixed formulas within the framework of structural linguistics. In terms of the expansion of human knowledge, dynamic changes in the meaning of the language also lead to its transformation. Therefore, one of the unresolved issues in the phenomenon of synonymy is the term synonyms. The article describes the reasons for the formation of term-synonyms, differences from lexical synonyms and changes in semantic development. The study of terms-synonyms is carried out with the aim of developing the use of national terms. This is due to the fact that even now in the Kazakh language there is an equivalent for foreign terms, the parallel use of the term prevents the unification of the term. The formation of absolute synonymous pairs of terms denoting one and the same concept means that one scientific concept has two titles. Therefore, it is necessary to prove which of the two names was chosen and confirmed as a term. This article also serves this purpose.

This article discusses lexemes, which are the main lexical unit of language in the section of linguistics - lexicology, their semantic connection, synonymy in legal terminology, the phenomenon of polysemy, lexical synonyms, variation, a synonymous series consisting of proper and derivative, calque terms, as well as the principle of terms “one term – one concept”, linguistic factor – polysemy, polysemy of terms, their foreign interpretation, thematic groups of legal terms, and general legal thesaurus. In addition, the article pays attention to the frequency of synonymy, which can be observed in the interaction of legal terms. In addition, the article reveals the issue regarding such a phenomenon as the use in official legal texts of a number of terms expressed in two or more words, which negatively affects terminology. Using the example of a number of legal terminological dictionaries and encyclopedias, attention is drawn to lexical synonyms that contradict scientific and formal methods of language - cases of deviation from uniformity, a synonymous series consisting of proper and derived terms, simple and compound terms, the method of tracing, the formation of synonyms, a variant type of synonymy, and the phenomenon of polysemy (multiple meanings) in legal terminology. Conclusions and suggestions regarding the relationship of words and terms in Uzbek legal terminology are also given.

Abstract:
Despite attempts at standardization, several synonyms operate in specialized discourse. This fact has been confirmed by several studies conducted in various fields. An interesting aspect of this phenomenon is that synonymy is carried out with specific features of the terminology of a certain field. At the level of contrastive studies, the types of synonyms may differ depending on the language in a certain domain (we chose French and Uzbek languages). Hence the importance of comparing the types of synonyms available in legal speech in French and Uzbek languages and their use in this speech. Synonymy can also have different functions and purposes depending on the area of specialization, especially in law.

Abstract:
Evil in Mind: The Psychology of Harming Others offers readers an accessible, social-scientific understanding of the concept of evil and its various incarnations. Rather than simply using “evil” as an undefined synonym for human nastiness, Part 1 of the book first establishes when and why people apply the “evil” label to perpetrators and their misdeeds. It also addresses why most people do not want to see themselves—or be seen by others—as evil: Being labeled “evil” is the ultimate signifier of social rejection. Indeed, although dogged pursuit of good feelings and the effortful avoidance of bad feelings often causes suffering for others, people make use of an astounding array of cognitive reframing and self-presentation strategies to dodge the “evil” label. Part 2 illustrates how these core principles can aid comprehension of phenomena such as hate, sadism, serial killers, and group-based evil such as genocide, corporate wrongdoing, and familial abuse. Throughout, Evil in Mind attempts to nudge the reader toward a mindset that is self-reflective rather than ghoulish or self-congratulatory: Whether one’s actions result in harm that is horrifically irreparable or comparatively minor, the motives driving such actions and the menu of goals and strategies for deflecting condemnation are not really all that different. Thus, Evil in Mind presents the reader with a systematic, research-based psychological analysis of the phenomenon of evil that is compact, digestible, and potentially transformative.

Abstract:
In Resisting Occupation, international scholars discuss the radical denial of human flourishing caused by the occupation of mind, body, spirit, and land. They explore how religious perspectives can be, and often are, constructed by occupiers to justify their actions, perpetuate exploitation, and domesticate indigenous landholders. In the name of Christianization and civilization, which has proven to be a global phenomenon beyond time and space, a consistent domestication process is established. The colonized are taught to want, to yearn for, and to embrace their occupation, seeing themselves through the eyes of their colonizers. Writing from different spots around the globe, the scholars of this book demonstrate how occupation, a synonym for empire, is manifested within their social context and reveal unity in their struggle for liberation. Recognizing that where there is oppression, there is resistance, the contributors turn to religion. While questioning the logic, rationale, theology, and epistemology of the empire’s religion, they nonetheless seek the liberative response of resistance – at times using the very religion of the occupiers.

Abstract:
AbstractWhile transnationalism and mobility are sometimes used as synonyms, the two concepts have different focuses: on attachments within different countries in transnationalism and on multiple and open-ended moves in the mobility approach. In this chapter, we explore how the two concepts intersect with onward migration in the context of Brexit. The loss of rights linked to EU freedom of movement that is part of the Brexit process increases the orientations towards further migration while, at the same time, limiting the opportunities for further migration. We use in-depth interviews with EU27 citizens in the UK, UK citizens in Belgium and Bangladeshis who have naturalised in Italy before moving to the UK. We show how the completed onward migration to the UK of the Italo-Bangladeshis has weakened transnational activities in relation to Bangladesh, including periodic returns and remittances. We further show how transnational links delimit the mobility orientation of EU citizens ‘by birth’, by focusing on the plans for return migration, rather than onward migration within the EU. Given these results, we reflect on whether transnationalism and mobility theory are simply convergent or if they describe phenomena that might actually be in partial opposition.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract The term affect is used in a multitude of ways in the wellbeing literature, and this chapter identifies three diverging clusters of definitions. One considers affect to be an umbrella term, a top-down concept under which moods, emotions, feelings, and other kinds of affect are taxonomically organized. A second group of definitions holds affect to be a bottom-up phenomenon. Here, affect is taken to be a fundamental or primitive building block, a “natural kind” that is present in all other concepts referred to as affective or emotional. On this view, an emotion is not a kind of affect but contains affect as one of its constituents. The third cluster of affect definitions uses affect as a synonym for other concepts, such as moods, emotions, or feelings. The HTW uses affect as an umbrella term, and the chapter proceeds by surveying the major kinds of affect, such as temperament, mood, emotion, feeling, and evaluation. For emotions, three groups of theories are examined. They consider emotions to be basic, continuous, or constructed, respectively. Among the presented approaches, one of the basic theories, referred to as the communicative theory of emotions, appears to be the most promising. The theory offers a list of nine basic emotions, among which the “big four” of happiness, sadness, anger, and fear are the best exemplars. According to the communicative theory, basic emotions are psychological primitives and therefore cannot be separated into lower-level states that are not themselves emotions. A feeling state is part of an emotion but is not limited to emotions. In contrast to emotions, feelings are always present in a conscious mind, and they reflect what it is like to have a subjective experience on a moment-to-moment basis. A feeling informs us if we are OK or in need of tending, and it comprises four components: valence (pleasure/displeasure) tells us how good a stimulus is; quality identifies the nature of what we are feeling; intensity accounts for the importance of the feeling; and duration tells us how long a feeling is lasting. An evaluation is another kind of affect; it represents a valuation mechanism and is quite similar to a feeling in terms of functions. However, evaluations are not restricted to being consciously experienced and can be integrated into other mental processes, such as perception. A promising approach has been developed by Shizgal, and it suggests that a good-bad evaluation interacts with nonevaluative dimensions to generate a value judgment. The last part of the paper provides an account of emotional happiness and emotional interest. Emotional happiness has many different meanings, but two major conceptualizations are easily identified. One associates happiness with active goal pursuits and with the execution of plans that are progressing well. The second conceptualization links happiness with low-effort activities and with goal achievement and the fulfillment of needs. The HTW refers to happiness in this latter sense as a harmony feeling. Emotional interest is related to learning and exploring unfamiliar territory. It often occurs when we are confronted with a challenge and when skills are developed. Interest therefore belongs to a category called “opportunity feelings.” Harmony feelings differ from opportunity feelings both functionally and phenomenologically. Hence, it is unfortunate that mainstream wellbeing research tends to collapse them both into the grab-bag notion of “positive affect.”

Abstract:
This paper is the first complex research of lexical synonyms as components of the artistic discourse of modern Ukrainian female prose introduced into the field of semantic, linguistic and stylistic analysis. The scientific novelty of the paper is that for the first time in linguistic and Ukrainian studies the lexical synonymy in modern Ukrainian female prose is comprehensively explored, as a result of which the semantic, linguistic and stylistic features of synonyms are clarified. The study proves that in the analyzed works lexical synonyms, which express the idiolects of modern Ukrainian female prose writers and constitute a set of expressive and imaging marking means of their language creation, represent a number of semantic, linguistic-stylistic, categories. Which allows interpreting them not only in the functional-semantic context but also within linguostylistics. Modern Ukrainian female prose in Ukrainian literature is the latest holistic socio-cultural phenomenon is represented by the works of such authors as Emma Andiievska, Sophiia Andrukhovych, Nina Bichui, Liuko Dashvar, Oksana Zabuzhko, Kateryna Kalytko, Irena Karpa, Yevhenii Kononenko, Maria Matios and others. In the paper it is proved that word convergences appear in the literary text because of the special purpose, the purpose set by the authors, therefore they become striking representatives of idiolects of separate masters of prose. In the paper a detailed analysis of lexical synonyms is carried out, which in the artistic discourse of modern Ukrainian female prose perform a number of basic and additional functions, among which are: functions of differentiation, substitution, aesthetics, synonymic opposition, etc. Using lexical synonyms in different contexts, prose female writers always carefully weigh the semantic nuances of each word, thus achieving the expressiveness, sophistication and high aesthetic value of their literature.

Abstract:
Abstract Different types of phenomena have different causal profiles, which are structures that characterize different sub-classes of causally defined phenomena. There is a distinction between origin-dominant and end-dominant causal profiles: in the former, the efficient cause has priority, while in the latter the final cause has priority. The varieties of causal profile are distinguished, and shown to align with other philosophically important distinctions Aristotle draws. Their nature and use are illustrated by an application to a specific phenomenon. The distinctions among causal profiles can resolve more local puzzles about Aristotle’s account of causality, including his attitude toward the so-called Principle of Causal Synonymy, and his various claims that formal and final causes are “one” or the same.

Abstract:
The article examines the phenomenon of accusing Protestants of Judaism within the context of Orthodox scholarship in the Grand Duchy of Lithuania during the second half of the 16th century. Such accusations prompted a study of the “Lutors” in this region, suggesting that they had adopted Jewish ideas of Orthodox Christians. This article employs discourse analysis to investigate the accusatory passages used by Orthodox polemicists, aiming to uncover the roots of their religious criticism of Protestants. The analysis seeks to clarify the roles of “Lutors” and “Jews” in the Orthodox worldview of the 16th century. The author reviews Orthodox polemical texts targeting Protestants, Hussites, and local “heretics,” leading to the identification of a synonymy between the terms “Lutor” and “Jew.” This association, as posited by polemicists, stems from both groups’ shared commitment to iconoclastic ideas. This tendency is characteristic of the polemical literature of Muscovite Rus’. The Orthodox perception of iconoclasts as restorers of Judaism is reflected in the Byzantine Chronicle of George Amartol, a contemporary of the iconoclastic disputes. Furthermore, equating Jews and Protestants emerged as a strategic polemical device, positioning “Lutors” as primary adversaries of the Orthodox Church.

Abstract:
In the last decade with the new technology, it is important to allow users to access information freely, while at the same time, restrict them from illegal copying and distribution of information. In the age of information technologies plagiarism has become a topical subject in the digital world and turned into a serious problem. The author's work deals with the development of a new system for combating this phenomenon using a new insect behaviour algorithm called Groping cockroaches classifier GCC. Each suspicious text (cockroach) will be classified (hidden) in a class (shelter) that can be plagiarism or no-plagiarism, using a security function that is based on the attractiveness of each class (calculated using the aggregation operators (shelter darkness, congeners attraction and security quality)) and the displacement probability (calculated using the naive Bayes algorithm). The experimental results performed on the Pan 09 dataset and using the validation measures (recall, precision, f-measure, and entropy), have demonstrated that GCC has clear advantages over others plagiarism detection techniques existed in literature. Finally, a set of service was added in order to detect the different cases of plagiarism such as plagiarism with translation, plagiarism of idea, plagiarism with synonymy, and plagiarism paraphrase.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract The study of polysemy, or of the ‘multiplicity of meanings’ of words, has a long history in the philosophy of language, linguistics, psychology, and literature. The complex relations between meanings and words were first noted by the Stoics (Robins 1967). They observed that a single concept can be expressed by several different words (synonymy) and that conversely, one word can carry different meanings (polysemy). The collection of papers assembled here represents current research into the issues arising from polysemy, such as the nature of polysemy; its relation to the more general phenomenon of semantic ambiguity; the ways in which multiple meanings, or senses, are represented in a dictionary or lexicon and related to each other; the principles that govern these relations and the mechanisms that allow the creation of new senses. Since words are used in context, the mechanisms by which polysemous words combine with others to form the meaning of larger syntactic units are also addressed. Polysemy is rarely a problem for communication among people. We are so adept at using contextual cues that we select the appropriate senses of words effortlessly and unconsciously. The sheer number of senses listed by some sources as being available to us usually comes as a surprise: Out of approximately 60,000 entries in Webster’s Seventh Dictionary, 21,488, or almost 40 per cent, have two or more senses, according to Byrd et al. (1987). Moreover, the most commonly used words tend to be the most polysemous. The verb run, for example, has 29 senses in Webster’s, further divided into nearly 125 sub-senses.

Abstract:
The paper examines the polysemantic structure of the charitable adjective mršav and the possibility of using it as an alternative to other adjectives with the meaning of insufficiency. All lexemes with the secondary meaning of scarcity can alternatively be used to denote a wide range of phenomena, which is one of the most important features of lexemes with a charitable meaning. Charitability can be expressed lexically (with various adjectives and their derivatives), but also formatively, by adding different prefixes to the adjective base. In the analysis of the meaning of the adjective mršav, we started with the situation given in the descriptive dictionaries of the Serbian language. The dominance of this adjective in denoting the properties of living beings of certain bodily characteristics is also indicated by the non-existence of a true synonym, but also by the large number of alternative adjectives that can replace it in the mentioned meaning. Most of these alternative adjectives are marked with normative qualifiers or are stylistically colored, so they are used in more expressive phrases concerning the body structure of living beings. The large number of synonyms in the adjective’s secondary meanings indicate it being a broad-meaning lexeme, which is used to describe all kinds of shortcomings, indicating scarcity within different areas of reality. The secondary meanings of the adjective mršav usually indicate an undesirable property of the term, which is also true for many other polysemantic adjectives in the Serbian language.

Abstract:
Abstract Today’s rongorongo nomenclature derives principally from the two major Easter Island publications of Katherine Routledge (1919) and Alfred Metraux (1940). Yet neither author seems to have studied the rongorongo nomenclature in depth or understood how it had evolved in the drastically changing Rapanui society of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Benjamin Stone (cited in Barreau, 1963: 61) once wrote: “One indication of a cultural preoccupation with a phenomenon is the size of the vocabulary referring to it”. Though Rapanui’s rongorongo was no exception in this regard, the size of the rongorongo nomenclature-a synonymic welter from the 1860s up to the present day-testifies more to the confusion of the phenomenon’s reception on postmissionary Rapanui than to its original make-up. What the vocabulary of rongorongo consisted of on premissionary Rapanui is essentially unknown. There are no documents antedating the 186os about this, and informants’ statements about the earlier society reflect the society and language of Rapanui when the informants were questioned-invariably many years after the event.

Abstract:
Abstract The Introduction begins to substantiate the argument that the Enlightenment was not a phenomenon beginning in the eighteenth century but a term of historical explanation widely propagated, in anglophone societies, only from the mid twentieth. It draws on the methodology for intellectual history established by the Cambridge School, and explores the breakdown in a number of fields of some of the key concepts of modernism: feudalism, scientific revolution, industrial revolution, class. It reviews the aims of the postmodernists Lyotard and Foucault. It shows how different versions of the Enlightenment were constructed by enlisting as its members different selections of participants. It notes the late arrival of synonyms for ‘the Enlightenment’ in languages other than English. And it explains the book’s three-part structure.

Abstract:
Synonymy in medical terminology is a natural phenomenon, an indispensable attribute of specialized language, triggered by the continuous evolution of medical science, which implicitly reveals new aspects, new valences, specialized knowledge that needs to be designated. The purpose of our paper is to reveal the role of synonymous series in structuring the language semantic dimension through the organic exteriorization of the semantic aspects of similarity at the level of lexemes in medical terminology. We also pay special attention to numerically different synonymous series (bi-member and poli-member) as well as the place they hold in medical language at all three lexical levels (non-terminological, scientific and terminological). Finally, aspects related to the research of synonyms are discussed based on the semantic, integral and differential characteristics, which make possible the semantic nuance in the paradigms they form (structure of the synonymous series, core, periphery, etc.).

Abstract:
1. The motivation of words and phraseological units, and hence motivational relations, is a linguistic universality. 2. In the lexical and phraseological composition of a large number of languages, motivational words make up a large part of the lexis. 3. Motivated words, phraseological units and related lexical processes are generated by one of the main trends in language development ‒ the trend towards the motivation of the linguistic sign. 4. One of the basic tasks of lexicology is the study of the lexis as a system. Motivational relations are a type of systemic relations of lexical units, namely ‒ the type of epidigmatic relations, the analysis of which is only at the beginning. 5. The motivational relations that present the essence of the phenomenon of motivation, unlike other systemic relations, e.g. synonymic, antonymic, paronymic, variational, have a general character

Abstract:
Every complementary approach is at the same time interdisciplinary, but not vice versa. This elementary methodological rule at INNOAGON (an acronym for the new applied science ‘innovative agonology’) is crucial because it applies whenever the word ‘struggle’ (or its synonyms) emphasises the extremity of the phenomenon under study The aim of this work is to highlight the two basic methods of INNOAGON in the most general terms. If one accepts the most general definition of method as 'a means of achieving an end', it is clear that in the field of research methodology the cognitive layer dominates over the applied one. Science is a human activity, so it is not surprising that also in this area there is room for 'fashionable lines of research', as well as crushes on 'fashionable theories'. The simplest definition of the word 'everything' – 'without exception', intuitively raises doubts: when it comes to 'theory of everything', is it really about the capabilities (competences) of science? At the core of the complementary approach is the awareness of the already available valuable knowledge about the explored phenomenon, the knowledge about the hypotheses and new questions posed by the experts studying this phenomenon, but also the awareness of the necessity to face the unknown.

Abstract:
Puns play a great artistic role in L. Carroll’s style, so the primary task of the translator when working with his texts is to choose the right translation strategy to preserve the uniqueness of the writer’s style. The aim of our research is to analyse the peculiarities of translating puns in L. Carroll’s fairy tale "Alice in Wonderland" into Russian. In this article we study the essence of the concept of “pun”, consider its classification, then move on to the analysis of translation techniques and then analyse what techniques are used by the translator to preserve the equivalence of the translation text, to convey not only the content, but also the stylistic expression and humorous component of the text. Puns as a stylistic device have been considered by many specialists, however, despite the considerable amount of research, many aspects of this phenomenon still remain rather uncertain: for example, the synonymity of puns and wordplay or the question of the most effective translation techniques for translating puns. It was found that compensation, semantic development, substitution and addition are the most frequently used techniques in translating puns, which help to maintain equivalence, they help to achieve an equivalent effect on the reader, both of the source text and the translation.

Abstract:
Consideration of aspects of the functioning of mass media in society requires a comprehensive approach based on universal media theory. The article presents an attempt to consider public events in terms of a functional approach to understanding the media, proposed by media theorist Dennis McQuayl in the theory of mass communication. Public events are analyzed, on the one hand, as a complex object of journalistic reflection and, on the other hand, as a situational media that examines the relationship of agents of the social and media fields in the space of communication interaction. Taking into account philosophical approaches to the interpretation of the concept of event, considering its semantic spectrum, specificity of use and synonyms in the Ukrainian language, a working definition of the concept of public event is given. Based on case-analysis of public events, In accordance with the functions of the media the functions of public events are outlined. This is is promising for the development of study on typology of public events in the context of mass communication theory. The realization of the functions of public events as situational media is illustrated with such vivid examples of cultural events as «Gogolfest» and «Book Forum in Lviv». The author shows that a functional approach to understanding public events in society and their place in the space of mass communication, opens prospects for studying the role of media in reflecting the phenomena of social reality, clarifying the presence and quality of communication between media producers and media consumers.
