The paper is grounded upon the fact that the amount of vocabulary in the English language is expending and growing quickly, as its constant development and enrichment are both an obligatory condition and a direct consequence of the progress in the particular branches of human activity. It has been accentuated that all terms, fulfilling the applied function of the tools of cognition and means of fixing scientific and technological progress, are unified and fixed in the language. Based on this, the classification of terms has been done according to normativity – non-normativity. Grounding on the number of already existing definitions, we understand a terminological phrase as a semantically integral word combination of two and more words connected by prepositions, or asyndetically. The correlation concerning the morphological structure of terms demonstrates a clearly expressed tendency of derivation being used as the main way of word-building in the development of sports terminological units. The conducted analysis of the studied mono- and multi-component terminological units showed that derivation is one of the most powerful sources of development of sport terminology. The corpus of sports terms can be described in accordance with the specialized spheres of use. The amount of vocabulary in the English language is expending and growing quickly, as its constant development and enrichment are both an obligatory condition and a direct consequence of the progress in the particular branches of human activity. The dynamic development of sports contributes to its belonging to the social area and gains a global meaning. Sport is not only a purely professional activity of a person, but also a part of the cultural, political and economic life of the country, an integral segment of traditions and self-consciousness of the people. Sport draws attention of lots of specialists and scholars, in particular linguists, who study its verbal representation and treat sports terminology as a prior one.
In the article, for the first time in Eastern European linguodidactics, an original method of using students' emotional intelligence data and their personal linguoculture for a new structuring of didactic material in the study of foreign languages (on the example of Ukrainian as a foreign language) is offered. The authors aimed to make theoretical generalizations and conclusions about the main subject of the research, to determine the types of emotional-intellectual relation of students to a foreign language in the classes of the higher educational institutions and to model the general methodological scheme on the basis of sociological and functional-semantic data. The used methods can be clearly divided into theoretical, sociological and modeling, which made it possible to demonstrate a new approach to the thematic presentation of didactic material on the example of the concept HAPPY and determine the degree of flexibility of students' emotional intelligence in foreign language classes. First of all, the international significance of the article lies in the first attempt of the synthesis of the theory of emotional intelligence and linguoculturology (theory of concepts) in the optimization of the foreign language didactics; secondly, the authors, with the help of associative experiment and functional-field thematic structuring, offered a new model of presenting the lexical material of foreign language teaching for the first time.
The article reveals the potential of the socio-cultural space of a traditional folk holiday in the aspect of the formation of value orientations of the younger generation. The urgency of the problem is due to the increased attention to the search for effective ways to form the value orientations of adolescents in modern society, in the system in which the traditional folk holiday culture occupies a special place. A comparative and theoretical analysis of the literature on the research issue is utilized to meet the study’s aim. The paper analyzed the state of practical activities of cultural and leisure institutions with adolescents and concluded that the study of the traditional folk holiday as a socio-cultural space for the formation of the personality of adolescents allows justifying its great educational potential in the value-forming process.
Broad understanding of phraseology suggests that proverbs are necessary components of the phraseological system of any language [1], thus having a certain potential to be used in pessimistic utterances. Proverb is a «succinct and pithy saying in general use, expressing commonly held ideas and beliefs» [7]. Proverbs as clichéd, aphoristic and sententious units reproduced without significant changes in communicative situations, contain implicitly wider as compared to explicitly expressed, factual and evaluative-aesthetic information.The semantic analysis of proverbs [4; 5; 6] has helped to indicate the semes of pessimism that reveal their potential ability to express qualitative features of pessimism in speech. It has been found that 47.3% of the proverbs under analysis explicate only one qualitative feature of pessimism in speech. The rest (52.7%) serve to express a set of qualitative features of pessimism.One qualitative feature of pessimism is implemented in speech by proverbs, which express: 1) basic features of pessimism: «misfortune» -Wednesday's child is full of woe; «failure»a miss is as good as a mile; it's (just) one thing after another; it's the same old story; marry at haste and repent at leisure; marry in may, rue for aye; small choice in rotten apples; when poverty comes in at the door, love flies out of the window; «negative expectations»hope for the best and prepare for the worst; bread always falls buttered side down; hope is a good breakfast but a bad supper; many go out for wool and come home shorn; shit happens; sing before breakfast, cry before night; sorrow comes unsent for; the best-laid schemes of mice and men gang aft a-glay; «uncertainty»don't shout until you are out of the woods; go farther and fare worse; if you can't run with
