The first introduction of Arabisms in the German language returns to the seven century, when the most scientific fields of the German language community were affected by new Arabic lexical unities. Because of the considerable and significant development of scientific researches while the middle age in the Arab countries, several Arabism were been introduced in the German language, which belong to different scientific domains, like Medicine, Chemistry, Mathematics, Literature, Religion, Astronomy, Linguistics, Philosophy. Besides, the translations movement during middle age from Greek and Latin languages into German participated to the appearance and the use of those Arabisms in the German language. In the modern German language are Arabisms an inseparable linguistic part of the communicative behavior in the German language community, because of the enormous influence on the semantic level of the intercultural communicative processes.

O. Cherkhava Teological linguistic principles of religious popular discourse study in the context of cognitive matrix reconstruction
Abstract. The article examines linguistic reconstruction analysis, starting from classic epoch and structuralism, going forward to axiomatic anthropological functionalism period, up to modern anthropocentric, text-discursive, cognitive and conceptual linguistic world view approaches, showing changes in the notional kernel of the following phenomenon. Linguistic reconstruction, as polyparadigmatic theoretical and methodic problem, is associated with interdisciplinary linguistic approach and conceptual world view, as the constituent architectonic model/matrix of philosophical discourse sense, and is presupposed by the dominant lines of general linguistic science development, especially nowadays by cognitive comparative linguistics. The definition of religious popular discourse, as one of four varieties of religious discourse type of institutional discourse, is presented. The kernel criteria of religious popular discourse identification is suggested and religious popular texts classification is provided. The descriptive term “theolinguistic matrix” is proposed, showing special religious popular discourse model in it. The reconstruction of religious popular senses of the kernel basic concept INCLINATION TO CHRISTIAN FAITH and the mechanism of the basic RELIGIOUS BIBLICAL KNOWLEDGE metaphorization are identified. The importance of inner and outer motivational reconstruction of lexical and discursive items, that actualize these senses, is emphasized. Types of metaphoric models in English, German and Ukrainian religious popular discourse are singled out. Differentiation between terms “reconstruction” and “matrix reconstruction” in the scope of the following article is stressed.
Keywords: cognitive comparative linguistics, linguistic reconstruction, theology and religion, religious popular discourse, matrix reconstruction.

Dobrovolska D. M. Translation research methodology of advertising texts: main translation strategies
Abstract. The article is devoted to the basic methodological approaches to the translation of advertising texts. The basic scientific approaches that define the methods and principles of translation are specified and the concepts of leading scientists describing major translation trends examined. The concept of translation strategies in light of communicative and pragmatic approach to the study of linguistic phenomena is defined and the nature of the translation strategy is described. Communicative approach to translation, including translation of advertising texts is actualized. Two opposing trends are delimited: focus on the original text and focus on the addressee, providing isolation in the translated text of the information of various kinds. The usage of both methods in the translation of advertising texts is analyzed. The expediency selection of translation strategies mainly focused on the recipient of the advertising message is grounded. The article sets out the basic theoretical and methodological aspects of the translation of advertising texts, so it can be used in the development of the theoretical basis of translation of texts designed for the mass addressee.
Keywords: advertising text, translation, translation strategy, the structure of the text, micro text, addressee.

Dorofeeva M. S. The nonclassical type of scientific rationality in translation synergetics
Abstract. The article is an attempt to use the philosophical categories of “subject”, “object”, “research operations (tools)” as units of translation comparative analysis within synergetic methodology of translation studies. During the evaluation of translation quality the cognitive principles of nonclassical scientific rationality’s type are applied. The typical objects and research operations tools of nonclassical type in translation studies were defined as well. The evaluation matrix of special purpose text’s translation based on textual genre “homily” was looked upon.
Keywords: translation synergetics, type of scientific rationality, translation of special purpose texts, evaluation criteria of translation quality, genre and stylistic markers, discourse markers.

І. M. Feltsan New approaches to foreign language teaching for adults
Summary. The below presented article touches upon the peculiarities of foreign language teaching for adults. Leading European educational institutions are focused on the adjustment of teaching methodology to the demands of an adult student, demanding new skills for a successful professional activity. There’s a tendency for renewal of a study content and change of study prerogatives. The already formed professional applying for foreign language skills has a complex motivation system which differs from that of a child or a teenager. Thus, under these conditions, teacher takes over the function of an adragogue – term widely used in modern adult pedagogy, describing a teacher-supervisor having good psychological competence, emotional intellect and modern technologies awareness to enlist a student into the world of new professional challenges. We’ve pointed out the main approaches to foreign language study process of adults which should be implemented at classes.
Keywords: adult education, lifelong study, andragogue, humanitarian approach, motivation, individual centered activity, foreign language competence, media pedagogy.

Kapranov Y. V. Scientific Debate on the Nostratic Hypothesis
Abstract. This article represents a critical view of researchers of different generations on the Nostratic hypothesis, i.e. the hypothetical macrofamily of languages, combining several language families and separate languages in Europe, Asia and Africa, which probably derive from the Nostratic Proto-Language. Based on the numerous attempts to prove the possible relationship of the Indo-European and Semitic (G. Ascoli, F. Delitzsch, R. von Raumer), Turkic (H. Pedersen), Uralic (B. Collinder), Finno-Ugric (N. Anderson, G. Moller, G. Sweet, H. Pedersen, B. Thomsen), when the comparison was made between three or more language families (A.B. Dolgopolsky, V.A. Dybo H. Pedersen, S.A. Starostin, A. Bomhard, G. Greenberg, A.M. Ramer et al.), contributed to the formulation of the provisions of the Nostratic theory, which was perceived ambiguously and caused mostly skeptical attention from individual representatives (G. Doerfer, P.A. Michalove, J. Puhvel, B. Vine et al.) to this vision of linguistic relationship. The main controversial problem deals with the temporary depth of reconstructed features, because the alleged ancestor existed before, the lower the number of signs that can be reconstructed with some certainty. There are also researchers among representatives of Indo- European Studies who do not share the views of representatives of this theory, suggesting that the Nostratic methodology does not have the necessary rigor. The main debate are going on over major language families, included in the Nostratic macrofamily, i.e. the expansion of the number of languages involved in the comparison.
Keywords: Nostratic theory, Nostratic Proto-Language, scientific debate, etymon, reconstruction, comparison.

Kashchyshyn N. On the Problem of Differentiation of the Diplomatic Discourse
Abstract. The article is dedicated to the study of the English diplomatic discourse, its features and parameters that allow to set it apart as a separate type of discourse. It is discussed that distinctive features of the diplomatic discourse are prescriptiveness, institutionality, rituality, international and intercultural character. It is suggested that among taxonomic parameters of the English diplomatic discourse a special role is occupied by modus. It is proved that the means of four functional styles (publicistic, epistolary, belles-lettres and official) are used in the texts of the diplomatic discourse. The ratio of these styles largely depends on the genre.
