A. O. Chebotarova Functional and communicative peculiarities of the prosodic component in the English fairy tale discourse
https://doi.org/10.31174/SEND-Ph2022-264X77-01
Abstract. The article examines the functional and communicative peculiarities of the usage of the prosodic components and its interaction with the verbal components of communication based on the material of the English fairy tale discourse. It discusses the influence of prosodic means on the achievement of communicative intentions while implementation of cooperative / confrontational strategies and communication tactics by fairy tale communicants. It was found that the intonation spectrum and modulation of the voice, which depend on such parameters as age asymmetry and gender of speakers, are crucial for the formation and expression of commu- nicative intention of speakers.
Keywords: verbal component of communication, fairy-tale discourse, communication, cooperative/confrontational strategy, prosodic component.

T. V. Davydova, V. O. Bondarenko Anti-concept. Opposition. Antonym. Linguistic Overview
https://doi.org/10.31174/SEND-Ph2022-264X77-02
Abstract. The article gives a brief overview of the three basic terms of the present-days linguistics – anti-concept – opposition – anto- nym – which have become disputative within the recent decades of scientific research. Taking into account the logical, philosophical and cultural background the authors offer the new look at the problem of their differentiation. Thus, antonyms are traditionally viewed as the same parts of speech always based on rigid logical opposition, while anti-concepts are considered to also include the logical opposition, as well as to be formed as a result of unusual, illogical, avant-garde, unconventional opposition arising in the context.
Keywords: antinomies, opposition(s), conceptual oppositions, oppositional concepts, conceptual dichotomies, binary concepts, binary oppositions.

G. V. Dyshleva Cognitive characteristics of phraseological units with anthroponymic component (the concept of "man in the world")
https://doi.org/10.31174/SEND-Ph2022-264X77-03
Abstract. The article is devoted to the study of the cognitive characteristics of phraseological units, which form the concept of “Man in the world” as part of the lexical system of the Ukrainian language. The defining factors of phraseological units with this anthroponymic component, which determines the specifics of their functioning, are substantiated, the division into semantic subgroups is made, the most important characteristics of these phraseological units are singled out, as part of phraseology, studied the positive and negative connotations that contribute to the image of man in the world. The task of establishing systemic connections within a select- ed array of units is important for the multifaceted study of the phraseological units of the concept of “Man in the World”. The selection of material by semantic subgroups are allowed to show the richness and diversity of this powerful phraseological layer in the Ukrainian language and to reveal the greatest representation in a particular concept of the analyzed units.
Keywords: phraseological units with anthroponymic component, axiological characteristics, human mental properties, polysemy of phraseological units, positive and negative connotations.

Abtract. The article presents a contrastive study of Armenian idiomatic expressions constituting numerals. The research mainly reports research findings from linguocultural and translation perspective. The findings suggest that English idioms with numbers are translated into mother tongue according to three main categories of equivalence: full equivalence, partial equivalence and non-equivalence. And in terms of equivalence is dominant partial equivalence.
Keywords: contrastive study, idiomatic expression, full equivalence, partial equivalence and non- equivalence.

https://doi.org/10.31174/SEND-Ph2022-264X77-06
Abstract. The article highlights the necessity of including sociolinguistic knowledge with national and cultural specifics in the professionally-oriented training of future teachers to use English intonation in speech. The study contains the overview of linguistic and speech means of the English-language communicative strategy of evasion and mitigation in the framework of pragmalinguistics and foreign languages teaching methodology. A set of relevant intoneme-markers is analysed within the two main tactics of the strategy: evasion of responsibility and mitigation by questions, which reflect the national tendency of the British to convey conflict-free governed communication.
Keywords: Intonation, intoneme, communicative strategy, cross-cultural communication.

L. V. Knyshevytska Using narratives of personal experience in L2 oral language proficiency testing
https://doi.org/10.31174/SEND-Ph202-264X77-07
Abstract. Out of countless genres of oral narratives, narratives of personal experience are perhaps the most universal, common and convenient way of relating past events and memories. It is also the most fruitful source for the study of narrative discourse due to personal involvement of a narrator. Considering universality of story-telling, the use of a narrative of personal experience to assess oral language proficiency of L2 learners seems a very effective approach. The present study investigates discourse organization of L2 interviewees’ responses to one particular question in an English oral language proficiency test (Video Oral Communication Instru- ment or VOCI) that is consrtucted in a form of an semi-direct video conference with the English language learners. The participants of the study are twenty-five EFL university students enrolled into English language classes in Ukraine that are divided into two groups according to their levels of L2 proficiency. The hypothesis of the study is that there is a positive linear correlation between a level of proficiency and a preference for either a strategy of a narration or a narrative. However, the results of the study, showed non- linear correlation in both proficiency groups (intermediate and advanced/ superior) between the language proficiency and a choice of a narrative or narration strategies. Both strategies were chosen by the candidates as the optimal strategies for their level of oral lan- guage proficiency. Apparently, it is easier to tell a sory due to its universality than to describe in L2. The lower level testees use this knowledge as a compensation strategy, the higher ones as an efficiency strategy. The study has important implications for the meth- odology of L2 teaching and testing. Thus, such a non-linear correlation between the level of proficiency of the testee and his/her pragmatic and linguistic competence in a second language to frame the answers as speech acts, might suggest second language in- structors to teach their students speech act theory and a theory of a narrative structure (Abstract, Orientation, Complicating Action, Evaluation, Coda) in L2 classes that will be helpful for the students during their language learning and testing.
Keywords: Narrative, narration, speech act, story-telling, narratives of personal experience, discourse analysis, L2 oral testing, VOCI, oral language proficiency, oral language testing, interview, speech act theory, a theory of a narrative structure.

N. Sargsyan Metaphor Translation in Literary Works through the Prism of Cognitive Linguistics
https://doi.org/10.31174/SEND-Ph2022-264X77-12
Abstract. A number of theories from the fileds of linguistics, literature, text interpretation and translation have been dedicated to the study of metaphor as both a unique linguistic expressive element and a phenomenon reflecting person’s imaginitive thinking. The complex structure and essence of metaphor has been studied not only in the domain of linguistics, but also in the fields of psychological, philosophical, cognitive and many other sciences. In the present article we have sought to define the nature and significance of metaphor in human mentality and language. We have also discussed and analyzed the peculiarities, methods and means of the realization of metaphor translation in target language. Metaphor translation supposes a complex mental activity carried out by a translator and the outcome of this activity is to transfer in the most detailed way both conceptual-cognitive specificities and reader-directed artistic impact of the original metaphor to the resultant metaphor of the target language. The present article emphasizes the importance of consideration of cognitive linguistic theories relating to the investigation of the essence and translation of metaphor.
Keywords: metaphor, translation, cognitive linguistics, concept, conceptual system, imaginitive thinking, source language, target language, text interpretation.

N. V. Skybytska Metaphor as a means of new lexemes’ formation within the semantic field of COVID-19
https://doi.org/10.31174/SEND-Ph2022-264X77-13
Abstract. The COVID-19 pandemic has not only changed the way and steady pace of our lives, it has also caused a rapid surge in the development of the vocabulary of the world’s languages. Thus, units of the primary and, primarily, of the second nomination are actualized to fill in new lexical gaps to ensure successful communication. Simple nomination, conducted by means of word-formation, prevails in Modern English with affixation, telescopy, shortening and composition occupying the leading roles. At the same time, more and more data from various studies indicate that the most productive types of vocabulary development include metaphoric and metonymic transfers, so in this particular regard the analysis of metaphor and semantic derivatives have been of great interest to our inves- tigation. The lexical field of COVID-19 was exposed to a great amount of neologisms that are the products of the semantic progression. Semantic derivation is manifested in metaphorization of terms of other branches of knowledge and commonly used words, replenishment of a number of internationalisms with terms that regulate our social life (sanitizer, lockdown). The results of the study also indicate a certain determinologization of vocabulary and processes of migration of lexical units between different functional styles of one language.
Keywords: metaphor, secondary nomination, terminologization, determinologization, neologism.

https://doi.org/10.31174/SEND-Ph2022-264X77-14
Abstract. The scientific research is devoted to the study of the conceptual components of terminological concepts for disability denotation in modern Turkish. The paper investigates the specifics of terms for the designation of people with disabilities, their semantic component and the connotation they function with in different discourses and are used with in different communicative situations. It analyses the process of the influence of the negative connotation of the terminological concept on the change of the terminological apparatus and the creation of a new substitute term, which has no negative meaning. Additionally, it outlines the problems of terminological disorganization and finding the equivalent in the translation of lexemes for the designation of people with disabilities.
Keywords: term, disability, person with a disability, terminological concept, Turkish language.
