The focal points of the study are the issues concerning Brazilian ethnoculture scrutiny and the means of its verbalisation in fictional texts. The study is devoted to the problems of ethnocultural code identification and description. It is carried out within multidisciplinary approach and with special software application in order to verify the preliminary outcomes. The criteria for cultural and ethnocultural codes differentiation are suggested, the author's methodology of philological research into ethnocultural codes and complex verification of the results obtained is tested. The data was obtained from the corpora of precedent Brazilian novels, published in the first quarter of the 20 th century (1902–1922s). This period of Brazilian literature is called Pre-Modernism, it has insufficiently been studied by Russian researchers as of yet. The results of social-and-humanitarian expertise and linguistic analysis as well as quantitative characteristics have enabled the author to reveal and describe ethnocultural code, which is contained in Brazilian fictional texts of the first quarter of the 20 th century. This code is shown as a structure, which is comprised of the ethnocultural codes of sertões, Bahia, race, space, and religion. The thematic groups of lexical units that verbalize each of the above-mentioned codes are characterized, the peculiarities of their functioning in the texts are identified.

The paper concerns the linguistic units that nominate objects, actions, concepts related to the process of fishing in Russian folk dialects that exist on the territory of Mordovia. The specificity of nominative processes associated with the fixation of a linguistically significant fact in the language is determined. The study is conducted on the material of the Dictionary of Russian subdialects in the territory of the Republic of Mordovia. It has been established that two main groups of names are actively used in Russian dialects: ichthyonyms, or different types of fish; various devices used for fishing. The largest group consists of ichthyonyms that name fish species. They show region fauna variability of aquatic representatives, point out the factors, which constitute the basis for their nomination, reveal the features of fish that are important in the dialect community. It has been determined that among the recorded numerous names of various fishing tackle used by a person in the process of fishing, fishing nets are the most diverse in the Russian dialects of Mordovia. The study has shown that different types of dialectisms can be distinguished in the composition of the fishing vocabulary, namely: the most common are proper lexical dialectisms, the roots of which have no correspondences in the national language, national words that have different meanings in a dialect system, referred to as lexico-semantic dialectisms, are also actively used. Most of the described words are unambiguous, but there are also solitary polysemantic lexemes. Derived meanings of a word in a dialect environment appear, as a rule, on the basis of an anthropomorphic or material metaphor.

The article is devoted to the description of the linguistic codes of two sister cities – Volgograd and Sevastopol. The coinciding names of linear objects situated in two cities constitute the object of the study. The names are indicated in the official documents of Volgograd City Administration and Sevastopol Department of Architecture and Urban Planning. The undertaken analysis resulted in identification of considerable quantity of similar names. The hodonyms of symbolic, vegetative and anthropogenic linguistic codes were found to have major similarity, which is largely due to the tendency to avoid ideological, historical and personal reference, and assign neutral names to new linear objects. Minor matches occur in hodonyms that realize material, social-and-collective linguistic codes. The nominations that actualize the material code follow the tendency of assigning ideologically unmarked names. The historical heritage of the Soviet Union accounts for the coincidence of names that implement the social-and-collective code. The fewest matches were found in the topographic, memorative (both individual and group) code and names denoting professional activities. This is stipulated by different geographical conditions in which the settlements are located, and their economies. The memorative code also differs substantially and reflects the citizens' striving to commemorate historical figures, military units and other unions that had significant impact on each of the cities. The study carried out has enabled the author to identify the hodonyms, which demonstrate ambiguity in realizing some linguistic codes.

The paper addresses the problems of toxic communications in the workplace and considers lexical and grammatical means of expressing emotions. The material for the study was former workers' comments and anonymous questionnaires completed by current employees of Russian enterprises. Based on empirical data processed under Fisher's angular transformation method, which enabled highly accurate comparison of small samples, three toxic communication zones in industry were identified: the zones of toxic bosses, toxic management, and toxic workers. The authors performed a Likert scale survey of executives, managers, and workers. The results of single-factor and two-factor analysis of variance helped us to establish the relation between toxic communication and so-called toxicity focuses, that is, standard topics which are constantly in the centre of destructive communications in the workplace. The paper determines lexical and grammatical means of expressing emotions which are emotive markers of toxic communication (affectives and connotatives). It shows that abusive words and phrases, zoolexics, vernacular and slang vocabulary, colloquial emotionally colored vocabulary, and phraseological units are equally relevant for all three zones of toxic communication zones. Quantitative analysis of the identified emotive markers in terms of their structural and morphological characteristics revealed the abundance of interjections, nouns, adjectives, and adverbs of degree and intensity.

The article examines the dynamic processes in the sphere of subcultural language nomination and their socio-cultural conditionality. The research is carried out on the material that has not been previously considered in the dynamic aspect (slang of football fans, hip-hop culture, and k-pop representatives), new words of student slang are involved, the dynamics of which is currently studied unsystematically. The replenishment of the lexicon of these subcultures is revealed in the projection of modern material on the slang dictionaries of the past years. In the course of the study, the thematic dominants in the field of slang innovations were identified (names of representatives of subcultures and their idols, names of types of subcultural activities and their products). Among the main socio-cultural factors that led to updating the vocabulary of subcultures, transformations in the higher education system (student slang), youth music fashion (slang of the subcultures of k-pop and hip-hop), rotation of players in the team (slang of football fans) were noted. The lexicon of musical subcultures is replenished mainly by transliterated borrowings. The slang of students and football fans is updated due to the native language resources used by nominators in acts of univerbation, abbreviation, suffix word formation. In these areas, the special productivity of the nomination game techniques (phonetic mimicry, structural and semantic phraseological transformations) was noted, which indicates a high level of linguistic creativity of slang speakers.

The article presents the study of word-building, semantic, motivational, syntagmatic, and functional characteristics of non-usual neonominations that appeared in 2005 and have been used in Russian-language Internet communication since that time to the present, denoting the objects of social reality that are either approved or disapproved. The performed analysis has made it possible to identify internationalization, intensification, intellectualization and integration as current trends in the creative neologization of this semantic area. The most productive methods of non-usual word formation in the studied lexical subset include blending, lexicalization of an abbreviation, stem truncation; less frequent – holophrasis, graphics, the inclusion of a foreign component in the centaur word; rarely used – reduplication, tmesis, anagram, stepwise way of word formation, pluralization, creation; irrelevant – the emancipation of the morpheme, the spillage of the word. It is shown that a most creative reaction of Internet users is caused by disapproved objects of reality with a variety of rejected socially significant features; their neonominations are used in contexts with a dominant negative average tone. The dominant regular sphere of functioning of neolexemes, which are formed in unusual ways with the semantics of disapproval/approval are such genres of Internet communication as social networks, blogs and forums. Protologisms, even with a transparent internal form and a readable motivation, are rarely conventionalized. Most of the unusual neonominations of unacceptable/acceptable objects of social reality can be attributed to transnominatives, whose nominative purpose is secondary.

The paper deals with the actual issues of regional onomastic space. The names of linear hydro objects – rivers flowing through the territory of the Adyghe Republic are in the focus of consideration. The variety of Adyghe stems and formants, which constitute hydronyms, is represented. The models of such nominations coining are characterized, their productivity is identified. The analysis of etymological, cultural, and ethnolinguistic aspects has enabled the author to conclude that the Adyghe toponyms mostly retained the internal form and connection with the objects that served as the source of nominations. The semantic types of designations, including "nature", "man", "landmark in space" have been identified. As a result of the analysis, it was found that the hydronyms of Adyghe Republic represent a certain system of names that reflected the ethnolinguistic picture of the world and the place of a person in it. A comprehensive analysis resulted in structuring the hydronymic space of the region, taking into account systemic relations and interrelations within the subsystem. All hydronyms are combined into a toponymic field, the core of which is topobases, the most frequent in hydronyms and oikonyms derived from them and having the widest semantics. In the center there are units formed according to three semantic types and to productive word-formation models. On the periphery of the field under consideration, there are hydronyms formed on the basis of archaic derivational formants, roots according to unproductive derivational models, but their reference to the selected semantic types is preserved. The suggested approach to the study of hydronyms is applicable to other classes of toponyms, which include the names, traditionally associated with the regional landscape and comprising the regional onomastic field.

The article analyzes the category of relations, establishes its place among other categories. Comprehension of the essence of the stated category opens up wide perspectives for studying complex synergetic processes of discourse system transformation. This determines the relevance of this issue. The objective of the research is to identify the features and aspects of the category of relations, which further lay the basis for the formation of the functional relations and functional space of discourse. Particular attention is paid to functional discourse relations. To characterize them, the author delves into the study of sense relations, which are considered from three main angles: syntagmatic, paradigmatic and derivational. Discourse senses create different types of discursive relations, which, in turn, affect the formation of the functional plane of discourse. It is emphasized that the process of functional discursive relations formation is conditioned by the communicative situation, the cognitive system of the communicants, their social and cultural background. It is concluded that formation of adequate discursive senses corresponding the communicative situation and its goals determines the construction of certain discourse functional relations, which as well affect the transformation of the senses and dynamics of discourse functional system. Discourse sense system formation is a complex multifaceted process implying interdependence and interaction of the senses and relations of discourse. Relations are a discourse-organizing factor, since they contribute to structuring the integral sense plane of discourse.

The article touches upon a relevant linguistic problem of representation of knowledge about a person in the word semantics. The object of the study is Belarusian and English verbs denoting the movement of a person. The author uses a complex method to reveal implicatory semantic features in the verb meaning, including conceptual analysis and modelling of the situation of movement, component analysis of meaning on the material of dictionary definitions, contextual analysis of concordance examples from national text corpora (COCA, Belarusian N-corpus). As a result of the study, several inferential schemes were identified. These schemes reflect the combining patterns of differential semantic features in the core of verb meaning (movement parameters) and implicatory features of person's characteristics: "direction of movement – person's desire, intention", "body posture – social evaluation", "speed – energy, emotion", "purpose – morality, will". The presented schemes of inferential knowledge, as well as the characteristics of a person that were identified in the meanings of the verbs of movement during the research, serve as a semantic basis for verbs of movement to implement a characterizing function in speech: a description of movement in a certain manner induces a characteristic image of a person. The results of the study proved the hypothesis that some knowledge about a person as a performer of the designated movement is stored in the implicational of the verb meaning. This knowledge becomes the target for inference based on the associative links between the differential components of meaning in the verbs of movement.
本文探讨了在词语义中关于人的知识表示的相关语言学问题。该研究的对象是白俄罗斯语和英语动词,表示一个人的运动。作者运用了一种复杂的方法来揭示动词意义的隐含语义特征,包括对运动情境的概念分析和建模,对词典定义材料的意义成分分析,以及对国家文本语料库(COCA, belarus n -语料库)中一致性例子的语境分析。作为研究的结果,确定了几个推论方案。这些图式反映了“运动方向-人的欲望、意图”、“身体姿势-社会评价”、“速度-能量、情感”、“目的-道德、意志”等动词意义核心差异语义特征与人的特征隐含特征的结合模式。本文提出的推理知识图式,以及在研究过程中从动作动词的意义中识别出的人的特征,为动作动词在言语中实现表征功能提供了语义基础:以某种方式描述动作,就会产生一个人的特征形象。研究结果证明了一个假设,即关于一个人作为指定动作的表演者的一些知识储存在动词含义的暗示中。基于动作动词中不同意义成分之间的联想联系,这种知识成为推理的目标。

The object of the study is Belarusian and English verbs denoting the movement of a person. The author uses a complex method to reveal implicatory semantic features in the verb meaning, including conceptual analysis and modelling of the situation of movement, component analysis of meaning on the material of dictionary definitions, contextual analysis of concordance examples from national text corpora (COCA, Belarusian N-corpus). As a result of the study, several inferential schemes were identified. These schemes reflect the combining patterns of differential semantic features in the core of verb meaning (movement parameters) and implicatory features of person's characteristics: \"direction of movement – person's desire, intention\", \"body posture – social evaluation\", \"speed – energy, emotion\", \"purpose – morality, will\". The presented schemes of inferential knowledge, as well as the characteristics of a person that were identified in the meanings of the verbs of movement during the research, serve as a semantic basis for verbs of movement to implement a characterizing function in speech: a description of movement in a certain manner induces a characteristic image of a person. The results of the study proved the hypothesis that some knowledge about a person as a performer of the designated movement is stored in the implicational of the verb meaning.

The article examines the history of appearance of the term "umlaut" in the terminology of Russian linguistics. Using the methods of historical-linguistic, definitional and semantic analysis of scholarly and scientific-theoretical sources (grammars, grammar treatises and dictionaries) published in Russia in the period from the late 18 th century to the mid 20 th century, the author traces the evolution of the phonetic status of umlaut. It was ascertained that in the 18 th century, in line with the traditions, established by the German grammarians, umlaut was first considered a diphthong, since it was widely believed to be a combination of two sounds pronounced together. It is shown that in the late 18 th century, the approach to the evaluation of the umlaut's status begins to change. This is to be explained by the change of scientific and linguistic paradigm in Russian linguistics. The facts of terminological variation are revealed and characterized. In the course of its existence, the term "umlaut", which entered Russian linguistic terminology only by the end of the first third of the 20 th century, received several one-word or compound names: "ogolosok" (1799), "peremena glasnykh" (vowel change) (1844), "perezvuk" (1845), "pereglasovka" (1857), "sliyaniye glasnykh" (vowel fusion) (1864), "izmeneniye glasnykh" (vowel mutation) (1871), "pereglasovaniye" (1882), "suzhivaniye glasnykh" (vowel narrowing) (1895). Until now, only the synonym "pereglasovka" has been preserved.
