The article is devoted to the study of the linguopragmatic means of self-identification of a modern woman in the feministic English-language film discourse (translational aspect). Gender relations are present in language in the form of culturally conditioned stereotypes that leave an imprint on the process of verbalization depending on the gender of the individual and on the process of his linguistic socialization. In the process of verbalization, the character’s image becomes a category of linguistic consciousness, from which it enters into new associative connections. In the theory of gender, each of the sexes is assigned a set of certain roles in society, as well as personal qualities that play an important role in creating a prototype of male and female in public and individual consciousness. In the analyzed film texts, a number of lexical oppositions were found, which are a kind of projection of gender oppositions – that is, oppositions of stereotypical ideas about what masculinity (man) is and what femininity (woman) is. It is interesting that stereotypical ideas about gender, which exist in the language in the form of oppositions, are practically not explicitly presented in the analyzed film texts. Basically, they are implemented in an implicit, associative (that is, more or less hidden) form. The material of analysis in the work was a feature film that tells about the life and career path of Coco Chanel. The film “Coco Chanel” and the film “Sex and the City”, which depicts female friendship between four female friends. The presence of a gender component in the film text depends on the use of certain linguistic means that can strengthen or weaken the “male/female” dichotomy. The application of the general criteria for the analysis of English language means in the research allows to reveal the peculiarities of the linguistic implementation of modern gender models of behavior. That is why, the study of femininity includes a description of the stereotypes associated with them and the means of formal expression of these stereotypes in the language in the translation aspect.

The article defines the concept of “Internet meme”, analyzes its main characteristics, defines the main types, describes the methodology of content analysis of memes. The purpose of this study is to carry out a computer content analysis of memes, to identify their features, and to determine their functions. Researchers analyzed 240 Internet memes about the Russian-Ukrainian war in 2022. Ukrainian social networks were used as the source of memes, the sampling period: from February to October 2022. The sample included memes of the content-image type with a verbal component (creolized memes) or without it (graphic memes). Content analysis was carried out using MAXQDA software. The system of categories (codes) – formal and content – was developed. The formal categories of memes include the following: meme type, meme language, communication levels, topic. The content codes include vocabulary with such subcodes, as standard vocabulary, substandard vocabulary. The analysis of memes with the help of formal categories showed that the most often occurred memes used in social networks are memes on military topic, which contain a verbal component in Ukrainian on the level of communication or some captions or inserts. The analysis of memes about the Russian-Ukrainian war on the lexical level showed that almost half of them contain substandard elements, among which ethnic slurs and obscenities dominate. Euphemisms and neologisms often create a satirical effect. The article also defines the following functions of memes: entertaining, anti-stress, expressive, pragmatic, ethnic, identification, epistemological, of collective involvement. Verbal and visual components of creolized memes do not compete, but complement each other. The perspective of this study is the analysis of humorous techniques in verbal memes.

The purpose of the article is to reveal the features of the study of relict Paleo-Balkan languages in their connection with other Indo-European languages in linguistics of the second half of the XIX century – the beginning of the XXI century. It is noted that when identifying a group of Paleo-Balkan languages, a single criterion has not yet been clearly established: both areal and genetic principles are involved. At the same time the material of Paleo-Balkan languages is not fully taken into account in the genealogical classification of Indo-European languages; if Thracian, Phrygian, and Illyrian languages are included in this classification as separate groups, then the place of old Macedonian, “Pelasgian”, and other Paleo-Balkan languages in the classification is not defined. In addition, the traditional genealogical classification does not take into account the special proximity of Paleo-Balkan languages to Armenian, Albanian and Ancient Greek. The discovery and study of Paleo-Balkan languages are briefly described. The connections of Paleo-Balkan languages with Albanian, Armenian, Ancient Greek, Hittite, Luvian, Baltic, Germanic, Slavic and Indo-Iranian languages are revealed. The author of the article focuses on the fact that Paleo-Balkan languages are mainly reconstructed at the phonological, lexical, derivational levels (to a lesser extent – at the morphological and syntactic levels), although due to the limited and uneven corresponding data, such reconstruction is also limited, and in some cases contradictory. From the point of view of Indo-Europeanists, lexical elements of Paleo-Balkan origin are recorded in modern Albanian, Greek, Bulgarian, Romanian and Armenian. The article emphasizes that Paleo-Balcanistics provided significant factual material important for substrate theory and contributed to the development of the linguistic stratigraphy method.

Frontal study of Slavic studies of the 19th century – 30s of XX century testified: the problem of the relationship between vocalism and consonantism in the history of Slavic languages (based on Ukrainian language material) was presented by the Ukrainian linguist Pavlo Zhytetskyi. P. Zhytetskyi put forward a concept within which each considered phonological phenomenon occupies a certain, logically justified place; it is organically included in the general concept, derives from it. According to P. Zhytetskyi, a certain phonological change (the decline of reduced vowels) is the cause of a number of other phonological changes: the decline of reduced vowels as a key process in the «prehistory» and history of the phonological systems of East Slavic languages causes a «chain reaction» in the corresponding vocal and consonant subsystems. P. Zhytetskyi’s thesis that in Slavic languages and their history «poor» vocalism is combined with «rich» consonantism and vice versa, laid the foundations of the historical typology of Slavic languages (on the phonological level) and proved to be very productive in linguistics of the 20th century. It became the basis for the division of Slavic languages into two types – vocalic and consonantal, which were interpreted both in the synchronic and in the diachronic aspect (А. Isachenko, K. Gorshkova, V. Ivanov, V. Kolesov). P. Zhytetskyi reconstructed systems of archetypes and systems of phonetic laws with a similar mechanism (united by a common cause). Thanks to this, the history of the phonetic system of the Ukrainian language in the interpretation of P. Zhytetskyi appears as a chain of causally connected phonetic processes at the level of subsystems (vocalism and consonantism) and signs of sounds (strength and weakness, deafness and sonority, hardness and softness of consonants). This led to the fact that the concept of the connection between vocalism and consonantism in the history of the Ukrainian language by P. Zhytetskyi retained its relevance in comparative-historical and typological linguistics of the 20th century – the beginning of the 21st century.

The article deals with the algorithm and methodology of analysis of military terminology as a forming factor of military terminology system and military discourse. The study of the cognitive-pragmatic aspects as well as basic characteristics of terminology as the factor which forms military terminological systems and military/war discourses in languages with different structures (Ukrainian, Persian and English) within the paradigm: term – terminological system – discourse contributes to the actuality of this research. The purpose of our research was to give the algorithm and methodology of analysis of military terminology as a forming factor of modern military terminological system and military/war discourse. The tasks of the current research were to outline the main specific method and approaches to the problem, to make an attempt to classify military terminology according to the pragmatic principle. The terms are viewed as instruments of structuring chaos in the period of new social changes. New terms of military / war discourse serve new needs of the society, become the instruments of social interaction, expand the sphere of military concepts, etc. As a professional language, military terminology provides a new matrix of perception by means of which new global changes can be interpreted.
