SUMMARY

The purpose of the article is to analyze the materials collected in the Odesa Literary Museum regarding the stay in Odesa and the Northern Black Sea Region of authoritative Polish literary figures of the late 18th and 19th centuries, their assessments of the city and its inhabitants, and the role of Odesa in the life and work of these cultural figures. The object of study is part of the museum’s exposition and some rare materials from the museum’s collections, which relate to the life and work in Odesa of writers of the 19th century who left a noticeable mark on Polish literature and history. The subject of the study is the place and role of Odesa and the Northern Black Sea Region in the work of these writers. As a result of the conducted research, certain assessments were made of the participation of Adam Mickiewicz, Franciszek Malewski, Juliusz Słowacki, Alexander Jełowicki, Józef Kraszewski, as well as a number of other Polish writers, including Stanisław Trembecki, Henryk Rzewuski, Tadeusz Czacki, Zygmunt Miłkowski (Tomasz Jeż), Michał Grabowski, Seweryn Goszczyński, Bohdan Zaleski, Maurycy Gosławski, Gustaw Olizar, Tomasz Padurra, Henryk Sienkiewicz in the cultural and social life of the city of Odesa and the Odesa region. Some facts of the influence of their stay in Odessa on the work of these writers were revealed. Rare printed exhibits from the museum’s collection were indicated. The conclusions are drawn that the international business and resort Odesa has in some way influenced the life and work of many public and cultural figures of the Polish people, helping them to expand their knowledge in science, economics, history, and social life. The practice of developing literary local history has considerable educational value in the assessment by the residents of the region of its cultural and historical significance in the life of the country.

Key words: literary local history, Polish literature, historical and cultural significance, regional studies, the city of Odesa, the Northern Black Sea Region, the Odesa Literary Museum.

SUMMARY

The article examines the phenomenon of ekphrasis in English- language dream reports, drawing on a cognitive approach to intermediality and the verbal representation of visual experience. Based on a corpus of over 60,000 user-generated dream reports from dreamjournal.net (over 22 million words), the study traces how features of artistic ekphrasis, typically associated with literary discourse, emerge and are reinterpreted within the specific context of dream narration. The paper introduces the concept of oneiric ekphrasis—a verbal representation of relatively static visual dream images perceived by the dreamer as aesthetic or art-like. Using a corpus-based methodology, the study identifies patterns of linguistic realization and classifies the main types of such descriptions. Concordance analysis of the lemma ‘painting’ yielded four main categories of oneiric ekphrasis: static and dynamic, as well as visual and synesthetic. The findings reveal characteristic cognitive tendencies, including the instability and fluidity of visual imagery, narrator metareflection, intermedial blending of modalities, and reliance on cultural precedents. Ekphrasis in dream narratives is thus interpreted as a cognitive operation of recoding internal visual representations into verbal form, extending the traditional understanding of ekphrasis from a depiction of an artistic object to a mode of thinking and imagining. It is concluded that dreams, due to their high visual and emotional intensity, often generate narrations that resemble aesthetic or artistic descriptions, where the dreamer acts not only as a storyteller but also as an intermedial translator and interpreter of their own imaginative experience.

Key words: ekphrasis, oneiric experience, intermediality, cognitive linguistics

SUMMARY

The article examines the features of English phraseological units in the legal sphere of use. It also analyzes the functioning of phraseological units in legal English, their stability and variability.
The aim of the study is to analyze some phraseological units used in the field of legal discourse. At this stage, our task is to prove the presence of expressive coloring in formalized legal English.
The study used the method of linguistic description of phraseological units, including the methods of observation, interpretation and generalization, as well as methods of analysis of dictionary definitions of phraseological units and methods of structural- semantic, component, contextual analysis. To identify the meaning of phraseological units in legal discourse that is actualized in the process of communication was used the method of functional and discursive analysis. As a result of the study, we came to the conclusion that phraseological units in the legal discourse of the English language reflect cultural traditions, history, and attitudes toward the law among representatives of the Anglo- Saxon culture. In legal discourse, phraseological units perform the function of an intermediary between communicants. Phraseological units are an integral part of legal discourse and represent further study from the point of view of discursive, cognitive, semantic, and pragmatic approaches. Further study of phraseological units of legal discourse is of interest from the point of view of improving mutual understanding between communicants from different cultural and legal systems. The study of territorial and historical variability of phraseological units is the result of linguo-legal processes and can rightfully take its place among linguocultural studies.

Key words: idioms/phraseologisms, phraseological units, foreign language, field of use.

SUMMARY

The mechanisms of intonation models variation while interpreting attitudes in English are under discussion. A complex analysis of attitudinal intonation patterns polysemy from the point of view of its semantics and functions has been carried out.
The phenomena of polysemy, synonymy, antonymy, etc. are analyzed in intonation means expressing modal meaning. This characteristic, typical to lexical units of the language, is the evidence of the isomorphism different means of speech. The parallelism is not regarded as a complete analogy in the degree of correlation of vocabulary and intonation with semantics. The nature of correlation in these two cases is fundamentally different in quality and quantity.
Firstly, the lexeme in itself, nominally within the framework of a given language system, carries information about the semiological unit it describes, and often serves as the formal name of this unit. The intoneme does not carry nominal information about
the semiological unit; this connection can only be expressed indirectly
with the help of lexical means.
Secondly, the degree of study of the relationship between lexical and semiological units, on the one hand (exhaustively complete dictionaries reflecting different aspects of these connections), and between intonation and semiological units, on the other (fragmentary, unsystematized and often contradictory data on the semantic information of individual intonation models, regardless of the constitutive conditions of their functioning), is incommensurate.
Thirdly, the lexeme in speech is realized with the help of segmental means of the phonological system, and the variability of suprasegmental means does not affect the semantics of these units.
Intonation units are formed due to contrasts of suprasegmental means and their variability determines the semantics of intonemes.

Key words: attitudes, intonation, variation, polyfunctionality, polysemy.

SUMMARY

The article presents a comprehensive interdisciplinary analysis of the terms EDUTUBER / EDUTUBING, which reflect profound changes in educational communication and the emergence of new forms of pedagogical interaction in the context of digital transformation. The relevance of the study is due to the need for terminological normalization of these concepts in Ukrainian academic discourse, despite their active functioning in the global educational space. For this purpose, for the first time, the results of the research published in English, French and Spanish are introduced into Ukrainian academic space, which creates the basis for the integration of domestic science into the international context of digital pedagogy.
The authors highlighted the key characteristics of EDUTUBERS activities, in particular pedagogical effectiveness, communicative strategy, interactivity, and flexibility of content. The authors also determined some parameters of professionalization of the above- mentioned key characteristics as a new group of participants in educational process, combining teaching, digital and media competencies. The mentioned terms are studied as telescopic lexical neologisms of English origin, which actively function in digital educational discourse.
The morphological structure, semantic components and variability of graphic forms of terms (e.g., English edutuber, EduTuber, eduTuber, EDUTuber) are analyzed in three European languages (English, Spanish and French), which indicates an active stage of their formation. The authors substantiated the use of telescoping as a method of word formation and revealed the influence of sociolinguistic factors on the preservation of the English form in a foreign language environment.
Particular attention is paid to the functioning of terms as hashtags in YouTube space. The emphasis is on the frequency of the use of these terms in YouTube digital space, where the singular form EDUTUBER prevails, which indicates a tendency to personify educational activity. In the Ukrainian academic space, these terms remain unregulated, therefore, authors proposed several translation solutions adapted to the contexts of formal and informal education. The research has applied significance for digital pedagogy, lexicology, translation studies; its results will be useful in terminographic ordering of the newest lexical units.

Key words: EduTuber, EduTubing, digital pedagogy, content personification, neologisms, telescopy, Ukrainian scientific discourse, terminological standardization.

SUMMARY

The article focuses on the results of the translation analysis of English-language lexical units of the military sphere, selected by the method of continuous sampling from different types of texts, and the study of the pragmatic aspect of their translation into Ukrainian. It is emphasized that the problem of the functioning military vocabulary in texts of various genres is becoming increasingly relevant with the growing role of functional and anthropocentric approaches to the study of linguistic phenomena. It is stated that research on military vocabulary is increasingly characterized by interdisciplinary (linguocultural, sociolinguistic, semiotic directions, etc.), which is associated with the modern trend towards the interaction of different fields of knowledge and the search for new ways of deeper understanding linguistic phenomena. Military vocabulary is viewed as a specific layer of lexical units that serve a special branch of human activity – military affairs, covering military-applied terminology and emotionally colored lexical units. It is characterized by clarity, brevity and functions to serve the sphere of military activity, being actualized in intraprofessional genres (military journalism, military-scientific communication, military-didactic communication and documents of a regulatory nature) and performing a nominative, informative, representative, manipulative and emotionally-expressive function. The study showed that the reproduction of English-language military vocabulary in Ukrainian is a complex multi-level process, which involves not only the formal recoding of lexical units, but also taking into account their pragmatic potential. It is outlined that the pragmatic aspect of the translation of the studied vocabulary consists in ensuring adequate perception, accuracy of content transfer, compliance with communicative intentions and functional features of the text. The choice of translation strategy is determined by such pragmatic factors as: the context of use of the lexical unit, the genre of the text, the level of specialized knowledge of the recipient and the communicative goal.

Key words: military vocabulary, specialized language of the military branch, morphological method of word formation, syntactic method of word formation, military translation, translation transformations, pragmatic aspect of translation.

SUMMARY

The article analyzes the linguostylistic aspects of translating Leonard Cohen’s song “Hallelujah” as a polyfunctional linguistic construct that integrates poetic structure, musical rhythm, and cultural-semiotic codes. The aim is to identify the mechanisms that ensure emotional, prosodic, and semantic equivalence in cross- linguistic adaptation. Theoretically, the study draws on the typology of song translation (source- / transfer- / target-oriented approaches) and on the principles of intertextual, semiotic, and pragmatic analysis. Empirically, it outlines key zones of translational decision- making: rendering rhythm-melody patterns and refrains; transmitting biblical allusions and the symbolic opposition “sacred or profane”; balancing literal precision and emotional compensation; controlled compression and syntactic restructuring required for singability. It is demonstrated that successful adaptation depends on preserving rhythmic intention, intonational contour, and cognitive-affective impact, while lexical equivalence becomes functional rather than strictly denotative. The study substantiates the role of prosody as a trigger of suggestive force and as a carrier of emotional modality that shapes the listener’s receptive scenarios. It is shown that the variability of Cohen’s authorial strophe corpus generates open textual architectonics within which translation emerges as co-creation and cultural mediation. The scientific novelty lies in harmonizing rhythmic correspondence with pragmatic and symbolic equivalence; the practical significance is in formulating translation-quality criteria for song discourse (rhythmic coherence, emotional authenticity, intertextual transparency). The findings deepen the understanding of song translation as a cognitive-aesthetic process in which verbal and acoustic codes integrate into an unified mechanism of intercultural communication.

Key words: song translation, linguostylistic adaptation, rhythm- melody structure, biblical allusions, emotional equivalence, Leonard Cohen, “Hallelujah”.

SUMMARY

The authors of the article reveal the content of the comparative- historical method as a means of understanding linguistic history. By means of the comparative-historical method, comparativists uncover the laws that governed the development of related languages in the past, trace the evolution of these languages on the basis of their common origin from the proto-language (the basic language). This proto-language is reconstructed and hypothetically restored by scholars.
The structure of the comparative-historical method is characterized in the context of a broad interpretation of the linguistic method as a heterogeneous unit. Within the structure of the linguistic method three heterogeneous components are distinguished: ontological, teleological, and operational. The authors characterize such means within the ontological component as principle and approach. The teleological component of the linguistic method includes the aim of the research. The operational component consists of certain techniques and procedures.
Within the ontological component of the comparative- historical method are included the principles of historicism, causality, and systemicity as concretizations and manifestations of the principle of general connection of the phenomena, as well as historical, causal, and systemic approaches. Within the teleological component, the purpose of the research is interpreted in factual and methodological aspects. First, this is the reproduction of models of proto-linguistic states of families and groups of related languages, their further development and division into independent languages, as well as the creation of comparative-historical descriptions (grammars and dictionaries) of related languages. Second, the purpose of comparative-historical research may be presented as the disclosure of historical, causal, and systemic connections of linguistic facts, that is, as the realization of the principle of general connection of the phenomena on specific historical-linguistic material.
Considering the genesis and evolution of the comparative- historical method, the authors distinguish three stages of its history. Regarding the first stage (1820s–1860s), it is appropriate to speak of the emergence and formation of the comparative-historical method. The content of the second (classical) stage (the 1870s – the 1910s) is the development of the comparative-historical method and the systematization of comparative-historical material. The third stage (the 1920s – the 2020s) is characterized by the study of new languages, the incorporation of newly discovered ancient manuscripts (and, with the advent of printing, printed works), as well as the application of new research methods that complement the comparative-historical method.
The authors emphasize that during the 19th century and the early 20th century, the comparative-historical method was the leading method in linguistics. It remains relevant today.

Key words: comparative-historical method, comparative-historical linguistics (comparativistics), content, structure, genesis, evolution, ontological, operational and teleological components, ontological, operational and teleological components, genesis, evolution, stages.

SUMMARY

Tax texts, as an integral part of legal discourse, are an important tool for the implementation of the state fiscal policy. They are created in accordance with the norms of the legislative style, the main features of which are accuracy, unambiguity, formality and logical consistency. Tax law performs its regulatory function through the text, as it is the text that is the means of transmitting binding rules and regulations.
Tax documents in English and German are highly terminologically dense. The use of highly specialized concepts, legal and financial terms is inevitable, as they form the semantic core of the text. Terms such as tax liability or Steuervergünstigung often do not have full equivalents in Ukrainian, which makes it difficult to interpret them adequately. That is why it is important not only to know the terms, but also to understand the legal and cultural realities of the source languages.
Linguistically, tax texts are distinguished by neutral vocabulary, direct meaning of words, and the absence of emotionally colored expressions. The use of metaphors, hyperbole, and rhetorical devices is avoided. Impersonal constructions, infinitive and participial phrases, and complex sentences with logical subordination prevail. Such syntactic features ensure clarity of presentation and minimize the risk of ambiguous interpretation.
In addition, tax texts are characterized by a standardized structure, widespread use of clichés, formulas such as according to the provisions of the Act or gemдЯ § 34 EStG. The absence of emotionality, balanced tone, and formalized language ensure that the information is presented impartially and in compliance with legal norms.
Thus, the linguistic and stylistic features of tax texts in English and German are due to the need for accurate, logical and understandable formulation of legislative provisions governing tax legal relations within the respective legal systems.

Key words: tax texts, linguistic, term, term system, formalization.

SUMMARY

The article is devoted to the functional features of phraseological units in Ivan Bagryany’s novel ‘The Garden of Gethsemane’. It provides an overview of the theoretical foundations of Ukrainian phraseology studies; focuses on the semantics and expressiveness of Ukrainian phraseological units used by the author of the novel; analyses phraseological means of expressing fear in the novel; and characterises the functions of phraseological units in the novel.
The study of phraseological units is an exploration of the treasure trove of national connotations, as well as the specifics of the reflection of the national mentality in phraseology, which is one of the understudied problems of Ukrainian linguistics.

Key words: Ukrainian phraseology, phraseological unit, stylistics, semantics, expression.
