Key words: context, contextual method, Lexicology, Turkish Language, polysemy.

The relevance of the Turkish Language learning is substantiated in the article for many reasons. First, because of its prevalence in the whole world. Secondly, due to the huge number of lexical and stylistic features, such as context, polysemantic words, slang, dialects, colloquial words, phraseological units and their diversity. Thirdly, because of its morphological features and also thanks to another pleasant feature of the Turkish language, which is closely related to its clarity and conciseness.

The article defines the possibilities of the contextual method using in the Turkish language Lexicology studying. Such teaching methods as descriptive (for a general description of the context); contextual-interpretive (to identify the functional and semantic meaning of a word), as well as a method of creating a problem situation using a contextual task were used for achieving the goal. The essence of the term “context” is determined and the place of context in modern linguistics is considered. The emphasis was also placed on the problems of general Lexicology, which allow the use of contextual analysis and substantiated the primary role of the context in its different types in identifying meanings. The  lassification of the context is considered, namely the narrow context (microcontext)
and wide context (macrocontext).

The difficulties of translating words from Turkish and vice versa due to their ambiguity are stipulated. Context has been shown to understand the meaning of a word or phrase. It is a powerful weapon that sheds light on the meaning of unfamiliar and ambiguous words, and the semantic characteristics of the word are described, traced, studied and analyzed. They are based on a typical context. This feature is peculiar not only any foreign language, but to Turkish due to its emotional color and individuality.

Key words: conceptual picture of the world, moral and ethical discourse, dystopian novel, translation strategies, translation tactics, translation operations.

The article considers the problem of reflecting the picture of the world of English social dystopia and its moral and ethical component in the author’s idiosyncrasy, as well as ways of its reproduction in modern translation into Ukrainian. The urgency of this issue is dictated by the dynamism and variability of society, the processes of globalization and integration of states and nations, the need to find a common language in intercultural communication, solving common problems, finding compromises through faithful cross-cultural communication, interaction and cooperation. Within the framework of the research a comprehensive translation analysis was made, which allowed to outline the concepts related to the conceptual picture of the world and moral and ethical discourse of the dystopian novel, to find out and compare the features of authorial and translational transferring of the conceptual picture of the world in moral and ethical discourse in Ukrainian translation, as well as to characterize its tactical and strategic basis and translation operations.To reproduce the culturologically complicated, but conceptually important
components of the picture of the world in the dystopian novel, it is necessary to adhere to the principles of “flexibility” and “combinatoriality” in the selection of translation operations for faithful rendering of these components. It is established that the correctness and faithfulness of rendering of the conceptual picture of the world in the dystopian novel is possible due to the holistic-situational perception and translation of the original text, wide subject and rich background knowledge of the translator, his/her creative intuition, pragmatic adaptation of the source text using logical and semantic, cross-cultural and occasional ways of solving the problem
and adherence to an objective tactical and strategic approach in translation.

Key words: cultural-specific vocabulary, nationally marked words, nonequivalent vocabulary, reality.

The article deals with the ways and methods of cultural specific vocabulary in Mariia Skrypnyk`s translation of the novel On Sunday morning she gathered herbs by Olha Kobylianska in English. It was shown that different methods and means of translation should be combined for successful rendering of national coloring.The relevance of this work is based on the rapid development of Ukrainian culture, literature and economy on the world stage.The aim of the work is to study the peculiarities of the translation of cultural realities of the Ukrainian text.The research is based on the translation-comparative method, the comparative method, the method of translation analysis.Each language group has its own cultural and specific feature.It is established that the cultural-specific vocabulary includes realities, non-equivalent vocabulary, exclamations, proper names, geographical names. The following translation transformations were used for their transmission: transcription, transliteration, tracing, descriptive translation and explanations in the commentary. All these translation transformations are aimed at the successful transfer of nationally marked vocabulary and the preservation of the national colors of a certain nation.Despite the fact that many works by various scholars have been devoted to the translation of non-equivalent vocabulary, translators still have difficulty in conveying the meaning and understanding of realities. Accurate translation of national vocabulary is very important for understanding the text, especially fiction, because it is an important way of intercultural communication.For the successful reproduction of nationally marked vocabulary, the translator must have the necessary knowledge of the semantics and meaning of words in the original language.Because language is dynamic and can change quite rapidly, the translation of culturally specific vocabulary is an inexhaustible topic for research.

Key words: humor, humorous discourse, joke, comic, linguoculture, translation.

The article is devoted to the study of the features of reproducing English humor in the Ukrainian language. The relevance of the work is due to the urgent need for a comprehensive study of English-language humor as a text-discursive education and the features of its translation. The aim of the study is to analyze the specifics of reproducing English-language humor. As a result of the study, the author comes to the conclusion that the reproduction of English humorous discourse should take into account the national characteristics of the people, culture and traditions. Translation of humorous discourse requires the use of various transformations: lexical, grammatical (including syntactic and morphological), semantic, and stylistic. Often these types of transformations appear in a mixed form. The most effective transformations are: lexical, grammatical, and complex lexical and grammatical ones. The subject of research of this work is humor — the most common modern type of comic. The concept of humor is defined as a comprehensive phenomenon, a way of seeing, a way of life. The nature of humor depends on the linguistic and cultural characteristics of the country to which it belongs, which means that this phenomenon reproduces the national picture of the world. According to this, the translator should take into account the peculiarities of ethnic worldview in order to reproduce the content of discursive humorous education adequately. It is also necessary to be able to know at least something about the cultures involved in the translation in order to understand the original and be able to reproduce it. During the analysis, we determined that it is necessary to take into account the national nature of humor, because in different societies the same thing can cause different reactions, which leads to inadequate units of reproduction of the source language to the target language. Based on the fact that it is not always possible to fully reproduce the content and expressive-emotional coloring, compensation is considered the best lexical and semantic means of transmitting humor in the source language in the translation language. A necessary condition for translation is the selection of appropriate phonetic, lexical and phraseological means for transmitting not only the semantics of the humorous formation of the original language, but also their expressive and functional features.

Key words: translation studies, interrogative constructions, translation strategies, tactics and devices.

The article is dedicated to the problem urgent both for general linguistics and translation studies. In the focus of the analysis there are linguistic means of rendering English interrogative constructions in Ukrainian translation, as well as the study of the main translation strategies, tactics and devices. It has been concluded that the dominant one is the strategy of communicatively relevant translation, while the most widely occurred tactics are the tactic of rendering relevant information, the tactic of correct presentation and the tactic of linguistic and cultural adaptation. The analysis of the translation devices has revealed the predominance of such devices as contextual replacement, transposition, change of syntactic type, as for the complex devices — antonymous translation and the technique of semantic development. The perspective of the research is seen in the study of the peculiarities of rendering other communicative types in translation.

Key words: fairytale, categories, translation strategies, translation tactics, translation operations, communicatively equivalent translation strategy.

The article is devoted to the problems and difficulties that arise in the process of translating Ukrainian folk tales into English. Particular attention is paid to the translation of spatio-temporal categories, as they are an integral part of the linguistic picture of the world of each nation, which is reflected in their folklore. The problem of interpretation of the philosophical categories “space” and “time” has a long history. Different researchers have interpreted them differently, building their theories in philosophy, physics, mathematics, linguistics. This problem is not solved today in any of these areas of knowledge, so it is relevant and needs further study. In addition, the transfer of national identity of the original text is still not a simple but interesting task for translators, because the question of the nature, types of realities and methods of their translation remain to be open. Every translator must be able to apply the full range of linguistic and extralinguistic knowledge to translate the national color of the original during translation.

The aim of the work is to analyze translation tactics and operations in English translations of Ukrainian folk tales.

The research was carried out on the material of Ukrainian folk tales “The brother, the sister and the Devil Dragon”, “Ivanko, Tsar of the beasts”, “The poor man and his sons”, “Ivan-not-a-stitch-on and his brother”, “Ivan the dragon killer”, “The seven brothers — seven ravens and their sister”, “Ivan the bohatyr”, “Ivan the peasant’s son”, and their translation by Irina Zheleznova.

We divided each of the selected fairy tales into three parts (in order to simplify
the analysis of the text): initial, medial and final. In each of these parts, topographic and chronological formulas were identified. Then, by a comparative analysis, we determined the tactics and translation operations, which the translator used during her translation into English.

On translating the all fairy tales into English, the translator used the strategy of communicatively equivalent translation. For this, the translator used the tactics of transferring relevant information, the tactics of pragmatic adaptation of the text, the tactics of reproducing the stylistic textual characteristics, the tactics of correct information formatting and the tactics of reproducing the formal-structural textual characteristics.

More often, fairy tales were translated by using an equivalent match search.

Key words: tourist discourse, English, Ukrainian, translation, comparative analysis, advertising discourse, advertising text, characteristics of advertising text.

The article reveals the concept of tourist discourse, provides its main parameters and characteristics, as well as, through comparative analysis, analyzes examples reflecting the features of tourist advertising texts in English and Ukrainian. It is difficult to imagine the existence of a modern person without travel related to professional activities, recreation, the search for new sensations and many other aspects of human existence. In one area, different cultures are not suppressed as much as in tourism. In the field of tourism business, advertising is spreading rather quickly and widely, thanks to the unrelenting interest in tourism services. So, great attention should be paid to the study of the phenomenon of advertising text, and in particular the problems of its translation.

Analysis of modern literature has shown that we can talk about the existence of the so-called language of tourism, is universal and does not depend on a specific language. Also, some authors have developed a concept of algorithmic translation of tourist texts, which includes several sequential stages.

The results of the study showed that tourism discourse is a subtype of advertising discourse, which contains a number of universal characteristics inherent in texts written in such diverse languages as English and Ukrainian. Among such characteristics are: the use of the imperative mood, comparative and superlative degrees of comparison of adjectives, the choice of emotionally colored, positive vocabulary in order to influence the potential consumer of travel services. The findings can be applied in translation practice when working with texts of tourism
discourse, as well as in further research.

Key words: linguistic-pragmatic aspect of translation, text, translation transformations, extralinguistic and paralinguistic features of translation, translation operations.

The research is devoted to the study of the peculiarities of the lingvo-pragmatic aspect of translation and is presented on the example of an English-language television series of medical focus called “House, M. D.” and its translation, analysis of various types of transformations, definition of the specifics of the translation and its sequence. The relevance of the topic presented is based on the need for a detailed study of the lexical, grammatical, syntactic, extralinguistic, paralinguistic features of the translation of English-language films. This topic is important for both Ukrainian and foreign translators, because it is necessary to know the basic subtleties and unforeseen situations in the translation process in order to overcome them as best as possible and achieve a highquality and adequate result. Also, the relevance of this topic contributes to the improvement of the level of professional activity of both interpreters and translators.

The aim of the study is to evolve the specifics of the use of translation aids and translation operations for adequate reproduction of English-language medical films.

The studied type of the text is characterized, certain difficulties in translation are highlighted, the difference between the texts of the English and Ukrainian languages from a grammatical point of view, lexical inequality are noted, various ways of revealing emotionality and expressiveness as an auxiliary tool of human communication are noted. The expediency of using translation transformations has been determined and the most common of them are quantitatively presented.

Key words: informative text type, business documentation, invitation text, linguistic manifestation, transformation.

The relevance of the chosen topic can be explained by the rapid expansion of the international relations of Ukraine with other states, the trends towards the country’s integration into educational and scientific European and world spaces.
This fact leads to an increase in the volume of business documents in this area and determines the search for the optimal rendering all substantive and formal parameters of the Ukrainian business documents into English, the language of international communication.

The aim of the study is to identify the specifics of the translation of the modern Ukrainian business documents into English.

The results of the study prove grammatical translation transformations to be the most frequent ones, which make up 90 % of all stated translation techniques. Replacements of the parts of speech are quite common within the framework of the material under study, which make up 35 %. Replacement of the parts of speech in most cases causes another type of replacement, namely, replacement of the parts of the sentence, which makes 30 % of the cases (syntactic restructuring). The second place is occupied by transposition (10 %). The least frequent transformations in the translation of the texts of the Ukrainian invitations into English are syntactic assimilation (literal translation), sentences merging and splitting (5 % each). Lexical translation transformations also make up an insignificant part (10 %) of the total number of the specified transformations.

The linguistic manifestation of the translation of the studied type of the text is focused primarily on the target language, since it is important to render the informative content in the regular language form.
