ANALYSIS OF LINGVOCULTURAL PHRASES IN THE MEDIATEXT

2019 ◽  
pp. 78-86

The article deals with the analysis of cultural linguistic phrases in the media text. Mass information plays an important role in the continuation of language operations. This is determined by the qualitative changes in the general linguistic culture, and not only by the changes that have occurred due to the introduction of new information technologies. One of the most important issues facing modern linguistics is the study of functional methods of speech, the definition of their language features, the disclosure of the functional features of language units in the style of speech and their division into language facts. It is well known that the phrase is a product of the second nomination, which directly reflects the national mentality and worldview of the nation. In other words, phrases are also one of the main sources for accepting and preserving national cultural information, because the reflection of phrases is part of the national norm. The cognitive tendency, which is part of linguistic research, not only uses cognitive abilities, but also realizes the cultural meaning of the formulated phrase. In the linguistic direction, phrases served as objects for several studies. Taking this into account, the author of the article gives examples of phrases in the media that are unique to culture.

Annotation. Introduction. In today’s rapidly evolving Internet, new opportunities are emerging for scientific communication among scientists around the world. The dissemination of scientific ideas in society through the media is a daily norm abroad. In Ukraine, the attitude of the research community towards the promotion of scientific research still raises many questions: it is rather wary. For the even development of Ukrainian science, scientists need to cover the results of their work to a wide audience, communicate with press services and journalists and disseminate their ideas in society. With the emergence of new more effective ways and forms of scientific communication through Internet resources and relevant platforms, the creation of new information and scientific technologies, there is a need for state support of scientific activities, communication in Ukraine and ensuring the appropriate level of copyright protection of these scientists, developers etc. Purpose. The main purpose of the study is to monitor the state and trends of scientific communication in Ukraine in modern conditions and to develop recommendations for its further development. Results. The analysis of development of scientific communication in Ukraine is carried out. The definition of the concept of scientific communication is indicated. The process of scientific communication is schematically presented. The most common classification of scientific communication is given. The significance of the created National Research Fund of Ukraine for scientists and science in general is noted. The dynamics of the number of employees involved in the implementation of research and development, who have the degree of Doctor of Science and Doctor of Philosophy. The analysis of the employees number by level of education is involved in the implementation of research and development. Conclusions. We are convinced that the improvement of the support mechanism for Ukrainian science, scientists and scientists by the state will help to minimize the possible risks and dangers associated with copyright infringement and the decline of domestic science in general. Keywords: scientific communication; communicant; communicator; recipient.

The article deals with scientific approaches to understanding the notion of «technical and criminalistic support for investigation of crimes», and offers its own definition of this notion. It focuses on the fact that the introduction of new information technologies in pre-trial investigation practices is a contributor to the improved investigation efficiency and crime prevention. The article suggests developing an automated computer system called «Counteracting corruption» as one of the ways to improve technical and criminalistic supportfor investigation of crimes as well as the introduction of the latest information technologies, it can be used as a means to boost the investigator’s intellectual activity in planning, suggesting investigation versions, choosing the optimal systems of investigation (search) actions. The structure of the abovementioned software includes two blocs: resource bloc and consultation bloc. The former bloc consists of general background information represented with respect to corruption crime categories, the latter can include data on the optimal organization of investigating into such crimes.

The article views a circle of issues connected with the responsibility of contemporary work of media for the quality of information. The metalanguage actual for the new Russian media sphere is generalized. All types of up-to-date information resources are viewed and classified. The types and forms of their content variation are analysed. Special attention is paid to a new information phenomenon – infonoise – whose harmful nature is revealed. Among intended and unintended fluctuations of the language norm there is a process of constructing createmes as a means of communicative freedom, expressivisation and emotionalisation of the media discourse. The journalists are reminded of their responsibility for the quality of information presented to the public. A most significant definition of responsibility including all its necessary notional specifiers is introduced. The absence of these specifiers is illustrated in the information materials, which impedes adequate understanding of them by the mass media consumers and does not lead to the unified reflection. It is stated that the most important of these specifiers is the truthfulness of information. Special attention is paid to the ecological risks of the irresponsibility of some journalists in regard to their fishing, transmitting and broadcasting low-quality information. Emphasis is put on the fact that the practice of journalists represents a specific communicative sphere, which often disorients information consumers. This fact is mostly obvious in connection with incompliance of mass media in a common methodology of presenting information, which has resulted in destruction of the dialogue function of mass media: only the Internet still preserves this function. Highlighted is the role of the language in creating linguistic reality as opposed to the objective one.

The study actualizes the issues of achieving drug safety for individuals and society in the context of the prevalence of methods of “hybrid” impact on their culture, consciousness and life, associated with new information technologies using social networks, the darknet, web markets, shadow types of communications. In reality, this cumulatively reinforces the antagonism of a deep conflict between state and existing international drug trafficking market. The manifestations of drug expansion, the dynamic introduction of the drug subculture, the moral disorientation of young people in the context of the global information and social processes taking place in the 21st century contribute to the strengthening of the dangerous trend of drug addic-tion in society. From the standpoint of the geopolitical approach and its prin-ciples, we indicate the urgency of the need for the formation of a national drug control strategy through the creation and functioning of the state anti-drug system with the implementation of a legal policy to counter the spread of drug addiction and illegal drug trafficking. This is fully answered by an in-tegrative approach with the definition of such important components in this system as: regulatory and legal, scientific and theoretical, organizational and managerial, information, control and analytical. The study presents the forms of anti-drug activities at the federal, regional and local levels to build a systemic counteraction to drug trafficking in Russia.

Civic participation in news production has been a trend under academic scrutiny for at least two decades. The prevalence of digital communication and the dominance of proprietary platforms are two combining forces that disrupt the established journalistic norms. In this article, we investigate news participation and make three grand statements regarding: 1) the holistic definition of participation, 2) the network structure of participation delineating the power dynamics of different media actors, and 3) the transnational context of participation exhibiting the structural constraints within nation-state sovereignty. It is our argument that news participation as a civic act in the digital, globalized age has not fundamentally democratized the information flow as early optimists predicted. Instead, a group of “information elite” have risen to power due to their access to institutional resources, their advantageous positioning in the media ecology, and their entrenchment in the dominant ideology. Participation on proprietary platforms can be easily co-opted to serve the interest of the new information elite.

В статье рассмотрены особенности медиаконвергенции печатных изданий Чувашии на примере газет «Советская Чувашия», «Хыпар», «PRO Город». В век новых информационных технологий инструменты для визуализации информации становятся доступными для всех типов СМИ. Использование конвергентных механизмов, в том числе аудио-, видеоконтента, в печатных изданиях направлено на освещение событий информационного характера. Именно сайты региональных газет стали искать новые формы предоставления информации своим читателям и ее распространения: видео- и аудиоконтент, инфографика, мобильные версии. Благодаря цифровизации сегодня на газетных сайтах размещены анонсы свежих номеров и архивные материалы, они доступны на любом портативном устройстве, подключенном к сети Интернет. Мультимедийные элементы в газете призваны привлекать внимание аудитории, воздействовать на читателя и удерживать его внимание, разнообразить веб-ресурс, улучшать воспринимаемость информации. Анализ медиаконвергенции ведущих печатных изданий Чувашской Республики показывает, что все они находятся в начале процесса поиска своих путей и форм развития. The article considers the features of the media convergence of regional publications of Chuvashia on the example of printed publications of "Sovetskaya Chuvashia", "Khypar" and "PRO Gorod". In the age of new information technologies, information visualization tools are becoming available for all types of mass media. The use of convergent mechanisms including audio and video content in printed publications is aimed at covering events of an informational nature. It was the sites of regional newspapers that began to look for new forms of providing and distributing information: video and audio content, infographics, and a mobile version to their readers. Due to digitalization, today newspaper web-sites contain announcements of recent issues and archival material, they are available on any portable device connected to the Internet. Multimedia elements in the newspaper are designed to attract the attention of the audience, influence and retain the reader, diversify the web resource, and improve the perception of information. The analysis of the media convergence of the leading printed publications of the Chuvash Republic shows that all of them are at the beginning of the process of finding their own ways and forms of development.

The main objective of this chapter is to analyze the crimes related to the new information technologies in the European Union using the data provided by the European Commission and the spatial econometrics approaches. The data were analyzed with several tests, namely the Moran´s I, to verify the existence of global (for all countries of the European Union) and local spatial autocorrelation. The presence of spatial autocorrelation in the data means that the variable analyzed in a determined country is auto correlated with the same variable in the neighboring countries. The data analysis was complemented with some cross-section estimations, considering namely the Lagrange Multiplier tests, to examine the spatial lag and the spatial error autocorrelation. The spatial autocorrelation is a statistical infraction, so the consideration of these subjects prevents result bias and on the other hand allows some conclusions important to help in the definition of adjusted policies.

The article is devoted to actual problems of the functioning and translation of neologisms in the media texts of the modern English-language press. In the course of the study, the definition of “media text” is given. The stylistic features of English-language media texts are characterized. It is noted that the language of English-language media texts has certain features and is aimed at certain categories of readers. During the analysis of English-language media, a direct relationship between the degree of complexity of the selected language tools and the sociocultural specific features of the target audience is proved. It was emphasized that most of the specific vocabulary in English-language media is socio-political vocabulary. Political texts are connected with the task of simultaneously and clearly conveying the events of the world of politics, and not overly complicating and overloading the message with various terms that would interfere with its understanding. Consequently, journalists often resort to the use of neologisms. The concepts of neologisms and their typology are considered. It is noted that there are various parameters for the definition of the term “neology”: the process of creating new lexical units is built in accordance with the usual mechanisms of the creative process in the development of speech; theoretical and applied research on the creation of lexical units, ways of forming words, criteria for recognition, acceptance and dissemination of neologisms, sociocultural aspects of neology; systematically organized activities of institutes for accounting, creating, recording, disseminating and introducing neologisms into a clear framework of language policy; the task of establishing new terminology systems and recently created industries that have gaps in terminology and require its implementation; a lexicographic system of relations with dictionaries, which proceeds from two aspects: using the dictionary as a filtering tool for recognizing neologisms and analyzing their processing inside dictionaries. The functional features of the use of neologisms in the media text are considered. The results of the analysis allow us to conclude that neologisms are quite common in newspaper texts, are reflected in articles of various subjects (economic, business, entertainment, youth press, etc.), creating in each of them its own stylistic effect. It is noted that the transfer of neologisms in the Ukrainian language is carried out using such translation methods as assimilation, descriptive translation, tracing, transcribing, transliteration.

The article is devoted to the peculiarities of the use of multimedia presentations in the process of teaching a foreign language to students of technical universities. The educational process uses multimedia encyclopedias, tutors, tutorials, tests and individual assignments. However, in the educational process of higher education, the use of electronic presentations is the most acceptable way of using a computer that helps to competently organize the learning process, since the degree of assimilation of audiovisual information is very high.The interactivity of the presentation makes it the most popular form of communication visualization in life. Presentations serve not only to present knowledge when studying new material, presenting new information, but also to control them, consolidate what has been passed, work out educational skills and skills, repeat the practical application of the acquired knowledge, abilities, skills, generalization, systematization of knowledge, therefore, they successfully perform didactic functions.The basic requirements for the creation of multimedia presentations, their use and the principles of organizing this form of education are described. Presentations can support discussion. With the use of information technology, the very concept of education is currently changing.The article discusses new principles of a specific nature. allowing to form presentation competence necessary for various activities in the curriculum, productive plans and in real life, and in the future - the formation of the media culture of the future professional.
