The Biblical Aspect of the Term “Immaculate” as the Basis for the Dogma of the Immaculate Conception

In this article, we considered the biblical basis of the Church's teaching on the Immaculate Conception. The Catholic Church proceeds from the biblical concept of «kekharitomen» (гр.), which formed the basis of the teaching about this glorious Marian dogma. In this work, the linguistic sources of this term were presented, which shed light on the actions of the Holy Spirit, Who, erring over all creation with the will of the Father through the Son, being their common personal Love, creates Mary as a new Creation. In Eph 1, 6 St. Paul speaks of our justification through the will of the Father by grace in His beloved Son Jesus Christ. The Apostle of the Nations uses the verb «kharito» (гр.), which means that the Mother of God was justified in advance thanks to the anticipatory action of the Holy Spirit with the will of the Son and the Father. God would not be omnipotent if He did not protect His Mother from the sin of the ancestors. That is why, thanks to the future Incarnation, He forbids the Most Pure One from original sin in an anticipatory way, so that through Her He may take the body and redeem the whole world on the Cross. This work should become a bridge between Catholics, Orthodox and Protestants, who should look at Christ in a new way through the prism of Mary's perfect holiness from the Conception.

“Me aviento el English y el Spanish”: Spanish-English code-switching in Texas conjunto artist Nick Villarreal

Aims and objectives: This study focuses on Nick Villarreal (1951–2017), a bilingual and bicultural conjunto musician from San Antonio. It ascertains the frequency, formal features, and socio-pragmatic functions of the Spanish/English code-switching found in his songs. Methodology: Quantitative and qualitative approaches are utilized to explore Nick Villarreal’s use of code-switching in song lyrics. Data and analysis: Nick Villarreal’s commercially available discography (178 non-repeated tracks) was classified by matrix language. All instances of code-switching were identified and classified by type, syntactic category, and function. Song themes were inductively analyzed. Findings: Most of Nick Villarreal’s lyrics are in Spanish (73%), while 22% contain code-switching. Lexical insertions are the most common type of switches (65%). Villarreal also employs other contact phenomena, such as fully nativized borrowings, and syntactic and semantic calques. His virtuosity is apparent in his humorous bilingualism, especially in the creative nominalizations of English clauses as nicknames (e.g., la I-didn’t-do-it). The main function performed by switches is poetic—that is, stylistic uses of language, such as rhyming, joking, and puns. He conveys authenticity through code-switching and other enregistered linguistic sources such as border slang, or caló, and working-class/rural Mexican Spanish. He shows loyalty toward a working-class rural Spanish-speaking audience of conjunto that shares his background, while simultaneously appealing to second-generation Mexican Americans through his use of English and references to Anglo culture. Originality: Only recently have scholars begun to describe the linguistic features of borderland styles. This study focuses on an artist who has never received scholarly attention before but who turned his music into a meaningful vehicle for linguistic and cultural anti-assimilatory subversion. Implications: Villarreal employs strategies common to other borderlands bilingual musicians while innovating creatively. He actively stylizes the local to evoke a sense of authenticity and is thus a meaningful example of the intersection between language representation, class allegiance, linguistic attitudes, and cultural stance.

On the mining vocabulary functioning in Perm 18th c. written records

Based on the Perm written monuments from the mid- and late 18th c., this article traces the dynamics of changes in the lexical composition of Perm business documents, studies the phenomenon of parallel use of borrowed and original terms in monuments, and describes the previously unrecorded vocabulary. The author analyzes extralinguistic reasons for the appearance of doublet names, as well as the process of partial displacement of borrowed words by their original analogues. Special attention is paid to the degree of morphological and word-formation development of German borrowing terms within the framework of mining vocabulary. The article attempts to clarify the picture of the functioning and the correlation between the original and borrowed mining industry vocabulary. In comparison with the 18th–19th c. Pyskor written records, the author tracks the usage dynamics of the corresponding layers of vocabulary using a previously unexplored writtеn record, Stolp prikhodnoy… 1741 goda [Column of the Incoming ... 1741] and traditional methods of linguistic source studies. The results include establishing parallel names types (borrowed/native term); introducing new lexemes into scientific circulation; new evidence of decreased rate of borrowing and changing some of the borrowed vocabulary with native names in the 18th c.

To look for another thing, and in another way: revitalising criticality with multimodal methodologies

ABSTRACT This article proposes multimodal methodologies as a path to revitalising criticality in CTS. It begins by assessing the strengths of existing scholarship on “terrorism”, whilst also noting this scholarship’s overwhelmingly linguistic source materials. It considers shortcomings of such a monomodal methodology: including the reproduction of binary conceptual codes, which I argue are uniquely highly codified in linguistic sources; and an imbalance towards structured logics, rather than unstructured affects, in CTS’ conception of terrorism discourses. The article suggests greater diversity of source materials can resolve these shortcomings: deepening our critical project by heightening our sensitivity to transformative, non-binary ways of knowing; and reorienting our analyses from logical to affectual modes of cognition. I demonstrate these possibilities with a review of multimodal materials from Northern Ireland’s so-called “peace walls” (built by state security to contain violence of the “Troubles”). I end with reflections on why CTS might have operationalised a predominantly textual methodology to date – and, further, with a call for readers to integrate multimodality in disseminating our research, as much as selecting our source materials.

STRUCTURAL AND SEMANTIC FEATURES OF BRITISH TOPONYMS

The article is devoted to the review of structural and semantic features of British toponyms. The study of toponyms helps to understand the linguistic image of the world, highlighting ethnic experience and culture. Toponyms are important as means of transmitting historical, cultural, and other information across generations, which makes their study relevant in linguistics. The proper names of British territories are very diverse, as the country has been home to various civilizations and peoples for many centuries, each of which contributed to the language through their own names. In this work, 200 toponyms from three regions of Great Britain were investigated. According to the origin, the researched toponyms are divided into native and borrowed. Native proper names predominate in England, while toponyms of Scandinavian origin are found in the northern regions and the west of the country. Wales and Scotland are characterized mainly by Celtic names. Borrowed toponyms are distinguished according to four linguistic sources: Celtic, Latin, Scandinavian and Norman-French. English contains more loanwords because it is open to receiving words from other languages due to contact with other cultures and colonial heritage. In general, people who named geographical objects were guided by the features of the landscape where this object was located. This category of toponyms occurs in all three parts of Britain and has many subgroups. The emergence of this group is a logical consequence of the fact that the ancestors of the British named their surroundings according to what they saw. When creating and choosing toponyms, a certain pragmatic orientation can be observed, which depends on various factors, such as the historical context of naming, the level of cultural development, social, political, religious or patriotic motives of persons who give certain names to geographical objects. This layer of vocabulary is of great interest to researchers because it can collect linguistic, sociocultural and historical experience.

«ҚЫЗ ЖІБЕК» ЖЫРЫНДАҒЫ ЭТНОЛЕКСИКАНЫҢТАНЫМДЫҚ СИПАТЫН ОҚЫТУ ЖОЛДАРЫ

Language is the main indicator of the spiritual and culturalwealth of an ethnic group. Linguistic data on the national identity, nationalworldview, and national system of thinking of an ethnic group are stored in itslanguage unity and transmitted to future generations. The expression of thelanguage of any people depends on its history, culture, literature, traditions,customs, worldview, common way of life and gives a lot of data from the world of this language. By revealing the cultural information behind ethnolexic units,one can recognize the worldview, culture of that people. One of the mostinformative linguistic sources of spiritual and material culture of the Kazakhpeople is folklore, in particular, zhyrau poetry, oratory, Lyro – epic songs, etc.The article discusses ways to teach schoolchildren the cognitive natureof ethnolexics in the song «Kyz Zhibek». In accordance with this, a set of tasksand training samples based on the updated educational program are displayed.In particular, an ethnolinguistic analysis of ethno-cultural units that inform ournational culture in zhyr was carried out, work was carried out to increase theethno-cultural activity of students and the formation of ethno-culturalcompetence on the basis of various tasks in the course of training.

Challenges of Rendering Chauvinism into Arabic: Implications for Dictionary Users and Translation Equivalence

Bilingual dictionaries sometimes do not satisfy the needs of dictionary users because they offer partial equivalents or incomplete information. This status does not avail the users who seek to immediately retrieve the required information. The users presume that language entries in bilingual dictionaries are communicative equivalents that can be used to translate specific occurrences of the source language item. If the semantic and communicative translation does not hold between the SL and TL, the user will not be able to render the item in question successfully. This paper examines the target language equivalents for ‘chauvinism in English –Arabic dictionaries, namely the Oxford English-Arabic Dictionary (2014); Al-Mawrid, English-Arabic (2006); Al-Muɣni al-Kabiːr(1995); The Oxford Word Power (2006); The Dictionary, English-Arabic (2004), as a representative sample. These dictionaries do not catch the broad range of the concept that covers many sorts of claims and social attitudes in its native linguistic sources. To make up for this deficiency, the paper highlights the appropriate strategies that translators can use to render this concept communicatively into Arabic. The study is based on the communicative functional approach which assumes that dictionary meaning is insufficient to resolve potential ambiguities and that the contexts are necessary to unpack specific senses or connotations of the item. This deficiency has an impact on the translator’s choice of strategy to meet the target readers’ needs. Finally, strategies and suggestions for helping to achieve equivalence in bilingual dictionaries are discussed.Keywords: Equivalence, Contextual translation, Communicative equivalence, Ambiguity, Contested concept

FACTORS AFFECTING SECOND LANGUAGE COMPREHENSION ABILITY IN CHILDREN: A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW

This systematic review aims to explore the factors that influence children's second language comprehension ability. Second language acquisition in children is a complex process that is influenced by a variety of factors. Understanding these factors can provide valuable insights for educators, parents, and policymakers to optimize language learning strategies and interventions. This review follows a systematic approach by conducting a comprehensive search across multiple databases, including educational, psychological, and linguistic sources. Relevant studies published in the last decade were included in the analysis. The review focuses on children aged 5 to 12 years, as this is a crucial period for language development and acquisition. By combining previous investigations as a more thorough evaluation of the literature, this study used the systematic literature review (SLR) method to address the research issues. The findings reveal several key factors that influence second language comprehension ability in children. Firstly, individual cognitive factors, such as working memory capacity, attention, and executive functions, play an important role in language processing and comprehension. Second, socio-cultural factors, including parental involvement, socioeconomic status, and exposure to a second language in the community, influence language learning outcomes. Thirdly, instructional factors, such as the quality of teaching methods, curriculum design, and classroom environment, have a great impact on children's language comprehension abilities. Based on these findings, this review underscores the need for a comprehensive and holistic approach to improving second language comprehension skills in children. It emphasizes the importance of integrating cognitive, socio-cultural, and instructional factors in language learning programs. In addition, the review also identifies research gaps and provides recommendations for future research to further enhance our understanding of second language acquisition in children.

Mythological Notions of the Deceased among the Slavic Peoples

Many taboos and a high resistance to change are the hallmark of posthumous rituals and customs among all Slavic peoples, which has helped maintain their archaic nature. According to Slavic beliefs, in the otherworld, the souls of the deceased who were kind-hearted during their lifetime join the group of their ancestors who guard the living, providing them with prosperity and fertility. In return, living descendants had an obligation to periodically organize commemorations for the deceased, invoke memories of them, and make (food) offerings meant for the salvation of their souls. On the other hand, Slavs believed that the deceased who died prematurely or violently, or those who were dishonourable throughout their lives, became “the revenant deceased” or “the impure deceased” and could bring harm, sickness, and death to the living. For these reasons, people tended to prepare all of the dead—particularly the ones whose souls could potentially become members of the “impure” group—adequately for the funeral and to see their souls off from this world following traditional rites. This research is based on the presupposition that, among folk beliefs, customs, and rituals regarding the deceased (and their souls), there is a substratum whose archaic nature reaches back to the period when Slavic peoples lived together. These are folk beliefs and customs which appear in all three groups of Slavic peoples but are not related to any of the predominant religions, primarily Christianity, nor did they emerge under the influences of those religions. The sources used in the research include a published ethnographic corpus of data and scientific papers on posthumous rites among the Slavs. Also taken into account were archaeological, historical, and linguistic sources.

The national core of the lexical-illustrative base of Ukrainian dictionaries of the first half of the 20th century On the material of the Archival Card Index

The article focuses on the topical issue of language as a civilizational and nation-building value in the context of the struggle for Ukrainian identity. The study is devoted to the problem of the national core of lexical-illustrative material in the Archival Card Index as a linguistic source. The subject of the study is the linguistic content of the card index of Ukrainian dictionaries of the early 20th century from the lexical, phraseological, grammatical, etc. points of view. The goal is to find out the features that highlight the aesthetic parameter of the formation of the national language, the dynamics of its semantic component, spelling norms, etc. Using the method of structural analysis, lexicographic description, and generalization, were identified those language units that can be included in the register or recommendation section of a modern dictionary of the active type as synonyms — forgotten, unfixed or returned. For the first time, the materials of the ACI became the object of this type of research, such as lexemes and quotation material to them: клейнодець, котва, сліпи, сварливий, крижники; сипнути наздогад, не було на молоці — не буде й на сироватці. The main result of the research is that the analysis of the fragments of the Archival Card Index — the lexical-illustrative base of the lexicographic work of the early 20th century — is a base: for solving lexical, grammatical, phraseological issues of the modern language; development of the recommendation section of a modern dictionary of the active type from the point of view of returned language resources. The ACI is rich in examples that reflect linguistic features different from today’s codified examples; a rich synonymous series of Ukrainian words highlights the shades of meaning of Ukrainian units. The prospects for further study are that the considered materials are the basis for developing and deepening the theory of nationally marked features of the Ukrainian language.

Creation and importance of language corps in Uzbekistan

The article discusses the transformation of language into the language of the Internet, computer technology, mathematical linguistics, its continuation and the formation and development of computer linguistics, in particular the question of modeling natural languages for artificial intelligence. The Uzbek National Corps plays an important role in enhancing the international status of the Uzbek language. The work carried out in the field of computer linguistics plays an important role in resolving existing problems in the Uzbek language. The question of the linguistic and extralinguistic separation of special tags for marking texts and their components is studied in particular.The coding requirements for important text information are defined. The state analyzes the linguistic module and the algorithm and its types from independent components of the linguistic program code. The need for algorithms for phonological, morphological and spelling rules for the formation of the lexical and grammatical code is scientifically substantiated. The importance of such linguistic modules as phonology, morphology and spelling in the formation of the linguistic base of the national corpus of the Uzbek language is emphasized. The article examines the corpus’s primary purpose as a complex linguistic source, as well as the fact that it primarily contains two sorts of information and its types. The key effective capabilities of the corpus, according to the paper, are reducing time spent on the text analysis process and being able to explain the properties of language units in speech with thousands of instances. The national corpus, the educational corpus, and the parallel corpus are all discussed in the subject of computer linguistics. It was stressed that linguistic and extralinguistic tagging of them, the development of corpus formation algorithms, and the establishment of corpus linguistic support are all societal need. It recognizes the urgency of developing the basis for the creation of the Uzbek language corpus, conducting research in the field of computer linguistics as a scientific and theoretical source.

Лексема Jumal ‘Бог’ в карельском языке: лингвокультурологический аспект

the article examines the specifics of functioning of the component Jumal ‘God’ in Karelian lexemes. Names with the semantics “God”, as well as terms containing the composite under consideration as part of complex words in the Karelian language in comparison with Vepsian, Finnish and Russian languages are analyzed. Objective: to determine the role of the lexeme Jumal ‘God’ in the formation of cultural and linguistic thesaurus of the Karelians. Research materials: Karelian-language linguistic sources. Results and novelty of the research: the author examines the semantic and motivational principles of nomination of Karelian names containing the component Jumal ‘God’ in genitive or nominative construction. In addition, terms with the semantics ‘God’ that are important in the aspect of spiritual culture are analyzed. Their etymological, word-formation and ethnolinguistic analysis is revealed. As a result of the study, 20 dialect variants were identified that denote God in the Karelian language and have different origins: Russian borrowings, substantivized participles, denominal nouns, as well as lemmas of Baltic-Finnish origin. The name Jumal functions most widely in the linguistic picture of the world of the Karelians and other peoples: in the names of diseases, Christian terminology, as well as meteorological vocabulary. In the vocabulary under study, linguistic and cultural contacts of the Karelians, Vepsians, Finns and Russians are traced. The scientific novelty of the research is due to the first comprehensive study of the functioning of the component Jumal ‘God’ in Karelian lexemes

A Project to Collect and Study the Language of a Group of Contemporary Tihama Al-Hijaz Tribes

A project aimed at collecting and studying the language of a group of contemporary Tihama tribes in the Hijaz, namely: Fahm tribe, Hudhayl tribe, and Banu Kinana (Al-Jahadla). These tribes inhabit the southern region of Makkah al-Mukarramah in the western part of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and reside in close proximity, despite the scattered nature of their homes, as indicated by demographic and geographical studies. Renowned for their eloquence, these tribes' language holds significant importance in contemporary linguistic research. The project is structured around two main aspects, each branching into secondary auxiliary facets: firstly, gathering linguistic material used by the mentioned tribes in various daily life situations and communication contexts, and secondly, conducting a linguistic study on the phonetic, morphological, grammatical, and semantic levels based on the collected field data. The research addresses a fundamental problem: monitoring linguistic phenomena in the study sample to answer key questions such as the roots of these phenomena in the classical level of Arabic, their developmental trajectory, and the pathways they traversed to attain their present-day usage. The study yielded crucial results, notably the abundance of morphological phenomena within the tribes, with some maintaining their traditional form while others have evolved. These variations appear in patterned forms in the contemporary dialects of the study environment. The research also revealed the presence of phenomena influenced by multiple linguistic sources. Emphasizing the significance of linguistic geography in achieving planned results, the study recommends further scientifically valuable research in the realm of applied linguistics. Additionally, it suggests that specialized research centers and language academies focus on dialects within the realms of first eloquence.

CONSTANTINE PORPHYROGENITUS: AΤΕΛΚΟΥΖΟΥ
 CONSTANTINE PORPHYROGENITUS: ATELKUZU

The treatise of Konstantin Porphyrogenitus “On the Management of the Empire” is the most authoritative source on toponymy and ethnonymics of Eastern Europe regions associated with the early history of the ancestors of the modern Slavs, Turks and Indo-Iranians, so every name mentioned in it continues to arouse the most lively interest to this day.
 
 The purpose of the study is to introduce some data that are not taken into account by historians-medievalists and evaluate the interpretations proposed by the author when reading E.M. Usmanov’s publications “On the Problem of Interpreting Medieval European Sources about the Ancestral Homeland of the Hungarians” and “The Hingilus River and the “Turks” of Konstantin Porphyrogenitus”.
 
 Materials and methods. The main research methods were the method of analyzing historical sources, including those used by predecessors, and the historical-genetic method. The article presents the views of those who had already addressed the problem of interpreting the geographical name Atel Kuzu mentioned in Konstantin’s treatise, as well as additional information from dictionaries and other historical and linguistic sources.
 
 Study results. The article establishes incorrectness of: 1) attributing the name Atel kuzu to the Kypchak source, since it has a bright Oguz phonomorphological appearance; 2) attributing the meaning “source; top of the river” to the Bashkir word кѳҙ/күҙ; 3) searching for the territory called Atel kuzu in the Southern Urals. Based on the material of toponymic dictionaries, it is proved that in all the names of the river sources recorded in the territory of Bashkortostan are formed on the basis of the geographical nomenclature term bash “head; beginning; source, top”, it turns out that the Oguz appearance of the toponym Atel Kuzu is associated with the fact that all medieval authors consistently call the Hungarians as the Turks.
 
 Conclusions. The new, sensational derivation of the etymology for the historical toponym Atel Kuzu basing on the data of the modern Bashkir language does not stand up to criticism.

Social factors in choosing personal names among Turkmens

This article is devoted to the analysis of social factors that indicate the choice of a certain personal name among the Turkmen people. The article examines personal names which contain extensive information about the features of the cultural, historical, social and everyday picture of the development of society. The relevance of this work is determined by the growing interest in the onomastics of Turkmenistan, namely personal names, which are the most important linguistic source of information about the culture and history of the Turkmen people. The article discusses the system of principles underlying the naming of a born child by a name among the Turkmen people. The Turkmen anthroponymic system indicates a wide range of criteria associated with family-tribal, religious, historical, natural, and physiological naming traditions. The purpose of this article is to analyze the motives for naming among the Turkmen people. In the article we have highlighted the main models of naming. In Turkmen linguistic culture, parents’ attitudes were manifested in intentional names. In conclusion, we can conclude that a personal name carries a deep semantic load. Moreover, it affects a person’s future. Along with the usual rules that Turkmens use when choosing names for their children, they have special customs that reflect the specifics and originality of naming a child and these customs are closely related to the character of the people themselves, the nature of their economy, sociocultural and religious and moral views. Our analysis of the motives for naming among the Turkmens showed that the Turkmen anthroponymic system reflects the unique features of the life understanding of the surrounding reality, which clarifies certain periods of the social life and spiritual culture of the Turkmen people.

Unsourced evidentiality and critical reading: the case of international postgraduates in Australia

ABSTRACT This paper investigates readers’ recognition of unsourced evidentials in texts in association with critical reading. To this end, we involved four Iranian postgraduate students at an Australian university in a collective case study where each student read four Persian texts and participated in in-depth interviews and focus group discussions. Data analysis employed critical discourse analysis and discursive power relations to examine participants’ positionalities and subjectivities. Our findings in general confirm the students’ recognition of unsourced evidential in texts as an indication of critical reading. More specifically, it was revealed that linguistic sources (e.g. Persian indefinite suffix ‘−i’), as well as socio-cultural factors such as normalization embedded within the Persian oral narrative and discourse, play significantly in identifying unsourced evidentials. Pedagogical implications for critical reflection on texts containing instances of unsourced evidentials are suggested.

Linguistic Illusions Guide Eye Movement: Evidence From Doubling

Across languages, certain phonological patterns are preferred to others (e.g., blog > lbog). But whether such preferences arise from abstract linguistic constraints or sensorimotor pressures is controversial. We address this debate by examining the constraints on doubling (e.g., slaflaf, generally, XX). Doubling demonstrably elicits conflicting responses (aversion or preference), depending on the linguistic level of analysis (phonology vs. morphology). Since the stimulus remains unchanged, the shifting responses imply abstract constraints. Here, we ask whether these constraints apply online, in eye movements. Experiment 1 shows that, in bare phonological forms, doubling is dispreferred, and correspondingly it elicits shorter fixations. Remarkably, when doubling signals morphological plurality, the aversion shifts into preference, in Experiment 2. Our results demonstrate for the first time that the constraints on doubling apply online. These findings are consistent with the hypothesis that phonological knowledge arises, in part, from an abstract linguistic source.

Lexical Errors in Third Language Acquisition: A Comparative Analysis of Writing Performance in Rabat-Sale and Souss-Massa Regions of Morocco

The comparative study explores the phenomenon of lexical cross-linguistic influence on high school students' writing performance within two distinct regions of Morocco: Rabat-Sale and Souss-Massa. Using James Taxonomy as a framework, written narratives produced by 200 students from both regions were analyzed focusing on their lexical choices and the occurrence of lexical errors. Distinct patterns of lexical errors, including Calque, Prefix, Over-inclusion, Borrowing, and Omission errors, were identified in students' narratives. The results revealed notable differences in lexical errors between the Souss-Massa and Rabat-Sale regions. Souss-Massa students exhibited higher frequencies of Calque (25), Prefix (20), Over-inclusion (35), and Omission (28), indicating a stronger influence from other linguistic sources and potential issues with precision and clarity in their writing. In contrast, Rabat-Sale students showed a higher frequency of Borrowing (28), suggesting a greater tendency to incorporate foreign language elements into their writing. These results have implications for tailored language education and curriculum development in Morocco and emphasize the importance of considering regional linguistic nuances.
