Отношение представителей молодежи к смерти и феномену скулшутинга

<p style="text-align: justify;">An analysis of differences in psychological attitudes to the phenomenon of school shooting among young people who are knowledgeable and uninformed about school shootings was carried out through studying its relationship with attitudes towards death in a sample of 98 people (48 men and 50 women, the average age was 22.7 years). It is shown that there is a difference in the assessment and perception of the specific terminology of school shootings «natural selection», «reb’n’vodka», «trench coat mafia», «wrath» in groups knowledgeable and uninformed about school shootings: common terms are more positively evaluated by those who were previously familiar with the concept of «school shootings». It is concluded that for respondents familiar with school shootings, their own death and the death of another are close in meaning and emotional burden. The group of people who are knowledgeable on school shootings demonstrates the presence of a suicidal risk. Death is viewed by them approvingly and positively, since it entails a liberation from suffering, adversity and difficulties. The results obtained reflect the diagnostic possibilities of studying the implicit attitude towards school shootings by studying the attitude towards death. The promising task of this study is to analyze the differences in the psychological attitude towards the phenomenon of school shootings in people with autoaggressive behavior, who are knowledgeable and uninformed of school shootings, by studying the attitude towards death.</p>

Skaitmeninis vyresnio amžiaus žmonių įsitraukimas Lietuvoje: barjerai ir pagalbos galimybės

While Lithuania advances rapidly in the ICT sector, a digital divide persists among older adults. A study of 289 elderly Internet users highlighted key barriers and facilitators in digital engagement. Motivation stemmed from personal qualities like curiosity and past work experience with digital tools. Major barriers included language challenges, technical jargon, limited support, device comprehension issues, and emotional factors. Formal and informal training, peer support, gaming‘s role, and family, particularly younger members, emerged as crucial learning aids. The study underscores the need for strategies tailored to enhance digital inclusion of older people in Lithuania.

Pro-Peace vs. Pro-War Conceptualizations in the Language of Hungarian Propaganda

The language of propaganda can be treated as a specialist language with its own specialized terminology. It is produced by groups of variously configured propaganda experts responsible for the creation of propaganda messages, placed at one end of the communication channel, together with its specific target audience that consumes these messages, situated at the other end of the communication channel. As a result of this specialized communication process, the language of propaganda is function-oriented and its focus is always put on the objectives that are to be achieved. These include shaping and manipulating public opinions. For these goals to be successful, the language of propaganda must be equipped with efficient and well-designed conceptualizations able to change and modify the way people think. Defined as such, the language of propaganda is not a purely linguistic construct, but a multimodal tool able to make use of the visual and audiovisual output as well. The interest in mental processes such as conceptualization lies at the very center of cognitive linguistics and the study of cognitive mechanisms responsible for various types of conceptualizations is of high priority in cognitively driven approaches to language. Another issue which makes cognitive linguistics suitable for this type of research in specialist languages is its long standing preference for multidisciplinary and multimodal phenomena. Applying the methodology of cognitive linguistics, the present paper aims at identifying and discussing the PRO-PEACE vs. PRO-WAR network of conceptualizations in the language of Hungarian propaganda, often compared in its mastery with Orwell’s newspeak or the Soviet propaganda machinery because of its power and influence. Hungary’s leading right-wing party, Fidesz-KDNP, has retained political control in Hungary ever since its landslide victory in the 2010 national elections and developed a powerful propaganda tool that is ideally customized to the culture-specific preferences of Hungarian voters. Through quantitative and qualitative analysis, this research studies linguistic expressions shaping PRO-PEACE vs. PRO-WAR conceptualizations with their rich social, historical and cultural contexts.

Estų kalbos planavimo rekomendacijos dėl žodžių reikšmių – pagrįstos ir būtinos, ar ne?

On the example of Estonian language planning, this research paper explores whether it is justified and necessary to give recommendations for the meanings of words. The focus is on the general language. Technical language is out of the scope of this research. First, a brief overview of the history of Estonian language planning and the development of Standard Estonian, as well as the current situation is provided. Then the paper focuses on recent research on the meanings of words in Estonian. The purpose was to revise the recommendations for the meanings of words by Estonian language planning. The research is based on the common approaches in Estonian linguistics today – the usage-based linguistics and corpus linguistics. The paper argues that recommendations by language planning for the meanings of words are not justified nor necessary in the general language, even if some explanations on the choice of words are relevant (e.g., for offensive words).

Words to find common ground for action. Bridging social and health services through concertation on accessibility to vulnerable groups in Brussels

Introduction: Linking general primary care, health and social services with non-profit organisations dedicated to vulnerable groups is the aim of an ongoing concertation process hosted by Brusano, the regional organisation aimed at fostering person-centred health and social-integrated services in Brussels.
 In the Belgian Capital, the most vulnerable people are often attended to by non-profit organisations dedicated to a specific target group or problem. These organisations are often overwhelmed, with people not moving towards general services as intended at some point. General primary care and social services remain insufficiently accessible to vulnerable people. Considering the integrated health and social policy reforms currently taking place at national and regional levels, health and social professionals felt the need to better understand each other and build common ground in order to work together and participate in the reform process. 
 Targeted population and stakeholders: The targeted population is care providers from all levels of care, home helpers and social workers in all kinds of settings. End beneficiaries are vulnerable groups - e.g. migrants, sex workers, people with addictions, prisoners and former inmates, isolated persons, homeless people... - and people who are at a high risk of exclusion when facing problems mixing health and social situations – low income, precarious housing, language barriers... The premise is that if services can include such vulnerable groups, they might achieve broader accessibility for all. 
 Participants: The concertation gathers professionals from multiple health sector disciplines- primary care, hospital, mental health - as well as from the social sector and dedicated non-profits. Nearly 150 professionals participate, with a mean attendance of 30 per meeting.
 Description of the initiative: In 2021-2022, the concertation resulted in an online publication, co-written by two partners, reviewed by 5 others, presented and discussed in 3 meetings, then further adjusted accordingly. The paper provides an overview of the organisation of the health and social systems, as well as a set of definitions. It acknowledges that different levels of care operate as first contact and often lack the means and skills to be fully inclusive and accessible to vulnerable groups. 
 Results / Impact: Stakeholders coined a new phrase - “inclusive practices” - to fully capture the expertise of the dedicated non-profits and to bring about inclusivity in different settings through collaborations. The definitions were included in the glossary used as a reference for the upcoming Regional Health and Social Policy Plan.
 
 Learning for the international audience: Building a common language for health and social professionals, while fully recognizing the expertise of non-profits dedicated to vulnerable groups bridges the gap between health and social services. It is a step towards better integration of health and social organisations, which is a major challenge to integrated care.
 Next steps: In the coming months, the concertation process will continue identifying and supporting inclusive practices whatever the service or level of care. It will be fully part of the Regional Health and Social Integrated Plan. 
 It develops as a model where a specific expertise supports services to the general population.

Population Health Management - What's in the name? International vision sharing and lessons learned.

Population Health Management (PHM) has different possible interpretations and elaborations depending on the lens through which it is viewed. A general definition is that PHM is a process to improve health outcomes in a specific group or an individual through improved care coordination and patient engagement supported by appropriate financial and organizational models. But how can policymakers, organizations and individual healthcare providers structurally get to work with PHM ? 
 Population health management can be an equity tool to operationalize health goals and interventions. Through the vast amount of data, the population and its various subgroups can be identified and mapped. This can be complemented by analyses of setting and context, often mapped locally. This way, targeted actions can be set up based on a holistic risk profile or subgroup. Behavioral and cultural insights into the broad population and subgroups is an important aspect, as how people deal with health may require completely different approaches. Additionally, the current fragmentation in the Belgian healthcare system of policy and organizational structures makes multidisciplinary collaboration difficult, if we aim for a tailor-made care for citizens. What is the ideal level for each responsibility of population health management? 
 During covid-19 there was a concrete objective: to offer a vaccine to as many people as possible, as soon as possible. For this purpose an outreach approach was set up in Flanders via population managers within a defined area. Using environmental analysis and data, targeted, tailor-made actions were set up to offer vaccines. All local partners were mobilized, yielding excellent results with regard to vaccination coverage. But, how can this be made sustainable and applied to other incentives?
 In this workshop, we would like to present possible interpretations around PHM to the international audience. Within the Flanders Agency for Care and Health, we are working towards a supported vision of PHM. Hence, we are eager to learn from the international audience and their approaches and experiences in PHM at micro, meso and macro level.
 Anyone who is in any way concerned with population health management or curious about the topic is welcome to attend this workshop, as we aim for an open dialogue with many perspectives from a diverse group. PHM is a very technical and complex term. What we would like to see is how we can make it work and keep it operable in a very practical – down-to-earth way. 
 Timetable: 20 minutes introduction different visions : data, organizational structures and individual healthcare provider approaches. 25 minutes subdivision into groups discussing about the different topics round PHM (data, organization, financial, local) at micro, meso and macro level about visions, implementing barriers and key lessons learned. 10 minutes feedback and 5 minutes of key messages. 
 After each exchange there will be feedback to the whole group. At the end the most important key messages will be shared with the group. The knowledge and insights gained will be used as input for a vision paper of the Agency on PHM.

Estrés psicológico de los intérpretes simultáneos de árabe

This research elucidates the psychological stress encountered by interpreters proficient in the Arabic <> English language pair. Utilizing a five-Likert-point survey, the study seeks to ascertain the perceptions of these simultaneous interpreters regarding the most pronounced stress-inducing elements they encounter during their professional engagements. The findings highlight that primary stress precipitators encompass subpar remuneration, an intensified sense of accountability for the interpreted content, and the lack of cooperation from private clientele. Concurrently, approximately two-thirds of the identified stressors engender moderate stress levels; these include specialized terminologies, inadequate speaker visibility, and the necessity for frequent travel, among numerous other factors. Furthermore, the medical manifestations of this stress are prominently throat irritation, characterized by dryness and headaches, followed by compromised concentration, somnolence, back pain, fatigue, eye irritation, and minimal rates of insomnia. The implications of this research could contribute significantly to the existing body of knowledge on stress dynamics within the realms of translation and interpretation, as well as addressing human-centered concerns within the context of court interpreting.

The Slavonic Solunskaja Legenda (“The Legend of Thessalonica”) and Its Syriac Original

Abstract The Slavonic eschatological apocryphon Solunskaja Legenda (“The Legend of Thessalonica”) is a direct translation from Syriac. The archetype of the extant recensions is datable to 893–972. It was created, in the First Bulgarian Empire, on the base of an earlier Slavonic text that did not mention the Bulgarians. The Sitz im Leben of the original Syriac recension and its Slavonic translation is a Syrian monothelete colony in North Macedonia (then, a part of Byzantium) between 752/754 and 839/842. The legend echoed events related to a successful Syriac monothelete mission to a slavinia (Slavic enclave headed by an autonomous prince) in the region of Thessalonica in the 670s or 680s. The legend describes the creation of the first Slavonic alphabet, and it uses specific terminology for writing tools. In its Slavonic translation, this terminology was transliterated instead of being translated. It can be assumed that the translator wanted to introduce new terms into the Slavonic language in this way.

Smart homes under siege: Assessing the robustness of physical security against wireless network attacks

Nowadays domestic smart security devices, such as smart locks, smart doorbells, and security cameras, are becoming increasingly popular with users, due to their ease of use, convenience, and declining prices. Unlike conventional non-smart security devices, such as alarms and locks, performance standards for smart security devices, such as the British TS 621, are not easily understandable by end users due to the technical language employed. Users also have very few sources of unbiased information regarding product performance in real world conditions and protection against attacks from cyber attacker-burglars and, as a result, tend to take manufacturer claims at face value. This means that, as this work proves, users may be exposed to threats, such as theft, impersonation (should an attacker steal their credentials), and even physical injury, if the device fails and is used to prevent access to hazardous environments. As such, this paper deploys several attacks using popular wireless attack vectors (i.e., 433 MHz radio, Bluetooth, and RFID) against domestic smart security devices to assess the protection offered against a cyber attacker-burglar. Our results suggest that users are open to considerable cyber physical attacks, irrespective if they use lesser known (i.e., no name) or branded smart security devices, due to the poor security offered by these devices.

UNRAVELLING THE ART OF DECOMPRESSING ENGLISH-LANGUAGE SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNICAL TEXTS IN UKRAINIAN TRANSLATIONS

The study of decompression, an often neglected aspect of translation studies, elucidates its role in translational transformations leading to increased lexical and symbolic volumes. The subtleties of translating scientific and technical texts into English into Ukrainian become obvious when dealing with such problems as dense and complex content, special terminology, and the dynamic development of scientific fields. The added difficulty of maintaining logical consistency and coherence while ensuring understanding further complicates the translation process. To solve these difficulties, decompression in Ukrainian translations requires a multifaceted approach that combines linguistic knowledge and subject expertise. Initiating research into the phenomenon of decompression in the context of information translation from English to Ukrainian, this article uses a comprehensive research approach. By analysing a variety of English-language scientific and technical texts, the study reveals the intricate details of this transformational process. The focus is on understanding the impact of decompression on both the volume and clarity of translated texts, shedding light on the dynamic interaction between languages and the challenges of maintaining fidelity to source materials across linguistic and cultural differences. This study marks the beginning of a fine-grained understanding of decompression in technical translation. Future research should further explore the intricacies of decompression, contributing to the development of practical tools that will facilitate more effective cross-cultural communication in scientific and technical fields. By addressing the challenges associated with decompression, future research efforts can improve the accuracy and accessibility of translated scientific and technical content, further bridging the language gap and facilitating the seamless exchange of knowledge across different linguistic landscapes.

RECENT TRENDS IN TERMINOLOGY FORMATION IN THE FIELD OF SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT

The main objective of this article is to investigate the latest trends in the formation of terminological units in the field of software development and to identify translation difficulties of multi-component terms, which serve as a primary means of enhancing international communication in innovative developments and the interaction of the IT industry at the international level. The work is aimed at addressing the problems of forming and translating terms in Ukrainian technical documentation related to software development. The field of information technology is currently in a stage of active development, which complicates the work of Ukrainian professionals in improving business processes and communications. Specifically, the terminology of scientific-technical discourse in the field of IT development and programming is based on English-language terms.
 One of the main factors complicating translation is the presence of a large amount of multi-component lexicon in the terminology system of computer English. The article analyzes technical terms in the field of software development, substantiates the peculiarities of forming terminological units, and traces methods of their translation into the Ukrainian language. The analysis results in the identification of word-formation models of complex term words. Another important aspect of the research is the enrichment of the analyzed terminological system with terms-abbreviations and acronyms. A conclusion is drawn regarding the peculiarities of translational transformations and the main difficulties encountered by translators during their work.

Poetry and Sufi commentary: a case of/for religious reading in premodern Sufism

ABSTRACT One of the obstacles in the study of post-classical Sufi literatures has been the sceptical attitude toward Sufi commentary on Arabic and Persian lyrical poetry (specifically ‘mystical’ or ‘Sufi allegorical’ readings of the lyric). This attitude has prevented a wider appreciation of Sufi interpretations of such poetry. While there are signs of a shift in attitudes as scholars grapple with different Sufi commentators and their discussions of notable verses, many still hold to their scepticism. Although studies of individual commentaries will be necessary to reform these attitudes, a general response to the sceptical views may help to orient those studies, particularly one that draws its evidence and arguments from representative Sufi commentators and theorists of the lyric. This paper attempts such a response. Following a brief outline of critiques of Sufi commentary, and the reasons for continued scepticism toward commentators, I suggest how shifting understandings around the ambiguity present in the lyric should help to make allegorical interpretations seem more plausible as a collection of meanings in the archive that was persuasive to many readers, the figurative language of the lyric being able to support both literary-historical and allegorical interpretations of words, phrases, or images in particular verses. Sufi commentators used this ambiguity as a means by which to explore the meanings of the allegory according to the principle ‘The figurative is the bridge to the Truth–Reality’. Sufi theorists, moreover, discussed how the figurative language of the lyric and its allegoresis by way of commentary could serve distinct functions for different kinds of readers in Sufi knowledge–practice. If the figurative form of the lyric was more suitable for non-Sufi readers or novices in Sufism to encounter its ‘specific meanings’, commentary, expressed in the technical language of Sufism, could assist more advanced Sufi readers to verify its ‘general meanings’. Far from diminishing the lyric, Sufi commentary only enhanced its value, showing it to possess both literary beauty as well as profound depth of meaning. I invoke Paul Griffiths’s ‘religious reading’ to suggest that an approach to the lyric that privileges the views of Sufi commentators is not only feasible, it can even be valuable for specialists of the lyric in the contemporary academy.

Enhancing Language Learning through PBL in an Aviation Engineering Class

English for specific purposes is a field of teaching and learning that focuses on English language skills in context. It bridges the gap between general language knowledge and specific communication skills to enable students to meet the demands of their future professional field. For instance, aviation maintenance engineering requires the knowledge of highly specialized terminology. By providing appropriate and relevant linguistic tools, ESP enables aviation students to successfully perform job-related tasks and become more professionally competent within the aviation industry.
 
 While ESP has a role in improving language learning, the student’s experience can be further enhanced by incorporating Project-Based Learning into the curriculum to make learning more meaningful through inquiry-driven, task-based, and problem-solving paradigms. One key advantage of ESP in this regard is its adaptability, which means it can be adapted into a functional course. According to Dudley-Evans and St Johns (1998): “ESP was, for example, very influential in showing how a communicative language curriculum could be turned into either a functional-notional syllabus or a task-based syllabus” (Dudley-Evans & St Johns, 1998).
 
 The purpose of this article is to demonstrate a PBL method used in an ESP class aimed at aircraft maintenance engineers. The project involves students assembling a model aircraft jet engine. The goal of the project is to help students develop adequate knowledge about aircraft jet engines by acquainting them with the names and functions of the engine’s parts and also teaching them about its complex operation. Moreover, the project trains students on how to log their in-class activities into a weekly log that tracks their progress. At the end of the project, students reflect on their experience by completing a questionnaire that evaluates the outcomes of their learning. This helps the instructor assess the effectiveness of the project on the student’s language learning.

A Methodology for Surveying Indigenous Collections at an Australian Academic Library

This paper examines the University of Sydney Library’s development and piloting of a methodology to survey its Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultural collections, to enhance catalogue metadata and allow culturally sensitive material to be identified and protected. The research falls broadly within the interpretivist epistemology and draws methodologically on Participative Action Research. The pilot survey was conducted using a qualitative, collection-based approach, more specifically Direct Collection Analysis. A broad syntax was used to identify cultural content within the catalogue metadata, and items individually examined to determine the nature of their contents. The findings surface the benefits and shortcomings of the initial methodology. It is recommended future surveys be conducted using more specific terminology checklists and undertaken by a dedicated team that has received care and handling training for cultural materials and is led by an Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander expert in cultural collections.

Texnik matnlardagi terminlarni tarjima qilishning etakchiligi va o'zgaruvchanligi

This article describes some of the problems encountered in the translation of scientific and technical terms that are currently relevant and their causes. In fact, not only students, but also specialists face a number of difficulties when translating scientific and technical texts, because it is important to learn the terms of that particular field along with a set of general words in the translation. And it also gives some information about the adequacy in the field of translation and ways of using it in the technical texts. Different views and theories of the equivalence and adequacy concepts are revealed. The problem of technical translation is of great importance nowadays, therefore common difficulties that a translator faces are identified in the article. Moreover, recommendations on technical translation are given.

The origin, age, and conservation, of an ‘elevated platform’, Yarwondutta Rock, north-western Eyre Peninsula, South Australia

Yarwondutta Rock is a dimpled platform that was shaped at ground level by soil moisture but subsequently elevated, not because of local tectonism, but by the erosional lowering of the surrounding pedimented plains. Concave or flared slopes fashioned in the erstwhile piedmont were revealed during this erosional phase which took place in the earlier Pleistocene. The elevated platform is now buttressed against dissection by the calcreted surrounding pediments.
 It is concluded that in technical terms, Yarwondutta Rock appropriately can be referred to as an ‘elevated platform’.
 ‘Criticism and testing are the essence of our work.’ Remark by Herman Bondi on the occasion of Karl Popper’s 90th birthday anniversary (But with a reminder that a ‘criticism’ is an assessment or evaluation, and is neither implicitly, nor of necessity, adverse. C.R.T.).

COMMUNICATIVE AND PRAGMATIC PARAMETERS OF A SCIENTIFIC VIDEO BLOG AS INTERNET DISCOURSE GENRE

Scientific video blogs (vlogs) are quickly developing online platforms for sharing scientific information as video content and covering a wide range of scientific topics for disseminating scientific information to a broad auditorium. In this paper the communicative and pragmatic parameters of a scientific video blog as an internet discourse genre are studied; the characteristics and features of scientific video blogs as well as their contribution to online communication are analysed. One of the key features of scientific video blogs discussed in the paper is the use of visual presentations for sharing complex scientific concepts through images, graphs, animations, demonstrations, etc. in a visually attractive manner, which increases the overall understanding and engagement of the audience. The linguistic parameters of vloggers’ verbal delivery play an important role in delivering scientific information effectively. They should use clear and persuasive language, avoiding jargon and difficult technical terms that may hinder comprehension and provide conversational and informal language style, making the content more accessible to viewers of various backgrounds. The interactive approach creates a sense of community and permits to exchange the ideas and knowledge. Scientific video blogs aim to bridge the gap between scientific research and the general public, making complex concepts more understandable and relatable for the diverse target audience, for which vloggers should tailor their content, using relatable examples, analogies, and storytelling techniques to enhance comprehension. Scientific video blogs have appeared as a popular genre of internet discourse, offering a unique and engaging platform for the dissemination and popularization of scientific knowledge. By creating visual presentations, using clear verbal delivery, and interactive elements, vloggers effectively communicate complex scientific concepts to a diverse audience. The communicative and pragmatic parameters of purpose, target audience, and credibility further contribute to the success and impact of scientific video blogs and are the subjects of further linguistic research.

Should Green Always Get the Green Light? Translation of Figurative Technical Terms in View of Conceptual Integration Theory

The paper is a case study analysing the process of secondary term formation by looking into the introduction of figurative terms in the field of economics from English, as the current lingua franca in the field, into Croatian. Although the primary focus is on the terminological gap-filling function of figurative terms, the paper also explores what happens in translation when a term conveys more functions (e.g., ideology constitutive function). Our approach is usage-based in that our conclusions are founded on the observations of how the analysed figurative terms behave in real communication (official documents, research papers, magazines, newspapers, blogs, etc.). The paper also argues for the applicability of the Conceptual Integration Theory as a framework able to account for the meaning construal in the process of translation and for translators’ choices. The translational process is thus seen as discourse-pragmatic phenomenon involving the transfer of cognitive categories, crucially determined by both intercultural and interlingual factors.

A comparative study on effects of controlled English on the translatability of Technical texts from English to Turkish

Controlled language, as a subset of natural language, refers to the restricted or standardised use of lexicon, grammar and style. It has been hypothesised that the use of controlled language makes technical texts more translatable and therefore more understandable. This paper reports the results of an experimental study designed to test this hypothesis. The results showed that controlled technical language improved the comprehensibility and translatability of technical documentation in terms of accuracy, style and text quality. The study suggests that international companies should employ technical writers and translators who prioritise the language and extralinguistic norms of the target audience, rather than blindly adhering to the source text.

Terminology of movements and construction of physical exercises as the basis of the professional formation and improvement jf higher education students

The article analyzes the essence of the definitions "terminology," and "sports terminology" and their meaning for specialists in general and the role of the terminology of movements and the construction of physical exercises in the professional formation and improvement of higher education students of the specialty 017 - Physical culture and sports and 227 - physical therapy, occupational therapy of the first (bachelor's) level of higher education, in particular.
 Based on the analysis, synthesis and generalization of scientific and scientific-methodological literature, the Internet, as well as the educational programs of the above-mentioned specialities of the first (bachelor) level of higher education, such research methods as comparison, pedagogical observation, analysis of one's own longitudinal pedagogical experience of teaching academic disciplines of practical character, it is determined that the majority of students of higher education do not pay due attention to the acquisition of special terminology during their studies in higher education, and therefore, do not use it at the proper level in the practice of work in their specialty. At the same time, the terminology is always related to the content of specific science, theory and practice. There is the so-called special terminology of an engineer, philologist, lawyer, sociologist, doctor, designer, etc., as well as a specialist in the field of physical education and sports - sports terminology.
 It is noted that special terminology, including sports terminology, is the basis of professional communication, which requires deep knowledge, constant development and improvement from specialists. Mastering the terminology of movements by future specialists of the specialty 017 - Physical culture and sports and 227 - physical therapy, occupational therapy of the first (bachelor) level of higher education is an urgent necessity because it is the language of these specialties, which allows communication both between specialists and during interaction specialists with those who are learning physical exercises of various orientations.
 The article highlights the positive experience of solving the problem of forming among future specialists in the field of physical education and sports solid knowledge of the terminology of movements and its practical use during the construction of various physical exercises due to the introduction of a new educational discipline into the educational program according to (the student's choice) "Terminology and construction in physical education and sports." It is emphasized that this is an urgent necessity because the terminology of movements is the language of these specialties, which specialists in their work have to face every day during training and correction of physical exercises.
