Place of linguistic and country studies in the process of socio-cultural adaptation of foreign higher education applicants

The article deals with the peculiarities of the socio-cultural adaptation of foreign higher education applicants. The relevance of the study has to do with the significant flow of educational migrants to Ukraine. Most of them experienced “culture shock” due to the discrepancy between imaginary and real life in a foreign-speaking country with a history, culture, lifestyle, and traditions different from their own. Their socialization and language training are integral components of adaptation in a foreign-language educational and socio-cultural environment, of the process of personal growth. The author describes the peculiarities of communicative and sociocultural competences formation in the process of learning Ukrainian as a foreign language and considers the advisability of using sources that reveal the evolution of the country’s history and culture in the regional dimension. Knowledge of the region or city where foreigners study helps them navigate unfamiliar places better. The paper offers a view on the role and place of linguistic and country studies competence in the process of socio-cultural adaptation. The study of local history materials by foreign students should be accompanied by visual displays of examples of material and spiritual culture. It is advisable to conduct thematic excursions (real and virtual), round tables, contests, business games, and conferences. Foreign students should be involved in various communicative situations, which would allow them to remember the vocabulary and grammar of the Ukrainian language faster and better. It has been proved that studying the history and culture of another nation using language training of foreign citizens contributes to the formation of not only communicative competence but also a versatile personality. Understanding the differences in the historical processes, cultural and socio-economic development of individual countries and peoples contributes to the formation of the foundations of humanism and tolerance. The process of adaptation to a new foreign language environment promotes awareness of one’s own identity. Prospects for further research are seen in the improvement of forms and methods of classroom and extracurricular work, the use of new country studies materials to develop and increase the level of mastery of foreign students in all types of speech activities, to promote soft adaptation to new living conditions, and personal growth.

“TEACHING IN CORNERS” AS AN INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGY OF TEACHING RUSSIAN AS A FOREIGN LANGUAGE IN A VIETNAM UNIVERSITY

The article analyses the application of “teaching in corners” technology in teaching Russian as a foreign language in Ho Chi Minh city University of Pedagogy for Intermediate students taking the topic “Holiday” as an example. The specific stages of preparing for classes and teaching with the help of this technology are studied. A differentiated approach to teaching students is realized with the help of this technology in the Vietnamese higher education. The purpose of this article is to emphasize the results of the experimental work of implementing the technology for the second-year students with A2 level. The article summarises the research of Vietnamese teachers of various subjects and the author’s personal experience. When implementing this technology, the students not only mastered the theoretical knowledge in their specialty, but also activated their basic competencies, which are necessary for students of the 21st century. The corner is a certain place in the classroom, where there are worksheets with instructions and tasks for the topics. The teacher divides the class place into separate corners, considering the abilities and interests of individual students in several types of speech activities, such as listening, speaking, reading, and writing, based on grammar, vocabulary, and phonetics. During the lesson students join in many zones on tasks and at the end of each stage they can compare their results with the answer sheets and then discuss them with others. Besides, at the last stage, students make a presentation about their work in front of the audience. This increases the motivation of students for the choice and study of the prepared and suggested materials. Moreover, the teacher plays various roles in the teaching process. Before entering the classroom, the teacher selects the materials, which meet the needs, interests, and levels of students, then makes the duty tasks in each zone according to the learning goals. During the class time the teacher takes the role of an observer or a moderator. Therefore, there is more time to help weak students, answer questions at each stage of the study.

The Problem of the Development of Reading Literacy of Primary School Students: Methodological and Methodical Aspects

The problem of the reading literacy development of primary school students remains relevant in the modern educational space. Most of the theoretical reviews and practical recommendations aimed at solving this problem are based on the concept of reading literacy proposed in the PISA tests. When teachers developing methodological recommendations for the development of reading skills, they often lose sight of the fact that PISA texts and tasks are aimed at control, and not at the development of reading literacy. The authors of the international system for monitoring reading literacy apply the method of working with text when learning a foreign language and focus on information skills. If we use a similar technique to work with text in our native language, we will violate the patterns of perception and understanding of what is read, described in the studies of psycho- and sociolinguists. That is why the article discusses the methodological grounds for correcting the methodology for developing the reading literacy of primary school students. Based on the theory of speech activity, sociolinguistic studies of the text and the provisions of functional stylistics, the processes of perception and understanding of the text in the native language are described, the necessary components of meaningful reading are identified, which makes it possible to ensure progressive movement from a more primitive level of understanding of the text to a deeper one. Diagnostics of reading skills in sixth graders was carried out, gaps in the reading actions of students were identified. As intermediate results of the study, methodological materials for the development of reading literacy are presented, they are developed taking into account the described methodological foundations and difficulties found during the diagnostics. The continuation of the experimental work will make it possible to correct the content and methods used in methodological practice for the development of students’ reading literacy when working with texts in their native language. Keywords: reading literacy, text, reader actions, theory of speech activity, reading as a type of speech activity, text perception, text understanding, text interpretation

THE NEWEST TYPE OF UKRAINIAN-POLISH PHRASEBOOKS (Review of the phrasebook: Katarzyna Jakubowska-Krawczyk, Svitlana Romaniuk, Marta Zambrzycka. Szkolne rozmówki ukraińsko-polskie. Materiał pomocniczy dla nauczycieli nieznających jezyka ukraińskiego, którzy pracuja z uczniami z Ukrainy. Warszawa, 2022).

Phrasebooks is an interesting genre, which is characterized by a significant prevalence in various languages. Despite the fact that phrasebooks are quite popular in the modern world, there is still no consensus on the exact definition of the phrasebook genre. It is interpreted as a phrasebook, a dictionary, a study guide, a reference publication. Modern classifications of lexicographic sources do not always mention phrasebooks as a separate type of dictionary. The only thing that unites the examples of this genre is that phrasebooks appear as a reaction to an extralinguistic situation and serve to facilitate communication in a foreign language environment. After the beginning of the Russian-Ukrainian war, we have observed the appearance of different materials on the Internet (lists of words on a separate topic) and phrasebooks for various categories of Ukrainians who were abroad. At the same time, we can state that such phrases are also created for those social groups who take care of Ukrainian refugees abroad in their everyday life or professionally, for example, for volunteers, doctors, people who have accepted refugees into their homes. The article describes the structure, content, construction of a new type of Ukrainian-Polish phrasebook - a phrasebook for teachers who teach Ukrainian children in Poland during the Russian-Ukrainian war. Attention is drawn to the micro- and macrostructure of the phrasebook. The presence of new topics of conversation with regard to the psychological adaptation of a child in a foreign-speaking team is noted. The principles of arranging language material at the phonetic, lexical and grammatical levels are analyzed. The strategy of formation of communicative competence is described. Remarks were expressed regarding a) the Ukrainian language norms; b) methodical principles of laying out the material. Key words: phrasebook, lexical competence, communicative competence, situational approach, situation, types of speech activity.

Same person, different platform

Abstract The importance of digital data in forensic contexts has been increasing continuously (e.g., Grant 2013; Layton, Watters & Dazeley 2010; Wright 2013), with individuals holding an average of 8.5 different social media accounts in 2018 (Statista 2021a). Even though numerous studies have investigated registers on social media platforms (e.g., Seargeant & Tagg 2014; Zappavigna 2013), it has rarely been attempted to describe individual styles of one and the same person on different platforms – a research gap this paper attempts to address with the help of an exploratory hypothesis-generating study. The data is drawn from Instagram and Twitter, and comprises 1,800 posts from three media representatives and/or writers that hold accounts with both platforms. The results of the analysis suggest that the use of some features (e.g., emoji, hashtags) is strongly influenced by the respective platforms, while other features (e.g., patterns of punctuation, use of types of speech acts) remain stable and thus offer promising avenues for authorship analysis.

Key Problems of English Lexicology in Higher Education Institution

The article is devoted to the main problems faced by students of philology in the study of English lexicology. In the university course lexicology is considered as a branch of linguistics that has its own goals and methods of research, main tasks and systematic description of vocabulary according to its origin, development and current use. The paper emphasizes the importance of studying lexicology in the course of higher education institution, because knowledge of lexical units is the basis for the formation of communicative competence and for mastering a foreign language in general. The study of lexicology plays an important role in all types of speech activity (reading, speaking, writing and listening). A sufficient number of programs and textbooks on English lexicology served the material of the article. After analyzing the research material, we can identify the main thematic blocks that are traditionally studied in the course of English lexicology in higher education institution: word formation, semasiology and etymology of the word. The main problems in studying word formation are the distinction between "morpheme" - "allomorph" - "morph", recognizing different affixes, knowledge of which promotes better understanding of texts and the ability to speak succinctly orally and in writing, defining different ways of word formation. In the thematic block "Semasiology" the most problematic issues are the meaning of the word, as well as synonymy and polysemy, due to which a large number of new meanings of words appear in the English language. Studying the problems of the thematic block "Etymology of the word", including the classification of native and borrowed vocabulary, the presence in English of such concepts as etymological doublets, triplets and hybrids, etc., will allow students of philology not only to distinguish English lexemes from borrowed ones, but it will also show them the richness of the English language, its development, dynamics and improvement, it will cultivate respect for the history and language of the English people. Lexicology should be considered the basic of the English language course in the higher education institution, as the formation of lexical competence is an important component in the formation of foreign language communicative competence. In the process of studying the course, students learn new words, phrases, phraseological units that they need to develop skills of their usage in various types of productive (speaking, writing) and receptive (reading, listening) activities.

MELODIC ORGANIZATION OF THE PREACHER'S SPEECH IN FILM DISCOURSE

The article is devoted to the study of the peculiarities of the melodic organization of monological expressions of preachers of different ranks - the characters of English-language feature films. Based on the fact that the preacher's speech functions are not limited to preaching from the pulpit, but include speeches outside the temple and private conversations with parishioners on spiritual topics, these three types of speech activities were studied. The research material, which consisted of oral English sermons, speeches and conversations taken from five modern films, was subjected to auditive, auditory and electroacoustic analysis. Auditive analysis involved the selection from the general text of those phrasal units that most clearly demonstrate the prosodic characteristics in all parts of the studied sermons, speeches and conversations. Auditory analysis was aimed at determining the type of spiritual speech and identifying the degree of participation of certain prosodic parameters (melodic contour, phrasal stress, volume, tempo, rhythm, pause) in the realization of the intention of speech and expression of emotions in different parts of the text. Based on the auditive analysis, firstly, the prosodic differences between the three speech realizations at the level of perception were confirmed, and secondly, it was found that the melodic component of intonation is the second most informative component involved in speech differentiation and enhancing its influential effect.The complex auditory and instrumental analysis of the melodic characteristics of the preachers’ speech allows to conclude that there are integral and distinctive melodic parameters inherent in the three types of speech behaviour of the speakers during the sermon, speeches outside the church and conversations with parishioners in private. The private priests’ conversation with parishioners is characterized by the lowest melodic indicators, where facial expressions and kinetic means of expressiveness and emotionality come to the fore.
