The article offers a brief overview of the most prominent landmarks in the development of Cognitive Linguistics. It starts with the very inception of the field in the late 70s as a strong reaction against a doctrine of generative linguistics dominating at that time. Later the paper describes the cornerstone theories which were at the onset of this linguistic enterprise. From the very beginning the movement was rather diverse and still cannot be defined as one unified theory; however, there has always been one common factor in its approaches which is the centrality of meaning in language study. The works of the second wave of cognitive linguists, which are also outlined in the article, focused even more increasingly on cognitive functions providing insights into the nature and organization of human thoughts. Nowadays the postulates of Cognitive Linguistics are applied not only to all levels of language study but extended to other scientific areas.

This paper tries to provide an understanding of the context in pragmatic linguistic studies. Pragmatic linguistic studies are known as branches of linguistics which discuss the meaning of speech based on context. In this paper the context is understood as a conceptual framework about everything that is used as a reference in speaking or understanding speech. Context is classified into two types, namely linguistic and nonlinguistic. Linguistic contexts are contexts whose references are contained in previous speeches and nonlinguistic contexts are not found in speech or outside of language. The nonlinguistic context can be divided into four types, namely physical, psychological, social, and shared knowledge contexts.Keywords: Pragmatics, Context, Text, Meaning, Shared knowledge

Abstract Functional Discourse Grammar (FDG) assumes a strict separation between representational and interpersonal meaning, which are captured in independent levels within the grammar, and utterance meaning, which arises in contexts of language use. This article argues that this division of labour is problematic for the treatment of modifiers in the noun phrase (non-subsective adjectives in particular), which induce semantic changes in the designation of the noun they modify. It is further claimed that the view of semantics in the model should pivot around a weak interpretation of the notion of compositionality, which allows the modulation of linguistic meaning in context in the dynamic construction of term structures. This is shown to be compatible with the basic tenets of functional linguistics that FDG endorses and very much in line with the contextualist tradition that treats linguistic expressions as propositionally underspecified units which can be truth-conditionally enriched in actual use. The article shows that only minor modifications are necessary in the model, which basically amount to increasing the functional role of the Contextualizer.

Over the past decades, radical transformations have been observed in linguistics. The modern stage in the development of linguistics is characterized by polyparadigms, but the dominant role is assigned to the anthropocentric paradigm. Today, in the linguistic community, the main trends and principles of modern linguistics, in particular, the problem of the scientific paradigm is one of the most urgent and at the same time debatable problems. Mainly, this article focuses on the idea of changing the paradigms of knowledge in the development of linguistics and, in accordance with this, suggests their various terminological variations.

The article is devoted to the analysis and differentiation of the concepts «modern linguistics» and «neolinguistics» in philology. It is stated that the defined notions are unclearly represented in modern science and require additional argumentation by the chronology and content of new ideas, concepts and theories. The thesis about special social, cognitive and civilizational status of the neolinguistic directions of knowledge, their prospects in a person’s intellectual activity is being argued. The author’s attention is focused on the integral nature of the modern directions of linguistics, which corresponds to the development tendencies of science and its social functions. The overview of separate structural subdivisions, specialties and specializations, tendencies of development of new directions of linguistic science in the leading universities of the world is offered. Information on the establishment of the medialinguistic commission of the International Committee of Slavists, an authoritative international organization of modern researchers in the humanities, is provided. It is postulated that the idea of changing the structural-functional paradigm of the 20th century on the cognitive-communicative paradigm of the 21st century requires additional argumentation.

This study uses a mixed-effects model to examine the acquisition of targetlike patterns of phonological variation by 17 English-speaking learners of French during study abroad in France. Naturalistic speech data provide evidence for the incipient acquisition of a phonological variable showing sociostylistic variation in native speaker speech: the elision of /l/ in third-person subject clitic pronouns (il vient [il vjɛ̃] ∼ [i vjɛ̃] “he is coming”). Speech data are compared and correlated with the results of a social network strength scale designed for the study abroad learning context. Results demonstrate that phonological variation patterns are acquired in a predictable order based on token type and collocation and that social networks with native speakers are statistically significant predictors of phonological variation patterns.

Content analysts have made substantial progress in moving beyond the framework in which science news is assessed primarily in terms of accuracy and adequacy, but content-analytic studies of science news remain under-theorized and too narrowly focused. We recommend that content analysts (1) broaden their scope of inquiry to accommodate the great diversity of outlets and audiences for science news, and (2) offer more explicit and rigorous theoretical accounts of content-analytic data. To facilitate this latter recommendation, we suggest that content analysts borrow as needed from recent work in linguistics and rhetoric and reaffirm and rearticulate the connection between content analytic research and social theory. In addition, we discuss the need for content analysts to develop theories capable of documenting and understanding science news in the emerging era of electronic media.

Perspectives of modern linguistic literacy in the context of integration shifts are directly related to the process of social modernization and the problems of forming critical thinking. Linguistics and the language of communication have a powerful and contradictory influence on the education of the younger generation, often becoming a leading factor in its socialization and social learning. The formation of a person's linguistic literacy should be based on the main provisions - principles that determine: the system of requirements for linguistic means and conditions as a specific educational direction; a system of requirements for the content, organization and methodology of teaching linguistics of the educational course.

Such formulations necessarily cover a very diverse range of research methods, theories, etc. This approach can be seen as one of emphasising diversity and breadth within the field. Other attempts have been made to characterise Applied Linguistics in more discipline-like terms. Such broad characterisations however conceal a high degree of internal diversity.

Educational objectives and research have moved from a “monolingual bias” towards a multilingual perspective in comprehending the complex nature of multiple language acquisition. This shift has been echoed at an institutional level, with supranational bodies such as the European Union and the Council of Europe promoting multilingualism in and through education. A similar dynamic has emerged in Ireland, where there has been a move away from a “bilingual bias” towards a focus on multilingualism. While Irish educational policies have indeed shifted to support multiple language acquisition at school, obstacles remain regarding students’ ability to harness experiences with different languages. This article examines the nature of these obstacles and identifies their impact on learning French as a third language through quantitative and qualitative data gathered in both English- and Irish-medium schools. Questionnaire data provide insights into barriers to forging multilingual links, while interview data focus on specific examples of strategy transfer between languages and the emergence of metalinguistic awareness. Our findings, along with research and policy initiatives at European and Irish levels, are subsequently discussed in order to identify potential opportunities for supporting multilingual teaching practices and language policy in the Irish context and beyond.

Full textAbstract:
This paper explores the application of ecological linguistics to English teaching, highlighting its significance in enhancing language learning and promoting a deeper understanding of the interconnectedness between language, culture, and the environment. Ecological linguistics recognizes that language is inseparable from its social, cultural, and ecological contexts, emphasizing the role of context in language teaching. By incorporating ecological perspectives, English language educators can help learners comprehend how language usage varies across different contexts and how ecological factors influence linguistic choices, thereby improving learners' ability to communicate effectively in real-world situations. Additionally, ecological linguistics promotes the use of authentic language materials and real-world contexts, exposing learners to diverse linguistic practices and cultural diversity. It also acknowledges language variation and diversity, fostering tolerance, inclusivity, and intercultural competence. Furthermore, the integration of language and culture is emphasized, promoting cultural awareness and sensitivity among learners. The paper proposes strategies for English teaching within the Ecological Linguistics Dynamic Mode, such as establishing clear and adaptive teaching objectives, utilizing diverse teaching approaches, and implementing dynamic assessment. By adopting these strategies, educators can create a comprehensive and meaningful learning experience that extends beyond language structures, equipping learners with the necessary linguistic and cultural tools to navigate a diverse and rapidly changing world.

The goal of linguistics as a science should be a dynamic and cross-culturally sophisticated theory of human communication which reflects what people actually do. The integrating notion of such a theory is that of context — the way in which the particular is made meaningful by interactors. Meaning in context leads the linguist of whatever discipline to a new level of explanation for linguistic form itself — as a means to realize communicative intention.

Full textAbstract:
Since Romaine's (1982) pioneering work, historical sociolinguistics has been studying the relationships between language and society in its socio-historical context by focusing on the study of language variation and change with the use of variationist methods. Work on this interdisciplinary sub-field subsisting on sociology, history and linguistics is expanding, as shown, for example, by Milroy (1992), Nevalainen & Raumolin-Brunberg (1996; 2003), Ammon, Mattheier & Nelde (1999), Jahr (1999), Kastovsky & Mettinger (2000), Bergs (2005), Conde-Silvestre (2007), Trudgill (2010), or Hernández-Campoy & Conde-Silvestre (2012). These works have been elucidating the theoretical limits of the discipline and applying the tenets and findings of contemporary sociolinguistic research to the interpretation of linguistic material from the past. Yet in the course of this development historical sociolinguistics has sometimes been criticised for lack of representativeness and its empirical validity has occasionally been questioned. Fortunately, in parallel to the development of electronic corpora, the assistance of corpus linguistics and social history has conferred ‘empirical’ ease and ‘historical’ confidence on the discipline.

This study concerns the use of corpus linguistics methodology in psycholinguistics research. Ten linguistic metaphors were selected from English and American newspapers. After that, we identified the underlying conceptual metaphor based on the conceptual metaphor inventory by Lakoff and Johnson (1980, 1999). We seek to investigate what sort of knowledge EFL-learners use when trying to understand a linguistic metaphor. We examined how EFL-learners comprehend linguistic metaphors, firstly without using the context and then using the context. The sample comprised 221 Brazilian students and 16 American students at UCSC. We have also carried out an empirical research using WebCorp.

LINGUISTIC MEMORY STUDIES BY WOJCIECH CHLEBDA The purpose of this paper is to present the concept of linguistic memory studies, developed by WojciechChlebda, as a research program of modern linguistics. Wojciech Chlebda assumes that memory,both individual and collective, is strongly linked to language, that is, it participates both in the formingof memory content and in its material expression: its externalizing in verbal narrations (and, morebroadly, semiotic narrations). In this context, he identifies the following challenges facing linguisticmemory studies: description and classification of linguistic exponents of memory, description of theprocess of mapping collective memories, and research on collective oblivion.

The main goal of this article is to research the problems of religious phraseology in the light of modern scientific paradigm based on the materials of the Uzbek and Russian languages. The tasks of our research are to study the problems of transformation in phraseology, especially in religious phraseology, and to identify the factors that cause them. In this research, the following linguistic and interdisciplinary research methods were used to achieve the goal and fulfill the set tasks: the method of linguistic description; method of oppositions; methods of communicative linguistics, in particular, the transformational method; semantic-stylistic method. As a result of the research, the following factors lead to the transformation of religious phraseological units were identified: 1) updating the functions of religion in accordance with the times; 2) changing the realities of people's lifestyles; 3) translation in a new way of elements of the religious picture of the world of the people by a linguistic personality; 4) rethinking some phrases (the phrase has a completely different meaning due to ignorance of the context in which it is used); 5) grammatical changes. The article outlines the author's scientific views on the issues of definition and interpretation of phraseological units, characteristic of different stages of the development of phraseology, analysis of modern academic views on these units, as well as the theoretical foundations of the study of religious phraseological units as an object of study of theolinguistics, as a new synthetic science formed at the intersection of theology, religious anthropology and linguistics, and also analyzes the current state of studying the phenomenon

Conceptual research stands as a cornerstone in uncovering linguocultural values and the collective psyche of diverse peoples, offering profound insights into their worldview. This article endeavors to unveil the manifestation of temporal context within historical epics, deeply intertwined with the epochs and narratives of the respective societies. The study seeks to elucidate the collective consciousness and societal understanding prevalent during the periods under study, achieved through an analysis of linguistic expressions denoting temporal concepts within historical poetic texts. Drawing upon scholarly evidence, the article delineates the mechanisms and distinctive attributes characterizing the portrayal of situational time within historical epics. It underscores the prominent role of grammatical constructs, particularly the active utilization of the verb's grammatical category, in conveying temporal nuances. Furthermore, linguistic analysis reveals the pivotal role of the temporal dimension in discerning historical veracity within these literary compositions. The scholarly significance of this research lies in its theoretical contributions to cognitive linguistics, linguoculturology, and the study of linguistic folklore. Additionally, the practical implications extend to educational contexts, offering enriching content for specialized courses such as "Linguistic Folklore Studies," "Cognitive Linguistics," and "Linguoculturology," thereby fostering a deeper understanding of temporal dynamics within cultural narratives.

Structural and semantic linguistics has accumulated colossal experience in the systematization of language units, the relationships between them, has formed a unified view of the language as a complex system. Cognitive and discursive paradigm in linguistics has made it possible to explain linguistic and speech characteristics with the context and attracted the cognitive nature of the linguistic sign as a full-fledged component of analysis. Transferring the idea of anthropocentrism to the figure of the second participant in communication, it came to the conclusion that the last component plays large role in the communicative interaction between addresser - text - addressee, and that the interpretive potential of the text depends on the cognitive abilities of this addressee and his discursive baggage. In the/given article the listed characteristics of the state of modern linguistics made it possible to try to identify an interdependent relationship between the structural and semantic characteristics of language units selected by the author of a literary text from the arsenal of the language and woven into its syntagmatics, and the cognitive and discursive «subtext» that linguistics extracts from the text, which helps expose the author’s intentions more clearly. The material for the analysis made fragments of works by the classical Russian literature authors (I.A. Bunin, I.A. Goncharov, M.M. Prishvin, A.P. Chekhov), structural and semantic analysis was used as a leading method, supplemented with elements of content and discourse analysis. The novelty of the research lies in the desire to make a linguistic analysis of the speech canvas of a literary text in the context of new explanatory «horizons» that have opened up due to the cognitive-discursive paradigm. The study of the linguistic «details» of specific fragments of literary texts has shown that the interpretation of a literary text is based on the characteristics of linguistic units (morphemes, words, word forms, syntactic constructions, CSI, etc.) described in detail within the framework of the structural and semantic paradigm, expanding the view of the contextual environment (in this case - already broad context) allows introduce into the interpretation arguments that depend on the interpreter’s own reading and within his value system.

Historical linguistics is a field that, perhaps more than other branches of linguistics, can be said to exhibit a certain conservatism. To be clear, this term is not meant in any traditional political sense. Rather it is meant to capture the notion that, as a discipline, diachronic studies seem to accept and build on previous theories and empirical findings to a greater extent than do most synchronic subdisciplines. This may be because data are comparatively rare and hard to come by. One result of this scarcity is that, once analyzed, there are fewer opportunities for reanalysis predicated on new data. There are, of course, occasions when more or less radical proposals are brought forward subsequently, which result in debates of the kind which are much more common in synchronic syntax, say, or phonology. The reconstruction of the Indo-European consonant system (Beekes 1995: 132–4 provides a summary), for example, continues to be debated almost two hundred years after it was first proposed.

Full textAbstract:
The article discusses methodological approaches to forensic linguistic research concerning the cases based on the juridical assessment of speech deeds. As an object of forensic linguistics the speech act lies at the interface between the conceptual spheres of linguistics and jurisprudence. When the speech deeds whose content is defined by the law (threats, blackmail, appeal, solicitation) are performed under certain communicative circumstances they could be qualified as criminal offences. Juridical assessment of such speech deeds must pursue the lines of reasoning lying beyond jurisprudence and pertaining to linguistic pragmatics. The principle of linguistic parameterization of the language crime is essential for resolution of the wide range of tasks confronting forensic linguistics investigation. Parameterization stipulates for the comprehensive list of indispensible communicative features as its linguopragmatic elements. The combination of the sum-total of linguopragmatic elements of the speech deed in the relevant communicative context is tantamount to its perpetration. Through the example of the speech act «threat» methodological approaches are described and their theoretical feasibility is discussed. The differences between the casual understanding of «threat», on the one hand, and its linguopragmatic qualification, on the other hand, are examined. Among the distinctive features of the speech act «threat» we distinguish those conditioned by the essential characteristics of the respective speech genre and those conditioned by the juridical qualification of the elements of the linguistic offence. The cases of parameterization of the linguistic crime and of the introspection of the elements of the crime in forensic linguistics are exemplified.

The author emphasizes the significance of extra-linguistic factors in coining new phraseological units, which are viewed as translators of the national linguistic picture of the world. The article also examines lexical and stylistic features of phraseological units with a “Sea” component in English. The research reveals national and cultural traits reflected in phraseological units of this kind. The article is dedicated to the perspectives on the development of contemporary English phraseology, some phraseology studies implemented by modern linguists are analyzed. New tendencies, such as cognitive linguistics, and comparative and typological research of English phraseology, are described in the article. The trends mentioned above are quite up-to-date for contemporary linguistics and are aimed at solving language as well as human cognition problems.

Around the time I realized that I would be spending the better part of my twenties in graduate school, I saw an episode of the Simpsons that had an embarrassingly profound effect on me. The episode's conceit was alluringly simple: What would happen if the city of Springfield was entrusted to its smartest citizens rather than to politicians or bureaucrats? Or, in the blunt diagnosis of Julius Hibbert, a Springfield physician (and one of the city's smartest citizens), “Why do we live in a town where the smartest have no power and the stupidest run everything?” Why couldn't things be different?

Full textAbstract:
We report on a project investigating the lexico-grammatical properties of English scientific texts. The goal of this project is to gain insight into the linguistic effects of two scientific disciplines coming into contact with one another (e.g. computer science and linguistics) and possibly forming a merged, new discipline (i.e. computational linguistics). The crucial question to be addressed is how such merged disciplines construe their own, distinctive identity and which kinds of linguistic means they employ to this end. To approach this question, we apply the notion of register, i.e. functional variation or variation according to context of use. On the basis of a corpus of scientific research articles from nine scientific domains, we explore selected lexico-grammatical patterns and assess their contribution to register formation.

Full textAbstract:
The article analyzes "state and status" of functional stylistics in Ukraine in the beginning of the 21st century in the categories and concepts of modern linguistics. The research context of the analysis is determined by comparison with the stylistic issues of the XVI International Congress of Slavists, held on August 20-27, 2018 in Belgrade (Serbia). Issues of synchronization of scientific consciousness with time of culture, its chronological sections, configurations of development, evolution of cultural consciousness, changes of cultural verbalized patterns and reasons for emergence of new ideas and non-standard intellectual reflection in the scientific knowledge of linguistic consciousness are being actualized. It is stated that the triad "human - science - time of culture" is dominant in linguistics, defining at the same time the peculiarities of the information age: the synthesis of humanistic tradition and new, paradoxical scientific ideas is quite representative for world linguistics, which is clearly represented in Ukrainian stylistics. The author unfolds the thesis about the formation of scientific consciousness as an existential search for the spiritual affinity of researchers. Thus, in the development of functional stylistics, one can observe continuity from F. de Saussure to the linguists of the XXI century, where the Geneva, Baden or Prague schools ideologically formed various national scientific discourses. The problematic aspects in the development of modern stylistics with their projection into Ukrainian linguistics are considered: the systematic nature of operational stylistic terminology, the diffusion of the objectivity of various areas of linguistics, in particular, functional stylistics, communicative linguistics and genomics, logics of formation of neolinguistics as a subject area that relies on synthesis of linguistic functionalism and other branches of human sciences, etc. The criteria of the Ukrainian research perspective in modern stylistics are formulated.

Full textAbstract:
Acoustic and articulatory properties of Ukrainian vowels are investigated in this study and a full set of relevant IPA notations are proposed. The notations are shown in the vowel diagram and the table. The results of the earlier acoustic invariant speech analysis based on special software, auditory and spectrum analysis were used and the results are discussed in the context of general and Ukrainian phonetic laws governing language evolution and acoustic properties of non-stressed vowels in relation to their stressed cognates. Such combined approach resulted in a more detailed vowel inventory than proposed heretofore. The findings of this research contribute to better understanding of Ukrainian language and its special features in comparison with other world languages that may have substantial practical use in various phonetic and translation studies, as well as in modern linguistic technologies aimed at artificial intelligence development, machine translation incorporating text-to-speech conversion, automatic speech analysis, recognition and synthesis, and in other areas of applied linguistics.

The globalization changes in the world contribute to the growing importance of scientific knowledge in general and fundamental science in particular. Current difficulties in understanding of the mechanisms of possible changes in the language system require attention to enriching the methodology of linguistics with an interdisciplinary scientific toolkit in order to obtain new linguistic knowledge, and also reorients researchers from the position of analysis to the position of synthesis.

The question of use of second language speakers’ personal narratives-in-interview as data has been widely debated in the applied linguistics field. I subscribe to scholars before me who argue for an analysis beyond content but one that also takes into consideration context and form. Bamberg’s positioning theory (1997; 2004) guides this analysis as I examine the storied world, the storytelling world, and the existing discourses in the personal narratives-in-interview by a woman from the island of Chuuk residing in Hawai‘i. I discuss the linguistic, rhetorical, and interactional properties of her narratives, how she positions herself in relation to ideologies of language and identity that have value in her spaces, and juxtapose them against sociolinguistic and socio-historic contexts in which they were produced. I argue that by looking at the interdependence between all positioning levels (i.e., context, content, and form), it is possible to understand how the narrator positions herself with regards to societal discourses on language and identity both in the micro and macro contexts of the interview space and of Hawai‘i.

In connection with the context of the nation-language-culture connection, special attention was paid to the world of the native speaker, this led to the fusion of linguistics with other sciences. As a result of this, the integrative nature of linguistic research is being formed in modern linguistics. Among them is the sphere of cultural linguistics, which considers language as a symbol of national worldview, culture, history, ethnic spirit. In the context of Ethnolinguistics, the continuity of the language culture is clearly manifested. Studying the work of the scientist AkhmetBaitursynov from such a new cognitive point of view, within the framework of a new paradigm, is of great importance. In A. Baitursynov's work «Literaturestudies», there are linguistic units that reveal the national worldview. Therefore, the analysis and disclosure of the ethnolinguistic nature of the scientist's heritage determines the relevance of our work.

Full textAbstract:
When defining the term Discourse, the difference between its content and structure converges on the basis of speech, the presentation of one's own thoughts. Social activity requires consideration of discourse in the context of communicative activity, taking into account its inseparable socio-psychological characteristics. In linguistic science, even in the context of the structure of discourse, the vision of scientists-researchers in the general solution has not been formed. Nevertheless, it is obvious that there is a certain system of steps of organized communication and the structure of the exchange of speech actions. In the article, some typology sections are conventionally named “typology”, “structural typology”, “comparative typology”, “regional typology”, “counterlinguistics”, “linguistic universals”, “translation grammar”, “comparative typological linguistics” and others. The terms “matching” and “comparison method” are often synonymous. Such a proliferation of terms shows that linguistic typology is not yet firmly established as a science. In linguistics, it includes the discipline of each section and all types of linguistic typology, the juxtaposition of comparative and typological methods, the typological description of related and unrelated languages, characteristic and uncharacteristic studies, etc. To determine such contradictory views, these studies were and are necessary. On the one hand, modern journalistic discourse is characterized by an abundance of template forms of Moderna, ready-made blocks, turns and speech stereotypes. On the other hand, journalism is full of methods and forms that are not fixed in the language sphere and created in a certain speech situation with a certain communicative purpose. Among the many media typical of Moderna discourse, the main focus is on influencing the information and emotions of the addressee and achieving a positive communicative result. These concepts are also significantly disclosed in the article.

Full textAbstract:
This paper deals with a prosecutor’s closing argument in a murder trial I did fieldwork on in California in 2000. This discourse is analyzed through the conceptual blend of the deceased victim ‘testifying’ through legal evidence. The emergence and argumentative power of this blend is examined vis à vis the participants’ knowledge of the embedding discourse and trial as well as their conceptualizations of what a trial is. I suggest a definition of a trial as a ‘semantic network’ (Langacker, 1987), which combines lawyers’ common definitions with the nature of factive and fictive interaction in Western courts (Pascual, 2002, 2006). The claim is that language users (meta)operate with intertwined layers of context conceptualization, constraining conceptual blending operations. The paper integrates cognitive linguistics with cognitive sociology (Cicourel, 1973) and cognitive and linguistic anthropology (Hutchins, 1990; Duranti, 1997). It also calls for the qualitative study of language through in-depth enthnography that ensures data validity.

Currently, computational linguistics and natural language processing technologies are based on the extensive use of data – the corresponding linguistic corpora. Therefore, corpus linguistics, which studies the methods of creating and using such corpuses, has become one of the leading directions in modern linguistics in a relatively short time. Ensuring the widespread use of the Azerbaijani language in the context of globalization is a state policy, and its implementation requires the development and application of appropriate computational linguistics technologies. One of the important prerequisites for the creation of such technologies is the availability of suitable linguistic corpora that meet modern requirements. For this reason, this article analyzes the existing linguistic corpora for the Azerbaijani language, identifies the scientific and practical problems of the formation of these corpora, and gives recommendations for solving them

Abstract Juraj Dolník belongs to the most notable Slovak linguists, next to Ján Horecký (1920 – 2006) or Jozef Mistrík (1921 – 2000). His research areas comprise mainly general linguistics, Slovak studies and German studies. In the synchronic Slovak studies, he has devoted himself thoroughly to the study of lexicology, as well as to individual aspects of cultural stylistics, sociolinguistics and linguistic pragmatics. His ideas about the linguistic culture have become significant stimuli for the Slovak linguistic and cultural theory and language counseling practice. He has also laid the theoretical foundations for studies of linguistic otherness in the Slovak linguistic environment. As a distinguished professor emeritus, he authored a modern trilogy about language and society (2017 – 2021), thus providing further conspicuous methodological and theoretical inspirations for Slovak linguistics, and, in a wider context, also for Slavic linguistics of the 21st century.

Full textAbstract:
The author considers the problem of linguistic terminology in the context of changes which took place in linguistics of the late XXth century and the beginning of the XXIth century under the influence of postmodern culture. The changes in linguistics depend primarily on such characteristics of postmodernism as irrationalism (anti-scientism), pragmacentrism (sociocentrism) and simulacrism. The author shows how linguistic terminology changes in the new cultural conditions and distinguishes between four phenomena: ambisemy, transfusion, complication and approximation. Taking a critical (normative) methodological position on the latest processes in the filed of terminology, the author considers some criteria for evaluating innovations.
