Financial impact of using EUR call options to hedge accounts receivables
Authors:   Grace College, School of Business, Indiana, USA, McEwan Kenneth B.
Published: November 2021

International business has grown rapidly in recent years as companies seek to take advantage of expanding supply chain opportunities. As companies enter into contracts to take advantage of engineering, production, and cost reduction capabilities of the global supply chain, they may be creating a foreign currency exchange rate risk. The purpose of this research was to determine the EUR/USD exchange rate risk within a relatively short time frame such as in 60-day accounts receivable and if using currency options to hedge this risk would be financially beneficial on a transactional basis. The quantitative study examined the 60-day EUR/USD exchange rate fluctuation and the use of currency call options to hedge the risk associated with EUR/USD currency fluctuations. The researcher analyzed 13 years of historical EUR/USD currency data and 10 years of actual EUR call options premiums for this research paper. The researcher concluded that the variability of the EUR/USD over 60-days does pose financial risk to a company. The study also found that using currency call options to hedge this 60-day exchange rate risk resulted in an overall transactional financial loss as compared to no hedging. However, research studies have shown that the use of hedging instruments to smooth financial results may result in lower overall financing costs which could offset the hedging transactional costs. This study did not address the benefits of the use of hedging to smooth financial results or obtain other related financial benefits. The researcher recommends that a firm should recognize the exchange rate risks it may be establishing within 60-day EUR or USD payable contracts and develop an appropriate hedging strategy.
The external sector shocks and macroeconomics in Nigeria
Authors:   Department of Economics, School of Economics, University of Ibadan Ibadan, Oyo State, Nigeria, Abubakar Ohiomoje Iyemifokhae Abubakar
Published: November 2021

The study examines the relationship between some key macroeconomic indicators in Nigeria and the external sector. During the period under review, it was discovered that crude oil had a lion’s share of Nigeria’s export earnings and the international demand for the country’s non-oil exports was unimpressive due to the development of synthetic alternatives, discriminative tariffs and new entrants in the global market (Central Bank of Nigeria, 2008). Consequently, most of the research on this topic hinged their framework on shocks from the oil sector (see Lukman and Olomola, 2016). In contemporary times, however, the contribution of crude oil to Nigeria’s gross domestic product has been dwindling. As at 2019, the entire oil and gas industry contributed less than 10% of Nigeria’s gross domestic product (Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), 2019). There was the need to examine the external sector from a more comprehensive approach and framework. Therefore, this study evaluated the impact of shocks from Nigeria’s terms of trade and major foreign stock market index on macroeconomics in Nigeria. The methodology adopted for this study is the vector autoregressive technique, impulse response function and the error variance decomposition method. The findings show that the gross domestic product, price level and interest rate respond strongly in the short run (1-2 years), gradually fluctuates in the medium term (3-5 years) and become stable in the long run (6-10 years) due to shocks from the Dow Jones index and Nigeria’s terms of trade. Thus, intervention policies should focus on mitigating the impact of external sector shocks on macroeconomics in the short and medium terms when the impact is enormous.

An 18-month-old mixed breed steer had incoordination, blindness, and opisthotonos for ten days. The clinical condition progressed to lethargy and lateral recumbency, and the steer was euthanized due to poor prognosis. There is a cyst located mainly on the left side of the brain, moderately distending the third ventricle and protruding through the transverse fissure into the right dorsal thalamic region anterior to the rostral colliculi. The cyst is 3.3 x 3.5 x 3 cm, consists of a thin transparent membrane filled with translucent fluid, and has numerous slightly elongated opaque white structures of approximately 1 mm (protoscolices) adhered to the inner aspect of the capsule (Fig. 1). The cyst causes compression and atrophy of the thalamus and hippocampus, more pronounced on the left side (Fig. 2). There is dilation of the lateral ventricles, moderate on the left side and mild on the right side. The mesencephalic aqueduct is moderately distended.

Mathematical modeling nonstationarity of biotechnological production of lactic acid: stability
Authors: Gordeeva Yuliya Lvovna , Borodkin Aleksey Georgievich , Gordeeva Elena Lvovna , Komissarov Yuriy Alekseevich
Published: November 2021

The article presents the calculated ratios of indicators determining the stationary states of the lactic acid production process. Three technologies that are most often mentioned in scientific publications are identified: the technology of using strains of microorganisms to produce biomass is a technology that is extremely rarely used; the fairly common technology of using strains of microorganisms to produce lactic acid with the consumption of the main substrate (most often glucose); the promising technology of obtaining lactic acid using, in addition to the main substrate, a component that reproduces the main substrate in the synthesis process. For each technology, the equations of material balance for stationary and non-stationary conditions, a generalized differential equation for non-stationary conditions, and a characteristic equation are given. The formulas for estimating the coefficients of differential equations and the coefficients of the characteristic equation are also given. The equations for non-stationary conditions according to the last two technologies are based on the use of the Taylor series expansion of functions with the preservation of only the first terms of the expansion, i. e. deviations from stationarity in small. The characteristic equation is formed using the eigenvalues . The methodology for all three technologies is given, which allows us to assess the stability of the considered stationary state – the Hurwitz method. For all three technologies, numerical results are obtained for estimating the coefficients of the characteristic equations Pi. Tabular values of the coefficients are given, according to which stability estimates for the dilution rate of 0.1 h–1, 0.2 h–1, 0.3 h–1 are obtained using determinants according to the Hurwitz matrix. The results of numerical estimates for the stability of stationary states for all three technologies are presented. The estimates were based on the indicators of constants published in scientific studies.

The uninvited guests of our microbiome: Helicobacter pylori and Epstein-Barr virus and their role in gastric cancerogenesis
Authors: Dzikowiec Magdalena , Pastuszak-Lewandoska Dorota
Published: November 2021

It is well established that human body is an ecosystem for numerous microorganisms: bacteria, fungi, eukaryotic parasites, and viruses. They form a “microbiome” that under conditions of homeostasis remains in a friendly mutual relationship with the host. However, the composition and diversity of this microbe community is dynamic and can be changed under the influence of environmental factors, such as diet, antibiotic therapy, lifestyle, and the host’s genotype and immunity. The result of gut microbiome dysbiosis can lead even to cancer. The aim of this review is the description of the healthy gastrointestinal microbiome and the role of two infectious agents: Gram-negative bacteria Helicobacter pylori and Epstein-Barr virus in the development of gastric cancer in terms of gut dysbiosis. H. pylori is the most important pathogen of gastric microbiome with clear impact on its diversity. Coinfection with Epstein-Barr virus causes chronic gastritis, and the inflammatory process is significantly increased. The process of carcinogenesis begins with chronic inflammation that causes atrophic gastritis, intestinal metaplasia, dysplasia, and finally cancer. It has been proven that chronic inflammatory infection caused by infectious agents increases the risk of stomach cancer. Molecular methods that are progressively used to explore the human microbiome provide hope that this knowledge will be used for future diagnoses and therapy in the state of its dysbiosis and in cases of gastric cancer.
Jak HPV wysokiego ryzyka indukuje optymalne środowisko dla własnej replikacji w różnicującym się nabłonku
Authors: Kożańska Aleksandra , Baldy-Chudzik Katarzyna
Published: November 2021

Abstrakt

Wirusy brodawczaka ludzkiego (HPV) są często czynnikami wywołującymi niegroźne dla człowieka infekcje, ale przetrwałe zakażenie niektórymi typami HPV jest poważnym zagrożeniem dla zdrowia, ponieważ jest związane z wieloma nowotworami, w tym z rakiem szyjki macicy oraz rosnącą liczbą nowotworów głowy i szyi. Cykl replikacyjny HPV jest ściśle zależny od różnicowania komórek wielowarstwowego nabłonka, co oznacza, że genom wirusa musi być replikowany za pomocą różnych mechanizmów na różnych etapach różnicowania komórek. Ustanowienie infekcji i utrzymywanie genomu wirusa zachodzi w proliferujących komórkach nabłonka, gdzie dostępność czynników replikacji jest optymalna dla wirusa. Jednak produktywna faza cyklu rozwojowego wirusa, w tym produktywna replikacja, późna ekspresja genów i wytwarzanie wirionów, zachodzi w wyniku różnicowania się nabłonka w komórkach, które prawidłowo opuszczają cykl komórkowy. Wirus wykorzystuje wiele szlaków sygnalizacyjnych komórki, w tym odpowiedź na uszkodzenia DNA (DDR, DNA damage response) do realizacji produktywnej replikacji własnego genomu. Zrozumienie mechanizmów związanych z cyklem replikacyjnym HPV jest potrzebne do ustalenia właściwego podejścia terapeutycznego do zwalczania chorób powodowanych przez HPV.
Selected Morphotic Parameters Differentiating Ulcerative Colitis from Crohn’s Disease
Authors: Kasperczuk Anna
Published: November 2021

This paper presents a method that binds statistical and data mining techniques, which aims to support the decision-making process in selected diseases of the digestive system. Currently, there is no precise diagnosis for ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn’s disease (CD). Specialist physicians must exclude many other diseases occurring in the colon. The first goal of this study is a retrospective analysis of medical data of patients hospitalised in the Department of Gastroenterology and Internal Diseases, Bialystok, and finding the symptoms differentiating the two analysed diseases. The second goal is to build a system that clearly points to one of the two diseases UC or CD, which shortens the time of diagnosis and facilitates the future treatment of patients. The work focuses on building a model that can be the basis for the construction of action rules, which are one of the basic elements in the medical recommendation system. Generated action rules indicated differentiating factors, such as mean corpuscular volume, platelets (PLTs), neutrophils, monocytes, eosinophils, basophils, alanine aminotransferase (ALAT), creatinine, sodium and potassium. Other important parameters were smoking and blood in stool.

Human skin has been classified as a non-volatile memristor and it is shown that information can be stored within for at least three minutes. Here we investigate whether it is possible to store information up to 20 minutes. Furthermore, we investigate whether the information can be based on four different states, not just two (binary). We stored the information into the skin of the forehead of the test subjects under three different electrodes, which allows in principle for 64 different combinations (3 electrodes, 4 states) and one can think of numbers on the base of four. For this experiment, we decided on the numbers 1234 and 3024 (that correspond to numbers 27 and 50 in the decimal system). Writing of the different states was done by the application of DC voltage pulses that cause electro-osmosis in the sweat ducts (nonlinear electrical measurements). Based on our results, we were not able to distinguish between four different states. However, we can show that binary information storage in human skin is possible for up to 20 minutes.
Reflections on the Independent Mass Media of Post-Soviet Countries and Political Competitiveness
Authors: Steblyna Nataliia , Dvorak Jaroslav
Published: November 2021

The aim of this paper is to analyse political activity in the mass media discourses of states with more democratic and more authoritative regimes respectively, so as to show a clear difference in the context of a formal analysis of mass media content. The current study examines political news on qualitative online media portals in Lithuania, Belarus and Ukraine. Thirty years ago, these states began their independent transition from a closed system to openness/democracy. However, at today’s transition point, only Lithuania is considered a democratic country. In different periods Ukraine has been considered an example of competitive authoritarianism, while Belarus deviated towards complete authoritarianism and dictatorship. All political news items between 2005–2020 (for delfi.lt – since 2007) were collected with the help of the Python program. To measure the indicators, several Python programs were designed. The results of the research confirmed that the intensity of political activity differs in the mass media discourses of states with more democratic (Lithuania, Ukraine) and more authoritative (Belarus) regimes. Furthermore, a clear difference was shown in terms of five indicators, average indicators and the dynamics thereof.

Occupational health and safety in construction projects: a case study on chemical industry sector
Authors: Costa Olga , Matias João , Pimentel Carina
Published: November 2021

Background: This study was conducted to demonstrate the importance of occupational health and safety (OHS) management in construction project environments, taking into account the successful development of those projects. The associated problems in OHS management projects were also studied, as substantial empirical research has shown this is a complex theme with a large number of associated factors. Methods: In this study three projects developed in the Portuguese petrochemical industry were analysed using documentary analysis, on-going interaction with workers and direct observations of work activity. A systematic literature review was also carried out. Results: Strengths and weaknesses related to OHS management of the three analysed projects were identified. Grounded on the case studies results a proposal of OHS management in construction projects, in a recommendations format, is also presented. Conclusion: Good results from OHS management in projects can be obtained as long as it is focused on success factors such as: top management commitment; line responsibility; involvement of all employees and, mainly, of direct and indirect managers. Well-defined OHS responsibilities; a well sized and structured organization and the creation of an honest, healthy, motivating and useful OHS environment team with a competent and dynamic coordinator leader are also important success factors.
Vital exhaustion and psychosocial health among offshore personnel working in the Philippines
Authors: Lagarde Michael
Published: November 2021

The offshore environment is a high-risk and demanding workplace exposing crew members to various physical and psychological stressors. Health and safety programs are implemented to prevent accidents and promote well-being among personnel. This study aims to determine the association between vital exhaustion and psychosocial health among offshore workers in the Philippines. Quantitative non-experimental descriptive correlational design was used and standardized questionnaires namely: Maastricht Vital Exhaustion (MVEQ) and Copenhagen Psychosocial Questionnaires (COPSOQ III) were utilized to gather data from fifty-five respondents (54 male; Mage = 42.69). Majority of them are assigned in the maintenance and marine departments with an average offshore experience of 11.69 years. Offshore workers have low vital exhaustion (VE) levels and good psychosocial health (PH) scores. Highest recorded scores for PH fall under Influence and Development, Outcome Scales and Interpersonal relations and leadership. Lower mean scores in Further Parameters and Demands at work also translate to favourable PH. There was a significant relationship among four PH scales and VE levels of respondents. There was also a significant relationship between VE and the demographic profile of offshore workers in terms of job assignment and work type however there was no significant association between PH and all demographic variables considered in the study. Majority of the participants claimed that environmental conditions are well-designed and safety concerns are managed appropriately in the workplace. The responses from offshore personnel provide a clear picture of their overall health. The resilience and camaraderie among the all-Filipino crew played a major role in keeping their VE levels low and promoting good PH scores.
Testing and practical validation of an individual safety performance assessment methodology – the SSP System
Authors: Mira R. , Jacinto Celeste , Dias B. , Carrasqueira M. , Fundo A.
Published: November 2021

The “Safety Score Permit” (SSP) is a new tool that focuses on behaviour and is based on a point system which allows individual performance’s tracking, thus encouraging safe actions. The present study aims at verifying the applicability and practical validation of the first SSP version; the ultimate goal is to evaluate its coverage within different industrial contexts and identify limitations and opportunities for improvement. A pilot implementation was conducted in three large companies, presented as three case studies. The records of safety behaviour observations (SBO) of each case were analysed to verify if all the “observed deviations” fitted into the classes and subclasses typified in the system. Although the study basis was the same in all three cases, in two of them the research was based on existing SBO records collected in 2019, whilst in the 3rd case there was a much higher interaction throughout the work. In this case, the process was started from scratch, including the SBO procedure, its monitoring and subsequent data analysis, to create the necessary conditions for the implementation of the full system. The results obtained revealed that, in general, the SSP platform has the ability to cover most deviations identified in an organization. The system has the potential to become a useful and transparent tool to monitor employees’ safety performance at all hierarchical levels; it also helps to identify weaknesses in the companies’ OHS processes. This work was essentially exploratory but it shed light on how to improve the system further and also unveiled new opportunities. A key issue to enhance SSP as a management tool is to expand its scope to all types of human errors, thus offering better support to strategic OHS decisions.
The Interpersonal Meanings of Words and Images in Ads: An Intersemiotic Complementary View
Authors: Khristianto K , Khanifa Fina
Published: November 2021

This study aims to find out the interpersonal meaning and the intersemiotic complementary in public service advertisement of selected violence against children prevention campaign. Employing Royce’s intersemiotic complementary framework (2001), it analyzed how the visual and verbal signs work together to create common messages sent to the public as viewers/readers. Based on the analysis, it is found out that the five aspects of visual features --visual contact, social distance, involvement, power relation, and modality—have worked together to construct the interpersonal meaning. The close up shot showing the detail of the bruises on the nose emphasizing a high modality; it represents a high naturality. The boy in bruises looks directly at viewers’ eyes, demanding a help from them. The equal frame on the picture tells the readers that the boy can be part of every one’s life. It may happen in any place and the readers are asked to do take an action. In terms of verbal features, the declarative sentences are used to inform the facts. It is to highlite the clear message in the image, saying that such a violence may be taken by a mother who inherits the boy’s nose—the one who actually loves him very much, but the situation has changed her a lot. Through the way the producers organize the verbal text the readers may take their action to stop the child abuse. Both visual and verbal modes are contributes to convey interpersonal meaning. The intersemiotic complementary in the advertisement is realized interpersonally through the meanings projected in both modes through the reinforcement of address.

The study aims at ascertaining the actual implication of bride pricing system in traditional marriages in Igbo land. A total of fifty respondents (thirty women and twenty men) from the five states that make up the southeast zone in Nigeria were selected for the study. Being a qualitative research, the study adopted the ethnographic research design and employed a purposive non-probability sampling method in selecting the respondents. The study made use of focused group discussions, unstructured interview and participants’ observation method as instruments of data collection. The collection of data lasted for a period of six months from June 2020 to November 2020. The research is anchored on Radical and Snail sense Feminism theories and data for the study were analysed using descriptive thematic method. Findings from the study reveal that payment of bride price does not reduce women to mere commodities in Igbo land. It also reveals that it gives undue privileges to men in Igbo land among other findings.  Finally, it was shown that Igbo men and women still regard bride price payment as an important aspect of their culture which should not be abolished.

Published: November 2021

Subject. The article addresses crowdlending platforms as an alternative way to invest resources.
Objectives. We focus on identifying opportunities and limitations for the development of crowdlending platforms.
Methods. The paper draws on the systems analysis tools. It also applies a structure-behavior-result (SBR) model, which enables to characterize the external environment of crowdlending platforms to identify their opportunities and constrains.
Results. We identify opportunities and limitations of stakeholders involved in the development of crowdlending, including investors, borrowers, operators of digital platforms, the State and banks. The paper shows that both the demand and supply for the development of crowdlending are created. However, the main limitations in the development of this type of activity are associated mainly with institutional factors. Transparency in the activity of crowdlending platforms will mitigate risks, increase the level of trust of owners and users of resources. The improvement of legislation in this field will help preclude misconduct of economic agents in using this tool.
Conclusions. The findings can be used by federal and regional authorities in strategy implementation for the development of small and medium-sized businesses in the Russian Federation, as well as by bodies of legislative power in the development of regulatory framework for collective investment tools dissemination in Russia.

КОНОТАЦІЇ АНІМАЛІСТИЧНОЇ СИМВОЛІКИ В УКРАЇНСЬКІЙ НОВЕЛІ ЗЛАМУ ХІХ – ХХ СТОЛІТЬ
Authors: НАУМЕНКО Наталія
Published: November 2021

Динамізм, мінливість, суперечливість як головні константи рубежу століть наклали відбиток і на характер усвідомлення літературного процесу. У статті показано, як саме на зміну одновимірному трактуванню літератури як відображення довкілля приходять нові рівні її розуміння – самовираження, моделювання. Унаслідок цього архетипи національ- ної культури синтезуються з оригінальними естетичними ідеями, окресленими в європейській філософській думці доби модернізму. Установлено, що в поетизації двоєдності «людина – при- рода», яку вважають сталою прикметою українського національного письменства, особли- вого значення наприкінці ХІХ – на початку ХХ ст. набуває символізація наскрізної деталі та фольклорного образу, увиразнюючи тим самим проблему «людина – цивілізація». Дослідження інтерпретацій тваринної символіки у творах малої прози дало змогу не лише виявити нові її значення, які в кожного окремого письменника унікальні, але й утвердити на цьому ґрунті синкретичну спорідненість людини з тим чи тим об’єктом природи. Особливості наративної структури розглянутих у статті новел Ольги Кобилянської, Василя Стефаника, Марка Черемшини допомогли простежити становлення характеру героя твору передусім у природному довкіллі, показати найтонші порухи його душі, спроєктувати минуле або майбутнє на теперішню «незвичайну» подію в його житті, зчаста супроводжу- вану спілкуванням із живою істотою. Образи й деталі новели, надто ж анімалістичні, нада- ють авторові та реципієнтові змогу «змоделювати» світ персонажа на основі кількох міст- ких символів і численних асоціацій, викликаних ними. Завдяки згаданим чинникам українська новелістика отримує естетичний потенціал космогонічного міфу, виявами якого є діалог опо- відача або розповідача з вищими силами, природними стихіями, реаліями буденного життя, їх поетизація та одухотворення.
СУБ’ЄКТНЕ ПОЗИЦІОНУВАННЯ ДОМІНУВАННЯ-ПІДКОРЕННЯ ПІД ЧАС РОМАНТИЧНОГО ЗНАЙОМСТВА (ҐЕНДЕРНИЙ АСПЕКТ)
Authors: Романюк Олександра
Published: November 2021

Суб’єктне позиціонування домінування-підкорення є одним із найбільш фун- даментальних вимірів міжособистісних стосунків романтичної діади. Порівняльний аналіз демонструє нові уявлення щодо вербальних і невербальних засобів комунікації, які сигналізу- ють міжособистісне домінування-підкорення під час романтичного знайомства в рамках американської лінгвокультури, а також яким частинам тіла надають перевагу різностатеві гетеросексуальні незнайомці. Вибірка дослідження становить 40 репрезентативних кодів комунікативної поведінки, до яких увійшли 133 зразки вербальних і 1996 зразків невербальних засобів комунікації, ініційованих американськими жінками, а також 116 зразків вербальних і 1087 зразків невербальних засобів комунікації, ініційованих американськими чоловіками. За результатами дослідження встановлено, що розподіл ролей під час первинної романтичної інтеракції слідує традиційним ґендерним стереотипам, згідно з якими чоловіки обирають «маскулінну» позицію домінування, а жінки – «фемінну» позицію підкорення. Вербальну дис- тинктивність суб’єктного позиціонування домінування-підкорення спостережено в рольовому дейксисі адресанта й адресата. У фемінному романтичному медіадискурсі превалює комуні- кативна установка на адресанта й адресата; у маскулінному романтичному медіадискурсі надано пріоритет комунікативній установці на адресанта. Невербальну дистинктивність суб’єктного позиціонування домінування-підкорення спостережено в превалюванні невер- бального вираження домінування в маскулінному романтичному медіадискурсі; натомість надання преференцій невербальному вираженню підкорення простежено у фемінному роман- тичному дискурсі. Ґендерна паритетність виявляє себе у використанні однакових частин тіла для сигналювання позиції домінування, а дистинктивність частин тіла – для вираження позиції підкорення.
ВІДТВОРЕННЯ ПІД ЧАС ПЕРЕКЛАДУ ІНКОНГРУЕНТНОСТІ ЯК ЗАСОБУ СТВОРЕННЯ «ЧОРНОГО ГУМОРУ» В ЖАНРІ СТЕНДАП-КОМЕДІЇ (НА ПРИКЛАДІ МОНОЛОГІВ ДЖОРДЖА КАРЛІНА)

Статтю присвячено вивченню особливостей відтворення при перекладі інконгруентності як засобу створення «чорного гумору» в жанрі стендап-комедії на прикладі монологів Дж. Карліна. Актуальність теми дослідження полягає як у недостатньому вивченні комічного й інконгруентності як механізму його створення, так і в недостатній увазі науков- ців до творчості відомого американського сатирика Дж. Карліна, вплив якого на американське та навіть світове суспільство важко переоцінити. Метою статті є, таким чином, вивчення інконгруентності як механізму створення «чорного гумору» в жанрі англомовної стендап-ко- медії та засобів передачі інконгруентності під час перекладу. У ході дослідження визначено основні характеристики «чорного гумору» як виду комічного й описано інконгруентність як механізм створення комічного в «чорному гуморі»; на прикладі окремих фрагментів виступів Дж. Карліна простежено особливості створення інконгруентності та її передачу в україн- ських перекладах. У результаті виявлено, що «чорний гумор» хоч і вважається «жорстким» видом гумору, проте є соціальним і часто має на меті виправлення суспільства через сміх. Автори, що використовують у творчості «чорний гумор», удаються до таких форм психо- логічного захисту адресата, як катарсис і сублімація. Когнітивним механізмом створення комічного в «чорному гуморі» є інконгруентність – будь-який вид невідповідності нормі, яка провокує комічний ефект як результат реакції інтерпретатора на неочікувану невідповід- ність усталеним нормам комунікативної ситуації, включно з референтною, відображеною висловленням. Дж. Карлін у виступах вдається до різних типів інконгруентності – онто- логічної, логіко-поняттєвої, валоративної, що дає йому змогу йому через змалювання часто абсурдних ситуацій не лише смішити публіку, а й змушувати її замислюватися. При відтво- ренні монологів Дж. Карліна використовують широкий спектр перекладацьких трансформа- цій, однак найбільш суттєвими для передачі інконгруентності «чорного гумору» є лексико- семантичні трансформації та компенсація.
