Authors: Yüceol Nazlı
Published: January 2022

The progress of societies, their development, and their ability to compete economically depend on education. Education is both affected by changes in all these areas and affects them. The desired results from the new wave of industrial revolution called industry 4.0 can only be achieved through education as well. Industry 4.0 is the new industrial revolution that first appeared in Germany and includes applications such as autonomous vehicles, wearable technologies, artificial intelligence applications, block chain, and cloud computing systems. With the innovations brought by the revolution, it has been changing the ways of doing business and the competencies required from employees. Industry 4.0 requires university students to have new knowledge, competencies and skills before graduation, the workforce to acquire new skills, and the restructuring and transformation of higher education to achieve all of these. Thus, industry 4.0 is reshaping the future of education. This review study focuses on the connection of higher education and industry 4.0 by examining the national and international literature. It aims to present a general assessment of the steps to be taken in higher education in parallel with the requirements of industry 4.0 and the new competencies that should be acquired by graduates. It is concluded with some suggestions about what should be done regarding the international standards in order for the higher education curricula to adapt to the existing processes and changes, to train human resources in accordance with the conditions and demands of the age, what new competencies the workforce should have, and the steps to be followed regarding industry 4.0.

By devaluing the serological test we throw the baby out with the dirty water
Authors: Passariello Fausto
Published: January 2022

According to a quite diffuse opinion, also amplified by the media, the serologic test has a limited diagnostic value and is of no use as an indication to the booster dose of a COVID-19 vaccine.
In addition, this point of view was strengthened by a hasting criticism, which appeared in television, social networks and newspapers and was based on a personal interpretation of a paper published in NEJM Oct 2021.
The current article shows how the NEJM paper asserts just the opposite thesis, supporting the serologic test instead.
Details are here provided, especially about the effective antibody/infectivity correlation and the possible threshold value between diseased and healthy people.
The conclusion is that the NEJM paper strongly supports the serologic test, while the quick criticism derived from a biased lecture, in search of the confirmation of a preconception.

Authors: Qu Minghan , He Tong , Liu Tianyi , Li Chensha
Published: January 2022

The in-situ reaction process was used to prepare composite materials loaded with cadmium sulfide, which were respectively loaded by carbon nanotubes, activated carbon, and carbon nanotube/activated carbon composites for the study of photocatalytic degradation of methyl orange. The results show that when carbon nanotubes and activated carbon are used as carriers, the photocatalytic degradation reaction rate constants are 3.6 times and 8.8 times higher than those without a carrier. The photocatalytic performance of the carbon nanotube/activated carbon composite carrier with a mass ratio of 20: 80 to support cadmium sulfide is significantly higher than that of cadmium sulfide supported by carbon nanotubes and activated carbon respectively, and its photocatalytic degradation reaction rate constant is 30% – 40% higher than that under the condition of activated carbon alone as carrier. It shows that when the modified activated carbon is used as a photocatalyst carrier, carbon nanotubes have a significant effect in improving the efficiency of degrading organic matter.
On the structure and mechanical properties of in vitro salivary pellicles
Authors:   , Boyd Hannah
Published: January 2022

Salivary pellicles display exceptional hydration and lubrication performance. At present, there are still gaps in the understanding of how this is achieved. The aim of this thesis was therefore to increase our knowledge on the mechanisms underlying these properties and deepen the understanding of how they are related to the composition and structure of pellicles, with a focus on those formed under in vitro conditions. This has applications ranging from the development of artificial saliva and lubricating coatings for biomedical applications to methodological approaches for initial testing of oral healthcare products. For this, we also focused on developing suitable methodological approaches for these studies, centering on atomic force microscopy, quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring, ellipsometry and neutron reflectometry techniques, to investigate in vitro and model salivary pellicles. First, we confirmed a two-layer structure for in vitro salivary pellicles and showed that the outer layer is mainly composed by the oral mucin MUC5B, but that it also contains other salivary components that enhance swelling and hydration. In the presence of bulk saliva, the outer layer also contains a reversibly and loosely bound fraction. This fraction increases the adhesiveness of the pellicle but unexpectedly has no significant effect on its lubrication performance. We also investigated the effect of mechanical confinement on model salivary pellicles by means of Neutron Reflectometry, revealing that at a pressure of 1 bar they are already completely compressed and dehydrated. Finally, with the aim to advance towards better oral healthcare products, we investigated the effect of nonionic and amphoteric surfactants on salivary pellicles, showing that they have a gentler effect on pellicle structure than the commonly employed anionic surfactants.

Экономизация политики как следствие политического кризиса модерна
Authors: Смирнов И. О.
Published: January 2022

Смирнов И. О.  Экономизация политики как следствие политического кризиса модерна. Процесс перехода от концепции политики как продолжения этики к концепции политики как продолжения экономики явился результатом кризиса политического проекта модерна второй половины XX века. Экономизация политики возникла как способ устранения этического начала из сферы политического, что было связано с восприятием этического начала как источника субъективности в политике и основной причины появления тоталитарных режимов в XX веке. При этом прикладной, инструментальный характер экономики не оставляют возможности избежать обращения к определённому этическому идеалу как основе организации политики. Процесс экономизации политики, таким образом, не устраняет этическое начало из политики, а лишь переводит его в скрытое состояние.

Image Georeferencing using Artificial Neural Network Compared with Classical Methods
Authors: Ezz El Din Zahra
Published: January 2022

Georeferencing process is one of the most important prerequisites for various geomatics applications; for example, photogrammetry, laser scan analysis, remotely sensing, spatial and descriptive data collection, and others. Georeferencing mostly involves the transformation of coordinates obtained from images that are inhomogeneous due to accuracy differences. The georeferencing depends on image resolution and accuracy level of measurements of reference points ground coordinates.  Accordingly, this study discusses the subject of coordinate’s transformation from the image to the global coordinates system (WGS84) to find a suitable method that provides more accurate results. In this study, the Artificial Neural Network (ANN) method was applied, in addition to several numerical methods, namely the Affine divided difference, Newton’s divided difference, and polynomial transformation. The four methods were modelled and coded using Matlab programming language based on an image captured from Google Earth. The image was used to determine reference points within the study area (University of Baghdad campus).  The findings of this study showed that the ANN enhanced the results by about 50% in terms of accuracy and 90% in terms of homogeneity, compared with the other methods.

Authors: Ahumedo Monterrosa Maicol Jose , Anaya Gil Jorge , Maldonado Rojas Wilson
Published: January 2022

El surgimiento y propagación de bacterias patógenas multirresistentes se ha convertido en un problema de salud pública debido al aumento de casos en los cuales no se cuenta con un tratamiento adecuado; por lo que la búsqueda de compuestos con propiedades antibióticas contra bacterias resistentes a los antibióticos tradicionales se ha vuelto prioritaria. En este trabajo se realizó una búsqueda in silico de compuestos análogos de cefalosporinas y se estudió su interacción con las enzimas transpeptidasas y betalactamasas de Escherichia coli. Para lo cual se descargaron de la base de datos PubChem 163 moléculas; las afinidades de estas fueron evaluadas por acoplamiento molecular con las estructuras de transpeptidasa y betalactamasa usando el programa AutoDock v4.2. Se identificaron nueve compuestos con mayor energía de afinidad por la transpeptidasa y menor afinidad por la betalactamasa; a dos de los cuales les fueron realizadas modificaciones químicas in silico con el propósito de evaluar el efecto de los sustituyentes en los valores de afinidad, así como sus propiedades ADME. La cefaperozona monobactam modificada con un grupo metilo presentó una mejor afinidad por la transpeptidasa (de -6.8 a -7.8 kcal/mol) y disminuyó la afinidad por la betalactamasa (-5.9 a -5.8 kcal/mol) lo que demostró el potencial dual de esta molécula.

Published: January 2022

La presente investigación se realizó entre los años 2018 y 2019; surgió como inquietud del interés académico por conocer diferentes imaginarios o percepciones frente a la labor docente. Para ello fue aplicado el cuestionario diseñado por Josep M. Blanch, para un estudio internacional sobre Calidad de Vida Laboral en Organizaciones de Servicios Humanos, desde un enfoque mixto, que permitió el análisis de forma integral, a través de un estudio descriptivo, a 31 profesores de la Institución Educativa pública “María Antonia Ruiz”, ubicada en el Municipio de Tuluá (Valle). El objetivo principal fue describir las condiciones laborales y su incidencia en la satisfacción laboral en los docentes que trabajan en las diferentes sedes de bachillerato de la Institución Educativa, lo cual, debido a las nuevas reformas laborales, educativas y económicas implementadas por el Estado, influyen directamente en la interpretación de un pequeño contexto como el colegio. El resultado más relevante se halla en que, a pesar de que cada día se presentan situaciones que hacen realmente difícil la motivación en términos institucionales y el adecuado desarrollo de la labor docente, los cuales pueden ocasionar obstáculos tanto para los profesores como para los alumnos, los docentes desarrollan nuevas estrategias de afrontamiento y condiciones que van más allá de las situaciones materiales que permiten disminuir el estrés generado por las deficiencias que se encuentran desde su área de trabajo.

DOES PANDEMIC HAVE A SILVER LINING? A CONTRASTIVE CORPUS STUDY OF COLLOCATIONS WITH PANDEMIC IN MEDIA TEXTS
Authors: Tsapro Galyna , Sivaieva Olha
Published: January 2022

The research is devoted to the contrastive corpus analysis of the semantic prosody of collocations with PANDEMIC in the broadsheet ‘The Guardian’ and the tabloid ‘The Mirror’. The corpora have been processed with the help of Sketch Engine and the collocations with PANDEMIC have been analysed. The study mostly concentrates on the verbs with PANDEMIC as subject and object as most representative in media texts. The dictionary definition of PANDEMIC interprets it as a word with negative semantic prosody. The discourse analysis of the data obtained proves that collocations containing this collocate have negative semantic colouring as well. The following verbs start, hit, lead, cause, force, mean, devastate, which are common for both newspapers, represent PANDEMIC as a metaphorical image of a disaster, and the verbs specific for ‘The Mirror’ – bring, abate, inflict, scupper, kill, give, show, go on – support the given picture. However, the verbs unique for ‘The Guardian’ – strike, affect, shine, reveal, create, take, turn, remain – mostly outline the starting point or describe problems people have to face during pandemic times. Still some verbs in ‘The Guardian’, for example exacerbate and stop, also contribute to the frightening portrayal of a supernatural power terrorising humans. Both newspapers sketch personal stories, describe problems in business, trading, travelling, but ‘The Guardian’ puts more emphasis on international affairs and governments’ decisions and responsibility.
THE FORMATION OF TERMINOLOGICAL CHAINS AND PARADIGMS BY COMBINING FROMS
Authors: Kruhlij Olena , Kozak Alla
Published: January 2022

The article is dedicated to analysis of terminology chains, terminological paradigms, terminological families, terminological rows formed by combining forms. Typically the process of filling terminological families exceeds the speed of formation of new ones. Analysis of the material showed that the studied classical word forming elements are characterized by creating the chains of two, three and even four units. Such mini families (2-3 members paradigm) make up a small number in modern terminological systems but have a high potential and provide further “growth” of terms families. Structurally and semantically related terms form terminological series in which terminological elements enter into syntagmatic and paradigmatic relations. The final forms enter into the paradigmatic relations as a part of the terminological paradigm built with using a common prepositional component. Acting as a prepositional component they indicate individual features of an object or phenomenon and are a variable value. They become a constant value in the role of postpositive formant and are the indicators of a class of objects or phenomena performing a systematizing function. Classical terminological elements form open terminological rows, chains, families and can enter into paradigmatic relations, which is an important system-forming factor used in terminology to reflect the systemic nature of scientific concepts. The very process of the new terminological families, chains, paradigms creation can be considered both as a process and as a result of terminological derivation.
CONCEPTUAL COMPONENT OF THE CONCEPT OF APPLICATION
Authors: Storchak Oleg
Published: January 2022

This paper deals with the conceptual component of the concept APPLICATION in the contemporary English discourse. This concept is parametric, specific and regulatory. It has enriched its content with five cognitive markers. At the end of the 20th century another word app, a shortened version of the key name application, was introduced to objectify the meanings “a piece of software” and “a program”. The structure of the conceptual component consists of a core and two layers. The core contains the etymologically motivated cognitive marker “the bringing of something to bear on something else”. The first layer contains six cognitive markers “a piece of software, a program designed to do a particular job”, “the practical use of something, especially a theory, discovery, etc.”, “a formal request for something”, “an act of putting or spreading something onto something else”, “the act of making a rule, etc. operate or become effective” and “determination to work hard at something, great effort”. The second layer has the cognitive markers of the concepts whose names either have the word application in their definitions (social network) or are synonyms (applicability, etc.), antonyms, names of mobile applications and platforms.
PHRASAL VERBS IN THE SYSTEM OF LEXICAL UNITS OF MODERN ENGLISH AND THEIR CLASSIFICATON
Authors: Sheverun Nadiia , Dzhurylo Alina
Published: January 2022

The article is devoted to the investigation of phrasal verbs in the system of lexical units of modern English and their classification. Focusing on the consideration of phrasal verbs as combinations of two full words and thus limiting the study to a combination of verb and adverb, it turns out that the semantic center of such combination is shifted under the influence of the adverb towards its meaning. Different classifications of phrasal verbs depending on the features that distinguish them from simple verbs are outlined. It is found out, that the ability of the etymologically original unit of the postpositive to functionally reorient and become part of a phrasal verb is influenced by the frequency of use and the semantic volume of the adverb or preposition. It is distinguished, that phrasal verbs in English are very diverse both in their coherence or compatibility, and in the additional meanings they have in the text. A phrasal verb is the only semantic unit, that has its own specific features. As a result of the research it was revealed that phrasal verbs have been found to help express thoughts more clearly and accurately than ordinary verbs and to convey those aspects of meaning that a simple verb is unable to convey. Phrasal verbs are necessary for free and correct understanding of English texts.
AN APOGEE OF CORPORIAL IN ACADEMIC NOVEL FLESH BY DAVID GALEF
Authors: Anisimova Liudmyla
Published: January 2022

In the article the results of studying a problem of corporeal in a work of contemporary American writer David Galef, a professor of English at Montclair State University (New Jersey), are presented. Since Galef is little known in Ukraine, a short review of his life and works is given. On a basis of theoretical and literary critical works, devoted to a problem of corporeal in fiction, a representation of a body and corporeal is analyzed in a novel Flesh (1995). The key images and metaphors are defined. The important image is an overweight female body – Max’s object of desire. A story is narrated by his friend Don Shapiro, a professor of literature in “Ole Miss”. For a more precise interpretation, the functions of paratextual elements of original and translated texts are also studied. A novel is specified with its autobiographical character. According to a list of necessary features, this work is classified as an academic novel – a satirical comedy about university life with the elements of parody and erotic. In Galef’s novel there are many naturalistic and even pornographic descriptions. Satirically and ironically depicting an academic life, Galef creates a small copy of a contemporary world, in which people are very concentrated on matters of body and appearance, but not a soul and moral values.
LINGUISTIC PECULIARITIES OF INNOVATIONS IN AMERICAN ENGLISH
Authors: Khudoliy Anatoliy
Published: January 2022

The article deals with linguistic peculiarities of innovations selected in texts of American news weeklies such as Newsweek and U.S. News and World Report. The author has identified and described innovations coined in the beginning of the 21st century in American journalistic texts. The innovations include lexical and grammatic coinages. The above-mentioned nonce words are coined by analogy of the existing word forming patterns. Lexical innovations reflect phenomena of American political and social life. Jargon is also an active sphere of communicative activity and serves as a foundation for producing nonce words. Grammatic innovations prove the tendency to violation of language standards and bear the characteristics of colloquial American English. In most cases the innovations are semantic nonce words and their analysis helps to realize semantic connection between the original meaning and the new one. Apart from semantic characteristics, identified innovations perform a set of functions, i.e. they are functionally oriented. They reflect social and political changes, and help native speakers precisely express their thoughts and emotions. Nonce words, as effective instruments of journalists’ influence, perform the following functions: informative, expressive, pragmatic, appealing etc. Nonce words are expressive, concise, attractive by their form and semantics. They affect readers.
FEMALE CHARACTER AS AUTHOR'S ALTER EGO IN IRENA KARPA'S NOVEL "GOOD NEWS FROM THE ARAL SEA"
Authors: Krupka Myroslava
Published: January 2022

The study investigates the problem of representation of the female image in the autobiographical paradigm of Irena Karpa's novel “Good News from the Aral Sea” because the tendencies of subjectivism describe the writer's work as a manifestation of generational and gender identities. Thus, the modern cultural process is marked by the active presence of writers not only through their texts, but also through various public activities and social networks, which allows the reader to have an idea of the author's private history and accordingly correlate it with artistic narrative. Therewith, the form of the autobiographical narrative is considered as a way for the writer to articulate her experience as gender-marked and is a form of constructing the identity of the character – the author's alter ego. Irena Karpa's book simulates four types of modern heroines, united by common topos of birth and residence, but it is Rita's plot line that is considered as the embodiment of an autobiographical narrative. The figure of this heroine is shown at the junction of two cultures: Ukrainian and European. However, the drama of her life story is provoked by the self-identification of the mistress, who is always in a relationship with two men at the same time, which determines her identity. In the novel, it is love stories that unfold the dynamism of the heroine' s character: she mimics each subsequent man, changing role models from victim to muse. Other life roles: mother, wife, daughter are secondary, and are outside the priority zone. The correlation of the artistic world of the novel with the actual biography of the writer gives grounds to interpret the novel as an autofiction.
HISTORICAL MOVIE IN MEDIA LINGUISTICS: STYLISTICS, TRANSLATION
Authors: Pavlyk Volodymyr
Published: January 2022

A notion of a film text is currently an object of scientific research, which is caused by a rapid development of cinematic art within the last century and an increasing attention of scientists to a linguistic constituent of this phenomenon. The film text is one of the most important displays of a media text. In a film text, two semiotic systems are present, linguistic and non-linguistic ones, which operate signs of different kinds. The linguistic system of the film text is serviced by sign-symbols, created from an establishment of a connection between something, which is being explained, and something, which is explained based on a conditional agreement. It is represented by two components: written one (credits, captions which constitute a part of a movie universe) and oral one (an actor’s speech, a voice-over, a song, etc.), which are expressed with the help of symbolic signs – words of a natural everyday language. An investigation of a political fiction movie text belongs to modern explorations of text stylistics in the direction of description and standardization of the system of speech genres in the field of linguistics and literature studies. Also, this investigation describes stylistic and translation aspects of a linguistic part of a political fiction movie text. The article considers stylistic indications of a political fiction movie text and ways of their translation. A political fiction movie communicates to the audience a political stance and a worldview, or makes it aware of political problems. During the translation of a political fiction movie, the author of the translation takes into consideration the stylistic tonality of the text, which, contrary to the phonetic one, represents in itself the concentrate of expressive means of the original text. In the case of a political movie, this is about stylistic dramatic-epic tonality. The main task for the translator of a political movie is to skillfully carry out translation transformations, for the translation text to convey all the information contained in the original text with the maximum possible accuracy. The most effective transformations in the Ukrainian translation of the analyzed fiction movie are: contextual lexical-semantic substitution, concretization, word-for-word translation, synonymic translation, syntactic omission of a part of a sentence, syntactic replacement in a word combination structure, grammatical replacement.

The outbreak of Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has accelerated the process of digitalization in higher education setting and the field of learning English for academic purposes is no exception. An adequate selection of available online resources of high didactic and pedagogical value that could facilitate EAP learning is an urgent issue. The aim of the article is to investigate biology students’ evaluation of 6 internet resources (FutureLearn, Khan Academy, tutorial channels on Youtube (namely, CrashCourse and RicochetScience), Quizlet, Kahoot, Crossword Labs) that were used during the academic year 2020-2021 as supplementary tools for achieving learning objectives in the framework of disciplinary course ‘English for Biologists (freshmen).’ In order to achieve the purpose of the research quantitative and qualitative surveys were conducted among first-year biology students. Collected data revealed their preferences regarding 3 sections in the evaluation of internet resources: design (user-friendly browsing, absence of technical errors), information reliability and accuracy, promotion of learners’ interaction and engagement. Also, the data showed students’ self-assessment of linguistic skills they improved by utilizing these resources. The study of students’ perceptions of internet resources helps to define useful internet tools to make distant learning of Academic English for Biology more meaningful and effective.
INTRODUCTION OF BLENDED LEARNING IN FOREING LANGAGE TEACHING IN A MODERN UNIVERSITY
Authors: Palkevych Olena
Published: January 2022

The article explores the concept of blended learning in foreign language teaching as a new pedagogical formula that combines distance learning through digital media with classroom learning, which provides for a "co-presence" of students and teachers, and transforms learning. The use of this type of learning solves several important tasks: 1) transition to a student-centered approach built on greater self-organization of students, formation of their ability to active, productive learning; 2) defining the important role of the teacher as a co-organizer of the educational process who is able to encourage dialogue, communication in the classroom and in self-study; 3) redistribution of the workload of teachers according to the new requirements: more time to prepare for the education process and research, contributing to their commitment to professional self-development. To elaborate a blended model of foreign language teaching for Ukrainian students, the experience of face-to-face teaching and online foreign language teaching at Oles Honchar University and the models of blended learning proposed by the Clayton Christensen Institute were analyzed, and one blended learning model known as the «lab rotation model» was proposed as the most suitable. It provides for classroom work offline as synchronous learning, and individual work online (on the learning platform) as asynchronous leaning, as well as the integration of individual learning and face-to-face learning in group formats, which will provide adaptive, more individualized training of students. It is proposed to supplement this model with elements of the «flipped classroom» model when students receive basic learning material and instructions online, and work in a more interactive form in the classroom.

The article presents a research of the peculiarities of the psychological adaptation of foreign students to the language and national environment in the process of comprehensive study of peculiar topics of linguistics and the history of its formation. The research was conducted on the basis of the use of a comprehensive experimental training program for learning Ukrainian as a foreign language and the history of Ukraine in one academic group of foreign students (12 people). Another group of students studied according to the standard program. The research objective is to demonstrate the positive dynamics of psychological adaptation of students from different countries to the language and national environment in the process of learning Ukrainian as a foreign language and particular aspects of its formation, namely the influence of Poland on the Ukrainian literary language in Western Ukraine in the 20s and 40s of the 20th Century. The urgency of studying this historical period is that the new edition of the “Ukrainian orthography” of 2019 partially intensifies the use of lexical tokens borrowed from the Polish language and orthographic norms of the “Orthography” of 1928. The research results showed that the average score of the final testing of students who studied through the experimental program is 3 points higher than that of students who studied through the standard program. In addition, students of the first group have much higher results from diagnosing the psychological characteristics of adaptation to the national environment. By studying the language and history of Ukraine, foreign students not only much better mastered language phenomena and understood their origins, but also learned about the complex past of our country. The conclusions of the experiment show that the proposed methodology proved itself to be a tool of improving the psychological adaptation of foreign students to the language and national environment of the country in which they receive professional education.

Authors: Volovyk Larysa , Deduchno Alla
Published: January 2022

The article is devoted to the studies of characteristics of word-formation structure and semantics of German economic verb-terms with prefixes be-, ge-, er-, ver-, zer-, ent-, emp-, miss-. The paper studies the stems of German prefixal verbs used as economic terms, examined by means of the determining their structural, semantic and functional organization. The examination of prefixal verbs’ stems proceeds from basic root words of derivational chains towards their cognate derivatives. Prefixal verbs are formed according to general language norms on the basis of prefixal derivational patterns of modern German. The results obtained show the decrease of borrowed verb-forming prefixes in German economic terminology. Prefixal verb stems form noun stems by means of suffixation and conversion which are very productive in German. Much attention is given to non-affixal derivative nouns formed by means of the processes of substantivization and conversion stems of infinitives, conversion stems of preterital prefixal verbs. The paper reveals the text-formative potential of prefixed verbs on the basis of German economic terms in economic texts. The derivational patterns of prefixed verbs on the basis of German economic terms in the economic texts are analysed. The article deals with the problems of the influence of context on word-formation structure of German economic verb-terms with prefixes be-, ge-, er-, ver-, zer-, ent-, emp-, miss-. The research has been done on the basis of the translation of German economic texts.

Authors: Herman Viktoria , Zamoshnikova Veronika
Published: January 2022

In this article, we have substantiated the function of appeals in the letters of Lesya Ukrainka. We have studied the outgoing correspondence to Olga Kobylyanskaya. We analyzed the psycholinguistic orientation of appeals, conditions and factors of influence on the formation of linguistic products. We decoded the psychological meanings of the addresses and we interpreted the emotional saturation of specific units. It is a fact: writing is a fundamental unit of the epistolary text, within the framework of which the real traditions and relationships of correspondents are deciphered and interpreted. The formation of appeals, their appearance, emotional saturation is influenced by the personal and internal vicissitudes of the participants in communication and the social language environment. The issue of the peculiarities of the functioning of appeals in the letters of Lesya Ukrainka through multi-vector prisms is highlighted in the works of many linguists, in particular in the editions of S. Bogdan (semantic-syntactic, linguocultural, psycholinguistic and other aspects).), G. Arkulishin (lexical and semantic aspect), N. Zhuravleva (individual author's and one-time awards), etc. The purpose and objectives of the study is to identify and analyze the texts of personal outgoing correspondence of Lesya Ukrainka, in particular, correspondence with Olga Kobylyanskaya, to determine the psycholinguistic characteristics of the appeals in these letters and to study the emotional and expressive nature of linguistic neoplasms. Special attention is paid to appeals, expressed in a variety of ways, in which the conotativity and expressiveness of semantic linguistic units are encoded. In the letters of Lesya Ukrainka, a more intimate mood of communication is activated, expressed, in particular, in the existence of diminutive-affectionate and psychologically deep ones in the epistolary. The psychology of the ethnos is realized in the epistolary text through the use of well-grounded adjectives that give the language of writing a kind of folk song, folklore coloring. The etymological analysis of Olga Kobylyanskaya's references helps to create a complex psychological portrait of the addressee. So, great importance in the formation of opinions and the formation of thinking of Lesya Ukrainka is played by his education, social circle, interests, desires, activities and psychological organization.
