    NUMERONYM AS A MODERN TYPE OF ABBREVIATION IN MODERN ENGLISH
    (2015) Borisova, T.; Борисова, Т. С.
    The article is dedicated to the Information Technologies shortenings used in electronic messages and mail in Modern English. The main accent is made on morphological description of the specific type of abbreviations – numeronyms – and their translation peculiarities. The main function of a numeronym in any written text is to heighten the informativeness and capacity of a message, and, simultaneously, shorten it and “hide” its meaning from readers who don’t belong to the specific community. In the process of translation of numeronyms into other languages the decipher method proved to be the most efficient. The necessity of explanatory glossary for decoding computer texts is also underlined. Статья посвящена сокращениям, используемым в электронных сообщениях в современном английском языке. Основной акцент сделан на морфологическом описании нумеронимов и особенностях их перевода на украинский язык. Основная функция нумеронима в письменном тексте заключается в усилении информативности и емкости сообщения. Кроме того, данные лексические единицы позволяют сократить сообщение, а также закодировать, скрыть его содержание от читателей, которые не принадлежат к определенной группе “посвященных”. При переводе нумеронимов наиболее эффективным является метод “расшифровки”.

    STYLISTIC FUNCTIONS OF NOMINATIVE PARTS OF SPEECH IN STEREOTYPE PERSONAGE CREATION
    (2014) Borisova, T.; Борисова, Т. С.
    The article is devoted to analysis of lexico-morphological devices used in the process of creation of stereotyped personage image in adventure novels. Such personages are clearly marked by the author’s axiological attitude. Both the characteristics and the means of their expression can be constantly used by different authors; thus we deal with the phenomenon of personage stereotype. The choice of our investigation material is determined by the fact that in an adventure novel the ethic opposition is based on the fundamental contrastive conceptions of human morality – evil and goodness, honesty and falsity. The primary contrast which isn’t tinted but, inversely, is explicitly emphasized by authors, is the constant feature of adventure poetics. In this paper we concentrate our attention on basic functions of nominative parts of speech (nouns and adjectives) in stereotype personage characterization and their formalized, standardized nature.
