KOREAN NAMES IN SCREEN TRANSLATION:TRANSLITERATION ISSUES IN UKRAINIAN ADAPTATIONS
type: item
description: Background. This article addresses the problem of rendering Korean personal names in Ukrainian audiovisual translation, with a particular focus on the adaptation of TV series available on the streaming platform Netflix. The study reviews the main systems of Korean romanization and transliteration, identifies common errors in the rendering of names, examines the influence of cultural and linguistic factors on translation decisions, and suggests ways to improve the practice of name translation. The research combines linguistic and cultural approaches, emphasizing the importance of preserving the authenticity of names during adaptation for Ukrainian-speaking audiences in accordance with the norms of the Ukrainian language. Methods. The research employed three principal methods: the descriptive method, which enabled the systematization of the phonetic and structural features of Korean personal names; the comparative method, which facilitated the identification of recurrent tendencies and errors in Ukrainian translations; and the linguacultural method, which made it possible to account for the cultural context and to analyze its impact on the perception of characters by Ukrainian audiences. Results. The research reveals a lack of a unified and standardized system for the transliteration of Korean names in Ukrainian audiovisual translation. This results in variability, phonetic distortions, and translation errors in the rendering of character names. The analysis of specific cases demonstrates both technical and cultural-semantic distortions. These findings highlight the urgent need for the development of a consistent, Ukraine-oriented transliteration system that ensures accurate and stable rendering of Korean names in localized media products. Сonclusions. The study confirms that the accurate rendering of Korean personal names is an essential component of high-quality audiovisual translation. Despite the availability of various transliteration systems (both Latin- and Cyr…

LEXICAL AND STYLISTIC MEANS OF FORMING THE POLITICAL IMAGE OF UKRAINE IN PERSIAN MEDIA DISCOURSE
type: item
description: B a c k g r o u n d. Given the large-scale challenges that our country has faced since the beginning of the full-scale invasion of Russian troops, the study of the verbal representation of the political image of Ukraine in the media of different countries is of particular relevance. Considering the role of Iran as a strategic partner of the aggressor state, we set the goal of identifying what lexical and stylistic means the media use to form the political image of Ukraine in the modern Persian-speaking media space. M e t h o d s. In addition to general scientific methods of analysis and synthesis, we used the observation method (to analyze changes and trends in the use of linguistic means to create the image of Ukraine in the collected corpus of texts), lexical and stylistic analysis (to determine linguistic means that form the image of Ukraine); contextual analysis (to study the contexts in which Ukraine is most often mentioned). R e s u l t s. The study identified three main thematic blocks that determine the political image of Ukraine in modern Persian media discourse. According to the analysis, the positive image of Ukraine is formed by media resources located in Western countries, while the negative image is created by the official Iranian media, which, relying on Russian news agencies, broadcast the corresponding narratives. The analysis of stylistic resources for creating the image of Ukraine showed that epithet is the most frequent of them; metaphor and hyperbole are also actively used, as opposed to simile. C o n c l u s i o n s. The data obtained indicate that the Persian media discourse represents a complex and ambiguous political image of Ukraine, reflecting various aspects of the country's internal political processes and the current geopolitical situation in the world. Positive narratives contribute to the formation of the image of Ukraine as a democratic and responsible international actor, while negative messages bring to the fore issues of Ukraine's…

TOWARD A SEMANTIC TAXONOMY OF AUTHENTIC CHINESE ART TERMINOLOGY AS A BASIS FOR A CHINESE-UKRAINIAN ART THESAURUS
type: item
description: Background. Ukrainian society has shown a sustained and multifaceted interest in classical and contemporary Chinese art. However, the democratization of discourse around Chinese art has led to inconsistencies in terminology. Objective. This paper aims to develop a semantic taxonomy for the authentic Chinese art terminology and use the same structure for compiling a Chinese-Ukrainian and Ukrainian-Chinese thesaurus of classical Chinese art that would resolve existing inconsistencies in Ukrainian discourse on Chinese art and may be useful for various target groups. Methods. A cognitive terminology approach is used to define the conceptual taxonomy of the authentic Chinese art terminology. Within this structure, onomasiological and semasiological approaches are used. A study of phonological, morphological and semantic adaptation is used to define the status of authentic Chinese art terms in contemporary Western discourse on Chinese art. Historiographic descriptions, notes on sociolinguistics and observations of extralinguistic factors influencing the field are provided throughout this practice-led research. Results. The paper proposes a conceptual taxonomy for the classical Chinese art terminology that will inform the macrostructure of the future bilingual thesaurus. Its core and secondary authentic terminology categories are to be supplement with two vocabularies of Western origin: borrowed Western terminology and a list of obsolete Western terms. A standard entry pattern for the future thesaurus is introduced. Ultimately, a number of secondary findings may guide linguists willing to contribute to preservation and research of Asian cultures and educational efforts on this subject in Ukraine. Сonclusions. The study highlights the need for a standardized approach to Chinese art terminology in Ukraine. By aligning terminographic practices with findings in onomasiology and semasiology of Chinese art terminology and by recognizing that many terms have become internationsli…

STRUCTURAL AND SEMANTIC FEATURES OF COLORED EPITHS IN MODERN CHINESE PROSE(BASED ON THE MATERIAL OF THE MO YAN'S NOVEL "RED SORGHUM: A NOVEL OF CHINA")
type: item
description: Background. The understanding of language and literature contributes to effective intercultural communication. As is known, the epithet, as an implicit stylistic device, has a metaphorical and metonymic nature and possesses emotional-expressive potential. At the same time, color epithets encapsulate the features of the linguistic worldview. Since Mo Yan's novel "Red sorghum: a novel of China" is characterized by naturalistic details with expressive sound, color, and taste elements, it can serve as material for outlining the structural, semantic, and stylistic features of color epithets in the Chinese language. Methods. This study involved the application of a number of methods: theoretical analysis to process the scientific literature on the topic of the work, a complete sampling method to identify units (color epithets) for analysis, a descriptive method to interpret the symbolism of color terms in the Chinese language and culture, and a comparative method to find common and distinct features in the meanings of color epithets. Results. In the process of analyzing coloristic epithets in the Chinese language, it was found that based on structural-morphological characteristics, they can be classified into simple and complex. A simple coloristic epithet consists of a single-color morpheme, while complex epithets have at least two parts and can be formed using morphemes that indicate color saturation and other characteristics. Additionally, coloristic epithets in the Chinese language are accompanied by counting words and are characterized by the phenomenon of reduplication. The study pays special attention to epithets with the morphemes 红 (red), 白 (white), 黄 (yellow), 黑 (black), 青 (cyan), 绿 (green), and 蓝 (blue). It was established that the symbolism of colors in Mo Yan's novel "Red sorghum: a novel of China" sometimes deviates from traditional Chinese notions. For example, the red color is mostly associated with overwhelming life force, freedom, and death. Epithets wit…

KINSHIP VOCATIVES IN ARABIC AS A REGISTER FEATURE OF SPOKEN DISCOURSE (A CASE STUDY FROM THE SYRIAN SERIES AL-KANDŪŠ الكندوش )
type: item
description: Background. This article presents a socio-semantic analysis of vocatives containing a kinship component as a register feature of the language code in the context of the oral dialectal speech of characters in the Syrian television series al-Kandūš. The action of the series takes place in Damascus in the first half of the twentieth century, which makes it possible to consider the characters' speech as representative of the urban Damascene sociolect, a variety of the Syrian dialect. The object of the study comprises 86 vocatives extracted from 35 episodes of the first season of the series (2021). The article describes the register characteristics of the most representative communicative situations in which vocatives with kinship terms occur. The aim is to identify and describe the register characteristics of vocatives with a kinship component as part of the language code in the context of their use. Methods. The theoretical framework is based on the principles of Systemic Functional Linguistics (M. A. K. Halliday, R. Hasan, J. Martin, P. White), particularl y the theory of register (Halliday, 1985; Hasan, 1999; Martin, & White, 2005) as an analytical tool for describing the relationship between linguistic form and social context. A socio-semantic approach was applied to analyse linguistic units in their real communicative use, with each vocative examined in context (in use). Vocatives with a kinship component were identified as one of the register characteristics of mode (language code), determined by the social relationships between participants (tenor) and the thematic domain (field). The main research method was socio-semantic analysis (Kress, & van Leeuwen, 2006). The study also employed the descriptive method, pragmatic analysis of speech acts (following J. Searle), and functional-syntactic analysis (to establish the relationship between the vocative's position in the sentence and its function). Results. It was found that vocatives with a kinship component as the …

IDEOLOGICAL AND ARTISTIC INDIVIDUALITY OF ABBAS MAROUFI'S CREATIVITY IN THE NOVEL ʺSYMPHONY OF THE DEADʺ
type: item
description: Background. The study is devoted to the work of Abbas Maroufi, a representative of Iranian diaspora literature, which reflects social, cultural and psychological processes in Iranian society. The relevance is due to the need to understand this literature as a component of the world literary process and the lack of its analysis in the Ukrainian academic environment. The goal is to identify the ideological and artistic specificity of the novel "Symphony of the Dead" in the context of problems of identity, myth and cultural memory. Objectives. The following questions were raised within the framework of the study: What artistic means form the semantic depth of the novel? How is the problem of personal and collective identity represented in the work? What mythologemes and archetypes underlie the figurative system of the novel? What role does the structure of the symphony play in the compositional organization of the text? Methods. The material for the study was Abbas Maroufi's novel "Symphony of the Dead". The analysis was carried out through sequential reading and thematic grouping of text elements. The literary method helped to determine the genre and style features of the work. The historical and cultural approach made it possible to identify the influence of social and political contexts. Mythological analysis was used to interpret images associated with the Iranian tradition. The semiotic method allowed to establish symbolic codes and deep meanings of the work. Results. It was established that "Symphony of the Dead" is built on the principle of polyphony, where each section is the voice of a separate character. This allows the author to explore trauma, internal conflict, the theme of art and lack of freedom. The main images are formed around the mythologies of the victim, the double brother, the figure of the father as the bearer of traditional power. The work combines modernist artistic forms with deeply rooted Iranian symbolism, conveying the crisis of human ident…

RUSSIAN INFLUENCE STRATEGIES IN TURKISH MEDIA AND THE MEANS OF RESISTING THEM
type: item
description: Background. Russia strives to creating a negative image of Ukraine within Turkiye using Turkish media sphere amidst the Russo-Ukrainian war. The Russian influence on the Turkish media sphere was researched by Gölcü, Nurlanova, Samet, Baykal and Durmuş. However, the narrow set of data was not sufficient to produce strategies to resist Russian propaganda about Ukraine in Turkiye. Objectives. We aimed at identifying means of influence that Russian propaganda uses to persuade the Turkish population to percieve Ukraine negatively. Methods. In this work, we use corpus, discourse and content analysis to establish both quantitative and qualitative understanding of the problem. Results. We found that not only pro-Russian media outlets we studied (Sputnik, Aydınlık) were spreading Russian rhetoric, but also neutral websites (Sabah, CNNTürk) were creating a platform for messages which undermine trust in Ukraine and its government. Lexemes like «regime», «nazis» and «drug addicts», emotionally charged phrases and euphimisation apply suggestive influence to create a negative perception of Ukraine in consciousness of the population of Turkiye. Conclusions. Based on the results, we suggest means of multitopical positive storytelling as the main strategy of resisting Russian propaganda in Turkiye for Ukraine.

CODE-SWITCHING AND CODE-MIXING IN EGYPTIAN ONLINE NEWS (ON THE BASIS OF YOUTUBE CHANNELS 'JOE SHOW ALARABY' AND 'MOKHBIR EQTISADI')
type: item
description: Introduction. In the global multilingual media space, YouTube blogs are increasingly replacing traditional news platforms, which activates language code-switching and mixing. The provided study aims to outline the sociolinguistic and linguopragmatic features of the content of Egyptian channels Mokhbir Eqtisadi and Joe Show Alaraby. The purpose of this study is to identify the types of code-switching and the factors influencing it’s use. Methods. A comprehensive methodology was applied: lexical-semantic analysis (identification of dialectisms and anglicisms), comparative analysis (comparison of the language practices of the two channels), sociolinguistic and linguopragmatic approaches (determination of the role of subject matter, genre and target audience), as well as elements of discourse analysis and other. Results. The dominance of the Egyptian dialect with numerous English insertions (brand names, digital terminology) and French everyday words was established. The following features of code-switching and code-mixing were recorded: intersential and intrasential switching between MSA and a dialect; tag switching (in particular, when addressing the audience) between Arabic and English; code-mixing through occasional use of English borrowings or colloquial words. In addition, code-mixing was found at the lexical and phonographic levels: the use of English names in Arabic script, the spelling of brands in Latin script, intralexical mixing, and the combination of text and numbers in writing. The content of Mokhbir Eqtisadi contains code-switching and code-mixing primarily for the purpose of informing and engaging a wider audience; in Joe Show Alaraby, different language codes and foreign lexemes function to provide a comic effect. Conclusions. The analysis of news video content revealed active code-switching and code-mixing between MSA, a dialect and, to a lesser extent, English. Various types of code-switching and code-mixing, as well as individual foreign language in…

THE POETICS OF THE PEACH BLOSSOM SPRING MOTIF IN CHINESE LITERATURE
type: item
description: Background. The story of a fisherman's journey to the Peach Blossom Spring, where he discovers a strange and different world, has been present in Chinese literature for over 1,500 years and has not lost its appeal to literary creators. This lasting fascination calls for deeper scholarly attention, yet in Ukraine, such studies remain scarce. The aim of this article is to help fill this gap by exploring the poetics of the Peach Blossom Spring motif. The analysis is based on three literary works from different historical periods and genres: Tao Yuanming's prose tale "The Record of the Peach Blossom Spring", Wang Wei's poetic adaptation "Journey to the Peach Blossom Spring", and the stage play "Secret Love in Peach Blossom Land" by Stan Lai (Lai Shengchuan). Methods. Since the study of motif poetics involves examining both formal and semantic aspects, a wide range of methods was employed. To assess the applicability of European literary terms to Chinese texts, methods of definition validation and conceptual analysis were used. To identify the invariant core of the Peach Blossom Spring motif, functional and distributional analyses were applied. The functional approach helped to clarify the roles of various symbols (such as the peach, river, etc.) and highlight the key ones, while distributional analysis revealed the placement and recurrence of these elements across the selected texts. Additionally, a structural-poetological approach was used to identify genre and narrative characteristics, chronotopes, and compositional-speech forms specific to each version of the motif. An interpretative method was also employed to uncover the meanings embedded by each author. Furthermore, content analysis was used to identify key ideas and concepts in the texts, and a comparative method was applied to determine similarities and differences in their poetics. Results. Among the most studied aspects of Peach Blossom Spring poetics is the genre of Tao Yuanming's work. In Chinese literary t…

THE PROBLEMS OF SHORT PROSE BY SIMIN DANESHVAR:ON THE MATERIAL OF THE COLLECTION OF SHORT STORIES ʺTO WHOM SHALL I SAY HELLO?ʺ
type: item
description: Background. Iranian women's prose of the 20th century. is defined by the reflection of the complex struggle between traditional and religious values ​​and the desire for personal freedom. In the works of fiction of the second half of the 20th century. the central place is occupied by the themes of female identity, social inequality, the struggle for equality and the inner world of women in a patriarchal society. A vivid example of such transformations in Persian literature was the work of Simin Daneshvar (1921–2012) – a writer and translator, recognized in Iran and the world. The limited number of scientific works in Ukraine devoted to Iranian women's prose of the second half of the 20th – early 21st centuries, in particular the works of S. Daneshvar, determines the novelty and relevance of this investigation, the purpose of which is to establish the thematic structure and conflict dynamics in the prose works of S. Daneshvar based on the analysis of the collection of stories " To whom shall I say hello?" («به کی سلام کنم؟»). The main task of the article is to identify the leading problems and socio-psychological conflicts in the stories of the collection «To whom shall I say hello?» by S. Daneshvar. Methods. The following research methods were used: theoretical analysis (study of scientific literature on the topic of the study), elements of comparative-thematic analysis, psychological and feminist criticism, interpretive approach, hermeneutic approach and descriptive method. Results. During the analysis of four stories «To whom shall I say hello?» («به کی سلام کنم؟»), «Broken ball» («تیله شکسته»), «Accident» («تصادف»), «Snake and man» («مار و مرد») from the collection «To whom shall I say hello?» («به کی سلام کنم؟»), the main problems and socio-psychological conflicts that occur in the prose works of S. Daneshvar were identified. The analysis revealed what social, psychological, existential or cultural problems the author brings to the center of the artistic image. …

LEXICAL AND EDUCATIONAL LANGUAGE POLICY UNDER JAPANESE COLONIAL RULE IN KOREA (1910–1945): A HISTORICAL-SOCIOLINGUISTIC ANALYSIS
type: item
description: B a c k g r o u n d . From 1910 to 1945, Korea was under Japanese colonial rule, a period marked not only by political and economic control but also by cultural and linguistic suppression. The Japanese government implemented assimilation policies aimed at erasing Korean national identity, and language was a primary target. The use of the Korean language in schools, publications, and official settings was progressively restricted, and Japanese was enforced as the language of instruction and administration. This colonization period left a lasting impact on the structure, usage, and perception of the Korean language. Objectives. This study aims to examine the effects of Japanese colonial policies on the Korean language, focusing on three main areas: the suppression of Korean in public life, the influence of Japanese on Korean vocabulary and linguistic habits, and the post-liberation efforts to restore and purify the national language. The study also investigates how language functioned as both a tool of colonization and a medium of resistance. M e t h o d s . The research is based on a review of historical documents, educational policies, linguistic records, and previous scholarly works on Korean language history. Comparative analysis is used to trace the lexical and grammatical changes influenced by Japanese. The study also considers sociolinguistic responses during and after the occupation, including underground education efforts and post-1945 language reforms in South and North Korea. R e s u l t s . The findings indicate that Japanese colonial rule led to a significant reduction in the public and educational use of Korean, introduced a considerable number of Japanese loanwords, and created long-term effects on Korean linguistic identity. Despite the suppression, Koreans preserved their language through informal means and later engaged in national efforts to revive Hangul and remove colonial remnants. These outcomes highlight the resilience of linguistic identity an…

COMPILATION OF A DICTIONARY OF CHINESE MILITARY TERMINOLOGY
type: item
description: Background. In the context of China's growing influence on the world stage, the strengthening of the military-political factor in international relations and active hostilities on the territory of Ukraine, the issue of interlingual terminological interaction in the field of security and defense is gaining particular relevance and strategic importance. At the same time, modern Chinese military terminology is characterized by rapid development, a high level of technological complexity, and a specific hieroglyphic structure. Under these circumstances, there is an urgent need to systematize lexical units and to develop a high-quality military terminological dictionary based on corpus-driven and digital methods of analysis. Methods. During the study, a comprehensive approach to compiling a dictionary of Chinese military terminology was developed and tested, combining the methods of corpus linguistics, automated data collection and processing, frequency analysis and structural classification of terms. Particular attention was paid to creating a corpus of Chinese military texts for automated detection of terminological units. A set of methods was applied for automated processing, analysis and structuring of Chinese military terminology based on the corpus of texts of the Xinhua News Agency. Results. Python scripts were developed to implement the following research steps: 1. The "parsing_xinhua_news_to_corpus.py" script automatically downloads and processes news articles from the Xinhua News Agency website, forming a text corpus. 2. The "parsing_xinhua_military_news_to_xlsx.py" script specializes in processing military news, extracting relevant data and saving them in Excel format. 3. The "corpus_to_dict.py" script analyzes the collected corpus of texts, highlights terms, and forms a structured dictionary that includes the frequency of use. 4. The "word_count_by_length.py" script counts the number of terms depending on their length, which allows you to identify patterns in …

MODERNIST REINTERPRETATION OF MYTHOLOGICAL MOTIVES IN THE POETRY OF SHU TING AND LINA KOSTENKO
type: item
description: B a c k g r o u n d. An important aspect of studying intercultural phenomena is comparative research in the field of literary studies. Particular attention should be paid to periods in national literatures when questions of national and personal existence become especially acute. Such a period was the «literary thaw» − in Ukraine during the 1960s and in China during the 1980s. Lina Kostenko and Shu Ting are prominent representatives of the poetry of the «thaw» period, whose work reflects the thematic dominants and aesthetic principles of modernism. A significant and illustrative element of both poets’ work is the reinterpretation of mythological motifs in order to endow contemporary issues with archetypal and symbolic depth. Therefore, a comparative study of the poetry of Shu Ting and Lina Kostenko is highly relevant, as it enables an understanding of the commonalities and differences in how the Chinese and Ukrainian poets approach the eternal questions of human existence, national memory, and identity. M e t h o d s. A number of methods were employed in the course of this study. The methods of cultural-historical and philological analysis made it possible to identify the foundations and specific features of the artistic phenomenon of the «literary thaw». The method of commentary enabled the determination of the primary meanings of mythological images and motifs, while the interpretive method allowed for an analysis of their innovative reinterpretation in the poetry of Shu Ting and Lina Kostenko. The comparative method was applied to identify commonalities and differences in the contemporary reinterpretation of mythological motifs in the poets’ works. R e s u l t s. The analysis of the poetry of Lina Kostenko and Shu Ting revealed that both poets actively reinterpret mythological motifs and images to express their individual worldviews. Shu Ting predominantly turns to gynocentric mythology, featuring strong, wise, and talented goddesses. In constructing the image of…

THE UKRAINIAN TRANSLATIONS OF YUNUS EMRE’S POEMS ‘DIVAN’
type: item
description: The article presents the first Ukrainian translation of Yunus Emre's poetry based on the original texts written by the author in the twelfth century. The material for the translation is the poetry of the main collection of his poetry, Divan. The significance of the translation lies in the opportunity for the Ukrainian reader to get acquainted not only with the ideas of oriental culture common in the Old Anatolian Turkish language but also with the relevant religious and philosophical traditions of Sufism. The poems we have chosen fully reveal one of the main ideas of Sufism, which includes not only love for God but also a comprehensive merger with the divine essence, where there is no place for worldly egoism and personal self. The author's main artistic device is numerous metaphors that echo the historical context of the twelfth century. All the works begin with a philosophical idea that is developed in the following stanzas. It is noteworthy that the last stanza is always the author's philosophy, which at the same time is a kind of instruction to the reader, reflecting the values of Sufism. This is evidence of the author's idiom, which is closely intertwined with religious beliefs. Below are the original texts and their translation-interpretation into Ukrainian. Considerable attention has been paid to observing the rhyme and the main idea of the works, adapting the poems for better understanding by the Ukrainian reader.

COMMUNICATIVE AND PRAGMATIC PARAMETERS OF THE FUNCTIONING OF THE PERSIAN-LANGUAGE MILITARY-POLITICAL DISCOURSE (based on publications concerning Israel-Palestine conflict, 2023-2024)
type: item
description: Background. In view of the growing political instability, those threats and challenges which the world faces, the study of the functional specifics of the military-political discourse done on the material of various languages, in particular Persian, becomes especially relevant. The analysis of the communicative and pragmatic parameters of the functioning of the Persian-language military-political discourse carried out in this investigation, revealed the impact of the language on the political processes in the country and the region and allowed understanding how the discourse is being formed under the influence of cultural and social factors. Methods. The study of the corpus of media texts selected by the method of continuous sampling from the Iranian pro-government online resource "Jāme jam" was carried out making use of the critical discourse analysis, which gives the possibility to reveal the relationship between the use of language and the social institutions of the government. The main attention in the article has been paid to the analysis of the corpus of texts at the content-semantic and motivational-pragmatic levels. Results. The analysis of content-semantic dominants of the formed corpus of media texts showed that Iranian pro-government media promote senses that justify the actions of Hamas and demonize Israel and its Western allies. The Iranian media defends the idea of ​​the justice of the struggle of Hamas and its inevitable victory over Israel. The motivational-pragmatic analysis of the texts highlighted the main characteristics attributed to the participants in the conflict: Israel is mostly referred to as a “fake state”, “Zionist regime”, “occupational regime” and “kids-murdering regime”, while Hamas combatants are depicted as self-sacrificing fighters for liberation of the territories “occupied by Israel”, demonstrating “unparalleled successes” on the battlefield which will finally crush their enemy soon. Conclusions. The research made it possible to …

JAPANESE SURNAMES AS A SUBJECT OF LINGUISTIC STUDIES
type: item
description: Background. Clarifying the ways of forming, structure and usage of anthroponyms is an important key to understanding the functioning of certain ethnocultural communities. Generally in the countries of the Far East a surname plays an important role in personal (self) identity, but on the contrary of China and Korea, the set of Japanese surnames, their nearest geographical neighbors, is extremely rich and diverse. Thus, the comprehensive study of Japanese proper names is actual task of Japanese studies. Objectives. Basing on the works of Japanese researchers and on the databases of Japanese surnames, this article aims to present characteristics of linguistic features of Japanese surnames and draws perspectives on their further investigation. Methods. The main method applied in this study is a descriptive method. Furthermore we used procedures of critical analysis and the contrastive method. Results. It was found that the answer on the discussible issue concerning the amount of Japanese surnames depends on the counting criteria. The amount can vary from thereabout 100 thousand units when considering only the present times and using strict criteria concerning the Kanji records and their spellings, to almost 300 thousand units when adding surnames no longer used and counting different phonetic and graphical Kanji variants as separate surnames. This article also deals with the issue of regional characteristics of surnames. The 30 most popular Japanese surnames were classified from a regional point of view and this classification has much in common with the division of Japanese dialects. Phonetically, Japanese surnames are part of wago. Morphologically, most of them consist of two components and semanticize the features of the terrain and cultivated nature, reflecting the values of the Japanese language’s worldview. The analysis of component frequency revealed that last components denote the objects or aspects of their orientation in the space, and first components specify…

THE PECULIARITY OF CHINA REPRESENTATION IN SOFIIA YABLONSKA'S TRAVELOGUE «FROM THE LAND OF RICE AND OPIUM»
type: item
description: Background. In the 1930s, the Ukrainian literary and artistic community followed with great interest the vividly detailed and colorful descriptions of China that Sofiia Yablonska published in the Galician magazine «Nova Khata». Her travel notes, rich in deep observations and reflections on Chinese socio-political life, introduced readers to an unknown world of a distant culture. These descriptions not only expanded the horizons of Ukrainian readers but also played a fundamental role in Ukrainian-Chinese communication, laying the groundwork for mutual understanding and cultural exchange between two nations. By highlighting cultural differences and similarities in her works, Sofiia Yablonska created a kind of bridge that facilitated the convergence and mutual enrichment of Ukrainian and Chinese cultures. Methods. The study employed the following methodological approaches: the method of analysis and synthesis allowed for identifying key features and trends in the documentary prose of early 20th-century travel writers; the comparative method enabled the discovery of similarities and differences in the socio-cultural practices and political tendencies of China and Ukraine in the 1930s. Results. Sofiia Yablonska's personal travel experience and professional skills played a crucial role in her methods of depicting the image of China in her travelogue «From the Land of Rice and Opium». Thanks to her knowledge of photography and cinematography, artistic talent, resilience, and passion despite challenging travel conditions, Ukrainina travaler was able to fully capture the living conditions of early 20th-century China. In her quest to reveal the true China, she deliberately minimized contact with Europeans, prioritizing close communication with the Chinese people. Her descriptions reveal the social, historical, and national characteristics of China at that time, including issues of corruption, war, opium addiction, and European influence. Her travelogue provides insights into …

THE SPECIFICS OF MANIFESTATIONS OF ARCHETYPES FROM THE COLLECTIVE UNCONSCIOUS IN THE WORKS OF LI BAI
type: item
description: Background. Psychoanalysis has long been established as a method of literary studies, with the concept of the archetype being particularly exploited. However, it is not as widely applied to Chinese literature, especially in Ukrainian literary studies, where such explorations are still limited. Moreover, in numerous studies concerning other literatures, we notice that the term 'archetype' has been significantly devalued, diverging from the original meaning intended by its 'father,' C. Jung. Therefore, it seems necessary to more clearly define the concept of the archetype by returning to its origins – the works of C. Jung – and to test the claim of its universal meanings (derived from the formulation of the collective unconscious, i.e., common to all humanity) using the material of Chinese literature. Accordingly, the formation of ideas about the archetypes of the collective unconscious in Chinese literature was adopted as the goal of this research, and from this goal, tasks were formulated, such as identifying the archetypal basis of specific poems by the Chinese poet Li Bai and clarifying the universal and culturally specific forms of their manifestation. Methods. To identify the archetypal basis of Li Bai's poems, the psychoanalytic method and the method of interpretation were used, while the cultural specificity of the manifestations was determined using the methods of etymological analysis of the characters (that signify key lexemes for creating the corresponding images) and the method of conceptual analysis, which allowed for the identification of culturally specific information in the concepts that generated the archetype-manifesting images. The material of the study included two poems by Li Bai—'Spring Thoughts' and 'Drinking Alone under the Moon.' Results. As a result, it was found that in the poem 'Spring Thoughts,' the archetype of the Anima is manifested in the image of a woman; however, the marker of this female image is the pronoun 妾, which contains a co…

REPRESENTATION OF RUSSIAN FEDERATION'S WAR AGAINST UKRAINE IN ARABIC MEDIA (ON MATERIALS OF ONLINE NEWS AND INSTAGRAM COMMENTS)
type: item
description: Background. In the conditions of information war, the position of Arab countries regarding the Russian aggression against Ukraine is expressed in the mass media through lexico-semantic and stylistic markers that can be influenced by the Russian propaganda. The relevance of this investigation is caused by the need to identify the lexis with which the Arab media describe the situation in Ukraine, and to determine the news topics and reactions to them in the social networks. The purpose of this study is to determine the peculiarities of the lexico-semantic and stylistic means of forming the Arab media discourse in which the war between Russia and Ukraine is reflected. Methods. A complex methodology was applied, covering elements of lexico-semantic and stylistic analysis (the study of relevant lexis in the news texts); comparative analysis (depicting the language characteristics of the different resources' content); linguopragmatic analysis (defining the communicative goal and features of vocabulary functioning in mass media messages and comments on them); discourse analysis (determining the peculiarities of the chosen topics' reflection in the media and the impact on the online-communication in the context of information war). Results. The thematic features of the Russia-Ukraine war news representation are outlined based on the online resources of various Arab countries (Egypt, Qatar, UAE, Saudi Arabia). The conducted lexical-semantic analysis highlighted the specifics of the use of socio-political and military lexis. Russian propaganda markers for denoting the war in Ukraine and the Ukrainian authorities were determined. The stylistic means of creating emotional expressiveness in the news and Instagram comments were identified. Conclusions. The Arab mass media reports covered the topics of events at the front, discussions on negotiations between the Russian Federation and Ukraine, Western aid, participation of the Arab countries, and so forth. The information is frequ…

GASTRONOMIC DISCOURSE OF THE KOREAN SHORT PROSE OF 21st CENTURY.
type: item
description: Background. The article is devoted to the study of the gastronomic discourse of modern Korean prose. The purpose of the work is to reveal the role and functions of the use of gastronomic images in literary texts, their semantic load and plot-building potential and emotional impact on the reader. Methods The article uses semiotic analysis, because certain products or dishes serve as signs or symbols that reflect various socio-cultural, emotional or moral aspects in the work. Also, the linguistic method allows analyzing the lexical and syntactic features of texts to understand how authors create images of food and associations with its consumption. Results. As a result of the research, the aesthetic potential of gastronomic discourse in modern Korean literature was revealed; its significant potential in the construction of the text, the disclosure of the ideological plan was revealed; analyzed gastro-images in view of their role in revealing the cultural identification of the heroes using the example of the stories of Kim Eran and Kim Yongha. Conclusions. Gastronomic symbols and images in the analyzed works identify the characters and mentality of the heroes through food preferences, the concept of cooking and consumption, convey their emotional states, contribute to the reconstruction of the characters' memories, and act as an indicator of self-identification. Through the prism of food, the relationships of the main characters within the family and society are highlighted, because the writers in the stories record the changes taking place in Korean society. We have found that in modern works of Korean short prose, gastronomic discourse serves as a bridge for social interactions and strengthens ties between characters, emphasizing the social norms and values of society. In addition, food in the short stories is used as a symbol that reflects the cultural identity of the characters and their connection with traditions, or, on the contrary, emphasizes the loss of this c…

ARABIC DIPLOMATIC DISCOURSE: LINGUOPRAGMATIC FEATURES OF INTERSTATE AGREEMENT
type: item
description: Background. The relevance of the study is determined by the geopolitical context of today and the rapidly changing landscape of international relations between world states. Determining the features characteristic of the Arabic-language diplomatic discourse in its written form will contribute to a better understanding of communicative strategies in the context of intercultural communication based on the socio-cultural background, the history of the formation of the state and the development of the language. Methods. The research used: continuous sampling method (selecting texts to be analyzed), descriptive method (organization, interpretation and classification of linguistic phenomena), comparative method (systematic comparison of similar semantic units and finding common and different elements), inductive (analysis from specific to general) and deductive (analysis from general to specific) methods. Results. It was determined that the Arabic diplomatic discourse in its written form, despite the prevailing tendency in the texts to laconic (at least from an emotional point of view) presentation of information, is a complex and multi-vector part of the Arabic linguistic tradition, which is primarily explained by the complex history of the coexistence of the countries of the Arab world, in particular Egypt, and the State of Israel, the bilateral agreement between which was analyzed. Conclusions. It has been established that the written type of Arabic-language diplomatic discourse is based on features inherent in a number of other types of discourse, in particular the legal one, which partially facilitates the perception of the framework structure of official business texts. Despite the presence of features in common with oral Arabic diplomatic discourse, in written texts of this type, much greater emphasis is placed on restrained and step-by-step presentation of information, mostly without a manipulative component.

After the Islamic Revolution 1979, many Iranian women writers were forced to leave their homeland, which resulted in the formation of a powerful literary movement in the diaspora. Studying their works helps to understand the processes of adaptation, integration, and the preservation of cultural identity, as well as the social and political factors that influenced the writers' emigration. Methods. The article employs historical-biographical method, feminist criticism, gender approach, literary analysis, comparative analysis, and the method of analogy. The use of these methods has allowed for a comprehensive study of the creativity and works of Iranian diaspora women writers. Results. The research revealed that the history of modern Iranian women's prose is divided into four periods, each with its own characteristics and developmental preconditions. The main social and political factors influencing the writers' creativity include religious restrictions and women's rights limitations, censorship, discrimination, political repression, the Iran-Iraq war (1980–1988) and the Islamic Revolution (1979). The works of diaspora authors such as Dalia Sofer, Jairan Gahan, Zoya Pirzad, Marjane Satrapi, and others predominantly feature themes of censorship, discrimination, gender inequality, and the struggle for individual freedom. Conclusіons. The study demonstrated that modern Iranian women's prose in the diaspora is an important literary trend that reflects the social and political issues of Iran through the individual experiences of each woman writer. The practical significance of the article lies in contributing to a better understanding of the internal transformations of Iranian society and the role of women in these processes, as well as in supporting intercultural dialogue and feminist initiatives…

STRUCTURAL-SEMANTIC FEATURES OF MODERN PERSIAN MILITARY TERMINOLOGY
type: item
description: Background. Military terminology in the modern era is characterized by constant changes and updating of military concepts in the context of modern military conflicts, technological progress and requirements for accuracy and standardization of the use of terminology. In Iran, military vocabulary permeates the airwaves of radio and television, appears on the pages of print media, and is becoming more and more commonplace on the Internet. The limited number of scientific works in Ukraine devoted to the word formation of the Persian military terminology and the peculiarities of its translation and functioning determines the relevance and novelty of this investigation, the purpose of which is to establish the specificity of the word formation of the Persian military terminology through the structural-semantic analyses of the terms recorded in Persian-language media discourse. The main objective of the stydy is to establish the most common ways of word formation of Persian military terms functioning in the texts of electronic Persian-language media, and to determine the percentage of their frequency. Methods. The following research methods were used: theoretical analysis (examination of scientific literature on the topic of research), component analysis, structural-semantic analysis (selection of illustrative material and its grouping by structure), elements of conceptual analysis, descriptive method. Results. During the analysis of 250 military terms, the main ways of wording Persian military terminology, which were most often found in Persian-language mass media texts, were highlighted. Based on the results of the analysis, a diagram was developed according to the frequency of functioning of word formation methods. Conclusions. The main methods of word formation of the modern Persian military terminology are: affixation (prefixation and suffixation), semi-affixation, word formation and a combination of methods. Borrowings, in particular Arabisms and Anglicisms, take a s…

INTER-CONFESSIONAL DIALOGUE AND ADAPTATION: AN ANALYSIS OF THE TURKISH EXPERIENCE
type: item
description: This article presents a comprehensive study of adaptive translation and the specifics of adapting religiously marked lexicon in Turkish linguistics. The research is based on the analysis of scholarly works by Turkish authors who consider adaptation as a key method of translation and expanding the audience of a product, particularly in the context of interfaith dialogue. The article highlights various approaches to interpreting adaptation. On the one hand, adaptation is seen as a subsequent stage following translation in the comprehensive GILT system (Öztürk, Yazar), the goal of which is product globalization. According to this model, adaptation serves as an intermediary step between translation and internationalization, necessitating consideration of the cultural and linguistic characteristics of the target audience. On the other hand, adaptation is interpreted as a complex process encompassing translation, cultural adaptation, conversion, and editing of information (Canım, Konuk, Çelik). This approach entails a deeper intervention in the text, namely: replacing culturally specific elements, converting units of measurement, and omitting or adding information to enhance comprehension for the recipient. Particular attention is paid to analyzing the components of adaptive translation and their application to religiously marked lexicon. The article provides a detailed examination of examples of adapting religious terms and concepts in different types of discourse: formal and informal. It demonstrates that in formal communication there is a tendency towards neutralizing religious references, while in informal discourse equivalence, compensation, and semantic development prevail. For instance, in official documents it is advisable to avoid direct references to religious texts or figures, whereas in fiction various translation transformations can be employed to convey the emotional and cultural connotations of religious expressions. The study revealed an insufficient numbe…

UKRAINIAN TOPONYMY IN TURKISH LINGUISTIC-HISTORICAL DISCOURSE
type: item
description: Background. The article examines the issue of rendering Ukrainian toponyms using the Turkish language in historical and linguistic contexts. The study explores numerous mentions of Ukrainian geographical names attested in various Turkish written sources from the 16th-18th centuries, such as cartographic materials, chronicles, annals, and official state documents. The relevance of the work is due to the importance of Ukrainian toponyms in Turkish sources as unique material for reconstructing historical relationships between Ukrainian and Turkish peoples and recreating the historical geography of Ukraine. The aim of the study is to analyze the methods of conveying toponyms localized in the territory of modern Ukraine, including the names of geographical objects of the Crimean Peninsula, and to identify key linguistic challenges in their reproduction in Turkish. Methods. The study employs a comprehensive approach combining general scientific and special linguistic methods. Methods of analysis and synthesis are used to process theoretical material and form conclusions, while the induction method is used to generalize the obtained results. The descriptive method is applied to describe the peculiarities of toponym reproduction, and the comparative method is used to identify differences between original names and their Turkish counterparts. Methods of historical and linguistic analysis are also used in studying Turkish written sources from the 16th-18th centuries, including cartographic materials, chronicles, annals, and official state documents. Methods of transcriptional analysis and etymological research are applied to study the phonetic and semantic adaptation of toponyms. Results. The study revealed key linguistic challenges and difficulties that arose in reproducing Ukrainian geographical names in Turkish. It was established that these difficulties were caused by structural, phonetic, and morphological differences between the language systems involved, as well as his…

AZERBAIJAN THEATRE:ITS ROLE, HISTORY OF DEVELOPMENT, REASONS FOR SUCCESS, CHALLENGES AND PROBLEMS
type: item
description: Background. The history of Azerbaijani theatre is a rich tapestry woven from various cultural influences and artistic expressions. This article explores Azerbaijan's earliest theatrical forms, tracing their roots and examining their impact on the development of a unique theatrical identity. This comprehensive review chronicles the trajectory of Azerbaijani theatre, highlighting its origins, key transformations, and enduring socio-cultural significance. Azerbaijan's position within this global context was unique due to its strategic location at the crossroads of Eastern Europe and Western Asia. Theatre in Azerbaijan emerged as a potent medium of expression, reflecting societal aspirations, struggles, and transformations. This article sheds light on the establishment of early theatre initiatives in the late 19th century, emphasizing their role in language preservation, national identity formation, and social commentary. The narrative further explores the challenges and eventual triumphs encountered by this nascent art form. Drawing from a diverse array of sources, the study explores the evolving role of theatre in Azerbaijan – from a form of entertainment to an educational tool, embracing technological advancements in the 21st century. In this way, Azerbaijan's early theatres contributed to: language preservation, national identity formation, empowerment and emancipation; acting as a bridge between past and present, fostering cultural exchange and diplomacy, advancing education and enlightenment, and serving as an economic catalyst. Like other artistic movements worldwide, the journey of Azerbaijani theatre was marked by both defeats and victories. While its emergence was a bold statement of cultural assertion, its sustainability required perseverance, innovation, and resilience. Despite these challenges, Azerbaijani theatre experienced remarkable triumphs: community support, recognition beyond borders, an evolving legacy, a platform for social discourse, an education…

THE COGNITIVE-PRAGMATIC ASPECTS OF THE INAUGURAL SPEECH OF THE PRESIDENT OF THE REPUBLIC OF KOREA YOON SUK YEOL ON MAY 10, 2022, IN CONTEMPORAL POLITICAL DISCOURSE
type: item
description: Background. The article is devoted to the contemporary Korean political discourse taking into account the cultural context, namely the high-contextuality and hermeneutics of Korean culture. Politically oriented texts are always an indicator of national values, because political thinking and linguistic specificity of public speeches are in close interaction. The political speech actualizes the religious and philosophical traditions of the Korean-Asian civilizational model, is characterized by a high level of formality, focuses on the use of language formulas, and unfolds narratives important for modern Korean society. Methods . It is through the systematization of all the above empirical data that the cognitive model of political discourse is outlined and the speech is defined as an integral process of interaction of cognitive, communicative and pragmatic factors, as well as a means of effective implementation of influence on the audience. In order to reveal implicitly expressed connections between language, power and ideology in the text of the inaugural speech of the acting president of the Republic of Korea, Yoon Suk Yeol, the method of critical discourse analysis was used. Results . Conclusions about the qualitative characteristics of political communication were made on the basis of quantitative data using content analysis. The suggestive potential of a political speech is realized through the structural and syntactic organization of the text - this is a special complex-wave rhythm based on the repetition and alternation of formal and lexical-grammatical elements and the functioning of dynamic text groups centered on key words. Conclusions . Determining the hierarchy of values relevant only within Korean culture, for which political discourse was created, is a primary task for decoding the inner content of political life, reproducing communicative intentions, and when analyzing the political discourse of East Asian countries.

COMPLIMENTS IN PERSIAN-SPEAKING COMMUNICATION: UNIVERSAL AND ETHNOSPECIFIC
type: item
description: Background. The relevance of the study is determined by the need to develop the appropriate sociocultural competence of students studying Eastern languages in Ukrainian universities. Compliment is one of the ethno-specific speech acts (SA) functioning in the Persian linguistic and cultural area. Discovering the strategies which Persian speakers apply when giving and receiving compliments will help to understand the specific features of the cognitive mechanisms underlying their communicative behavior, and to make certain conclusions about their axiological world's image. Methods. (i) Comparative – to analyze the views of Western and Iranian researchers on the nature of compliments and responses to them; (ii) discourse analysis – to identify various social, mental, cultural, etc. factors that influence the complementary behavior of Persian speakers; (iii) intent analysis – to identify actual, explicitly non-expressed intentions of participants in Persian-speaking complimentary interaction. Results. It has been established that the compliment SA in Persian-speaking communication is closely related to the cultural schemes šekastenafsi 'modesty' and ša'n 'dignity' – integral components of the Persian politeness system ta'ārof. When responding to a compliment, Iranians tend to downplay the object of the compliment, raising the status of the initiator of the compliment instead. Also they apply this strategy when communicating in English, which demonstrates how valuable it is and how deep it is rooted in the Persian linguistic consciousness. Conclusions. In both English-speaking and Persian-speaking communicative behavior there is one common element – the desire to respond positively to a compliment, yet avoiding self-praise. Functioning of Persian-language compliments demonstrates its ethno-specific nature in the following cases: 1) when the reaction to a compliment on a thing of the addressee becomes a counteroffer to accept that thing as a gift; 2) when women are complim…
