Abstract. The paper is devoted to studying the specificities of the authorial communication strategies implementation in two different types of discourse such as scientific and popular science discourse. The objective of the study is to compare a strategic organization of the texts written by the same author within scientific and popular science discourse. The possibility of such an analysis is due to the involvement of scientists in the promotion and popularization of scientific achievements alongside the publication of the research results in scientific journals.

The main approach of the research is focused on the interpretation of the term communication strategy as a particular setting of communicative tasks in accordance with the situation and the participants of the communication. Furthermore, a key factor in differentiating the strategies of scientific and popular science discourse is a number of characteristics of the scientific knowledge recipient. Particular attention is paid to the issue of the interaction between scientific and popular science discourse. The comparative analysis of the publications made it possible to identify differences in the ways of implementing similar communication strategies in scientific and popular science texts, to establish the main trends in the use of strategic transformations. The results of the study confirm the importance of the addressee’s factor and the level of their knowledge in selecting the most appropriate communicative tactics, techniques and strategies.

Keywords: authorial strategies, communicative strategies and tactics, scientific discourse, popular science discourse, addressee.

Abstract. The paper is devoted to the description of the means and features of the discursive construction of the image of war represented in the antiwar Japanese novel “One Soldier” written by the Japanese author Tayama Katai. The analysis includes a literary concept description algorithm which forms a cognitive basis for the image being constructed.

The research is based on the model of image including a conceptual core, ideological content and pragmatic shell. The analysis of every part of the model allows to describe multifacetedly the image of war.

It is concluded that the conceptual basis of the image has a hierarchical structure and includes the microconcept “war” («戦争» /senso:/), the basic concepts “army” («軍» /gun/) and “competence” («対戦» /taisen/), and the individual concepts “suffering” («悩み» /nayami/) and “memory” («記憶» /kioku/). This conceptual hierarchy results in the discursive basis of the image of war represented as a wound on a society depicting not the good and bad, but the pain and suffering.

Key words: discursive construction, war, Japanese antiwar prose, the Japanese language, literary concept, conceptual analysis.

Abstract. Based on the use of the experience of previous systematizations and the achievements of the new scientific paradigm, the author supports the adherents of the polynomial classification of the Turkic languages. Earlier, a separate Yakut classification type (taxon) was established along with the Chuvash, Oguz, Karluk-Uygur, Kyrgyz-Kypchak, and Uryankhai. Moreover, taxa arose in the Pra-Türkic language. In the Yakut language, the main stages are revealed: 1) the Pra-Türkic time: up to the 1st century BC, Mongolia, the emergence of the Yakut classification type; 2) ancient Turkic time: from the 1st century BC, Mongolia before the 10th century A.D., Circumbaikal region, the ancient Yakut language; 3) Middle Ages: from the 10th century, the Cirkumbaikal region to the 17th century, Yakutia, the Middle Yakut language; 4) New time: from the 17th century, Yakutia to the modern Republic of Sakha within the Russian Federation, the Yakut language.

Key words: Yakut identity, genetic polynomial classification, the Leipzig-Jakarta list, haplotype, Caucasoid genetic admixture, periodization of the Yakut language.

Abstract. The subject matter of the paper is the speech act of warning and its communicative function and pragmatic potential in English political discourse. The theoretical background of the research is a set of principles and assumptions of cognitive pragmatics to the study of the semantic and pragmatic properties of the speech act. Of central concern in the study is the issue of illocutionary potential of the speech act of warning.  The study reveals syncretic nature of the speech act of warning that has both an assertive and a directive use. The paper brings into focus the issue of the complex hybrid nature of the speech act of warning.  The study discusses focus shift mechanism as a cognitive operation involved in the illocutionary potential of the speech act of warning .The paper considers pragmatic potential of the speech act of warning in maintaining power relations in political discourse. The results obtained may be helpful for further study of illocutionary semantics of speech acts.

Key words: speech act of warning, illocutionary semantics, assertive illocutionary point, directive illocutionary point, hybrid speech act, syncretic speech act, focus shift.

The linguistic status of the names in the sphere of “New information technologies”

Abstract. The article deals with the analysis of the possibility of referring the names of social networks, online services, messengers, video hosting platforms, etc. to the category of proper names. Russian and foreign linguists’ opinions on the problem of attributing commercial names to proper names or common names is presented. The names of services in the language system belong to pragmatonyms, the subcategory of proper names. Their characteristic features, such as word-building models, are revealed. The four main word-building models are: blending, metaphorical extension, creating new words which sound like English words, abbreviation. Linguistic creativity required from those who make new commercial names rests on the senses which the creators of services want to convey. Metonymy plays the main role in the development of meanings of new words, which takes place according to the scheme ‘company name – name of the service – personal account – message’, where some of the positions may remain empty. Verbs which derive from the names of services are usually capitalized.

Keywords: Online services, social networks, messengers, onomastics, proper name, common name, commercial name, pragmatonym.
