5. ^ N. Engel (Bad Windsheim/Germany). Speech Acts, Frames, Discourse Markers, Tags in Intercultural Contexts
Once in a while it is a good idea to bring to life linguistic tools usually taken for granted. The individual context created by one's cultural background decisively influences the proper analysis of a speech act or frame. Even discourse markers or tags can cause very different reactions by H from what S would have expected.
6. ^ I. Gerasimenko (Magadan). Assessment in Business Correspondence: Sociopragmatic Aspect
There is an opinion that assessment runs through all speech activity of a man, that it is the main constituent of any speech act. In this paper I will examine speech acts with the elements of assessment in American and Russian business correspondence and the influence of sociolinguistic factors and different intentions people may have for saying something.
7. ^ I. Girina (Khabarovsk). Linguistic Means of Creating Images in Mass Media

8. ^ C. Karavanova (Khabarovsk). The Peculiarities of Understanding J. Joyce’s Novel “Ulysses” as a Cognitive Problem
Reading and understanding modernistic prose of British authors has always been a problem. It is connected with the very complicated linguistic structure of the texts. Modernists tried to find a completely new revolutionary method of writing. For Joyce a new method in his novel “Ulysses” was the goal in itself. Understanding the text in such case requires more profound way of textual analysis. The development of a cognitive approach to the novel “Ulysses” will give us a deeper understanding of the text.
9. ^ N. Karaziya (Petropavlovsk-Kamchatski). Manipulative Discourse as a Subject of Linguistic Research
The problem of speech manipulation has been investigated in a vast array of linguistic studies, but many scholars emphasize that the notion of manipulation or manipulative discourse is very difficult to define and argue that manipulative discourse does not have distinct borders. The current development of communication-oriented approaches in linguistics provides new opportunities for investigation of manipulative discourse.
10. ^ T. Karpukhina (Khabarovsk). The Hermeneutic Aspect of Morphemic Repetition in English Artistic Prose
Analysis of artistic prose shows that morphemically related words functioning as the key constitutive elements may serve as a significant message carrier.
11. ^ T. Khrushchyova (Khabarovsk). Analyses of American and Russian Personal Classified From Gender Perspective

13. T. Kopus (Ussuriisk) Conceptual Analysis of DOUBT and СОМНЕНИЕ: Different in Cultures or Universal?
To be or not to be? English and Russian languages equally fix doubt expression as an intellectual and emotional stance. Through the analysis of cognitive and social scripts of DOUBT and СОМНЕНИЕ in two cultures a significant difference is displayed, especially found in locutions. The paper reports on the results of the analysis.
14. ^ L. Kraynik (Vladivostok). Directness as Social Chronotope
The report views directness as a socio-cultural category which has spatial and temporal characteristics. Time and Space are used by socio-humanitarian sciences. They are referred to as social time and social space which enables us to use the term ‘social chronotop’. The speaker will describe the category of directness as a social chronotop and explore its specifity for British and American linguacultures.
15. ^ L. Kulchitskaya (Vladivostok). Metaphor in Earth Science Texts
Recent studies showed that scientific texts cannot dispense with the language of images. The author reviewed some English materials on Earth Sciences and found that some texts have no metaphors. Where they occur metaphors range in frequency – from abundant through scarce to none, – and in force. An attempt is made to reveal a correlation between the type of scientific text and metaphor frequency.
16. ^ N. Kuptsova (Khabarovsk). Translation of Scientific and Technical Texts
The dominance of English is on the increase nowadays especially in scientific and professional sphere. We observe creation of monolingual culture in scientific and professional discourse. The role of translation and translator in communication between scientists and specialists is getting more important.
17. ^ E. Kuzevanova (Moscow). The Syncretism of Temporal and Locative Adverbial Meanings
Prepositional substantive groups of local semantics as adverbial modifiers in the English sentence are under consideration. The degree of the locative meaning interrelation with that of the semantics of the groups under study is determined. Some examples of the compound temporal-locative meaning occurrence and the role of the context in the phenomenon under study are analyzed.
18. ^ M. Lebedko (Vladivostok). Realization of Ethnic Stereotypes in Creolized Texts
Creolized text presupposes integration of verbal and nonverbal expressions structured in one textual space. We share some authors’ views that iconic language is close to the semiotic nature of a natural language and has denotative and connotative meanings. The informative and pragmatic capacity of nonverbal means in creolized texts is believed to exceed the capacity of verbal means. Realized in creolized texts ethnic stereotypes have cognitive and affective basis, which affects the perceiver.
19. ^ M. Lisikhina (Khabarovsk). Functions of the Macro-speech Act of Discrediting in American Communicative Culture
The study of the pragmatic functions of macro-speech acts of discrediting in the American communicative culture reveals its multinational character. The paper explores the correlation between the functions of discrediting and linguistic means employed by the speakers in everyday interactions. Response utterances come under analysis as a means of determining the efficiency of communication.
20. ^ G. Lovtsevich (Vladivostok). Terminological Dictionary in the Light of Intercultural Communication

23. ^ T. Ma (Blagoveschensk). Presupposition as the Constituent of Text Interpretation
Studied are the main aspects of the theory of presupposition in linguistics and culture communication. Theory of presupposition is viewed as a part of the textual interpretation problem, i.e. when the text contains information about the culture and history of the country described. Different kinds of presupposition and equivalent scientific phenomena are analyzed.
24. ^ E. Malneva (Khabarovsk). “Total Effect, Unity, and Integrity”: Holistic Approach to Structuring the Artistic Concept DREAM
Artistic concepts are considered to be multilayered complex mental phenomena subject to various procedures of explication. The artistic concept Dream, the dominant mental construct permeating the artistic universe of E.A. Poe, is believed to be characterized by “Totality, Unity, and Integrity”; the latter principles result in its being structured holistically which, in its turn, requires the holistic approach to the concept’s analysis.
25. ^ Yu. Maximova (Khabarovsk). Verbal and Non-verbal Means of Expressing Compromise in Mono- and Intercultural Communication (Based on J. Clavell’s Novel “Gai-Jin”)
The article introduces the results of linguistic analysis of the belles-lettres style works written in English (J. Clavell’s “Gai-Jin”, in particular). The analysis has been done with the purpose of revealing and comparing ways of expressing compromise achieved in different cultures. Compromise seems to belong to many spheres of human studies except linguistics. It can be regarded both as a result and a process of achieving success in communication. From the linguistic point of view, in our opinion, it is worth while analyzing the ways in which compromise is expressed. The way compromise is presented in literature depends on the cultural priorities of the personages.
26. ^ J. K. McRae (Khabarovsk). “Plain English”
The paper discusses the definition of ‘plain English’ and the reasons for the modern emphasis on simple clearly expressed written English. Some strategies are suggested to assist writers to improve their written English style.
27. ^ E. Megrabova (Vladivostok). The Image of Russia in the Mirror of ‘Voices’ of Newsweek Magazine
The ‘Voice’ is a participant of mass communication? one of the means of the argumentative function of mass media discourse; the so called ‘Voices’ belong to political figures of foreign countries and various layers of Russia’s population differing in their social position and nationality group status.

28. ^ Ya. Olefir (Vladivostok). Contemporary American Neologisms in TV Shows
The English language is constantly being enriched with new components. TV and, in particular popular American TV shows play an important role in the process of coining new words and their recording in language. What is the basis of the appearance of neologisms and what are the ways of their formation?

30. ^ M. Plumlee (Seoul). What Linguistic Tokens Say About Cultural Values
This task demonstrates new ways of investigating language expressions to reveal subtleties about the linguistic encoding of cultural values that may remain unnoticed, even by culturally competent individuals from that linguaculture. Findings from my study of the intercultural practices of Korean students, as well as examples from recent work by Wierzbicka, Peeters, Clifford, Beal and their colleagues in Australia and Europe will illustrate this methology.
31. ^ I. Postoenko (Khabarovsk). Stereotyping in Intercultural Communication
Stereotyping is a process of overgeneralization. It focuses on the simplistic contrast between cultural groups. Stereotypes limit our understanding of human behavior and of intercultural discourse. They limit our view of activity to just one or two salient dimensions and consider those to be the whole picture. The essay presents an analysis of ethnic stereotypes of the students of Far-Eastern State University of Humanities and Far Eastern State Transport University.
32. ^ Z. Proshina (Moscow). Russian English: Pride or Prejudice?
The presentation will discuss the legitimacy of Russian English as a variety in the World Englishes Paradigm, as well the distinctive linguistic features and functions of this regional variety of English.
33. ^ A. Pshenichnikova (Vladivostok). On Verbalizing Directives in Pedagogical Discourse (in American Communicative Culture)
Characteristics of teachers’ speech behavior are seen in the specific choice of linguistic means of expressing politeness in directives. When addressing students, teachers favor the “command” style of speech behavior and reject verbal means that make a directive uncategorical and indirect. Thus, teachers break norms of polite speech behavior that are prescribeв by American communicants to exercise tact, noninvasiveness and respect for partners’ privacy, etc.
34. ^ M. Rassokha (Vladivostok). Creolized Texts (Cartoons) in the Processes of Linguacultural Identification
Sometimes humour is used for identifying the Other. The emphasis in the paper is placed on linguacultural identity of the British and Americans negotiated through cartoons. The presenter refers to the key role of these creolized texts in the construction of collective British and American identities within the discourse on language ownership.
35. ^ E. Revenko (Blagoveschensk). Food Metaphor in Ethic and Gender Perspective
Food metaphor in language has always been considered a projection of gender stereotypes rooted in mind and shaped by culture. Assuming that gender stereotypes reflect specific cognitive models, the paper shows difference in conceptualizing masculinity and femininity through analysis of food metaphor. The research reveals significant shifts in conceptualizing gender through food metaphor, which are both historically and culturally bound.
36. ^ E. Ryabko (Khabarovsk). Ways to Translate Intertextual Signs Which Compile the Reader’s Intertextual Encyclopaedia
When reading a text a reader relies on his/her experience of dealing with other texts, on the so-called encyclopaedic/intertextual competence. The knowledge which forms this competence compiles the intertextual encyclopaedia. Its structure is far from being homogeneous among linguo-cultural communities. Thus, there is a challenge for a translator to find ways to convey the knowledge presupposed by the intertextual signs.
37. ^ Yu. Salnikova (Birobidzhan). Cooperative Speech Behaviour in the Speech Event of Evaluation
The article deals with the problem of cooperative speech behavior in the speech event of evaluation in American mass media discourse.

41. ^ E. Strelkova (Khabarovsk). Concepts-oppositions in Cognitive Linguistics
The relations of opposition have always been the object of interest for many linguists. Nowadays the study of oppositional concepts has become widespread in cognitive linguistics, conceptology and ethnopsycholinguistics. It can be explained by the concepts’ cross-cultural character. The author of this research tries to summarize the vast material collected in linguistics for the last two decades.
42. ^ S. Ter-Minasova (Moscow). War and Peace of Languages and Cultures
Language and culture are both a barrier separating peoples and a shield protecting their national identity. In both of these roles every language and culture protect their “subjects” by means of various kinds of tricks, traps, “ambushes”, etc preventing “aliens” from intruding into their domain. The paper presents various kinds of such “wars” with other languages and cultures.
43. ^ L. Toropova (Khabarovsk). Referential Potential of Beauty Aesthetic Evaluation (Linguasemiotic Analysis)

46. ^ L. Vasylieva (Blagoveschensk). Modus Categorization in News Items and Analytical Articles of Modern American Press
Modus categorization reflects ways a speaker interprets conceptual contents. Using modus categories the speaker can express modal and evaluating meanings (category of modality, evidence, approximate evaluation, persuasion) and emotional states (category of emotivity). Each category can be specifically realized in different types of discourse, including mass media discourse.
47. ^ E. Vishnyakova (Khabarovsk). The Problem of the Objectiveness of the Linguistic Model of Reality
The linguistic model of reality is the reflection of the results of the cognition of the real world, i.e. the reflection of the concepts kept in the human mind. And this is a simplified reflection. The language manifests a certain view on the world and establishes a unique way of comprehending reality. Reality is refracted through a language prism, the reflection angle being different with different languages. Thus our conceptual model of reality is not its perfect image, but an approximation of reality.
48. ^ V. Vyalkova (Birobidzhan). Semantics of Colour Nomination and Colour Symbolism in English Prose

There is a strong tendency of research interest (among linguists of Russia and foreign countries) towards the language of Business Communication in general and Business Letter in particular. Besides careful study and detailed description of business vocabulary, grammatical, syntactical, and stylistic peculiarities of the Business Letter, special attention should be paid to the verbal representation of different national business communication stereotypes in the English speaking culture.
51. ^ N. Yuzefovich, A. Chernysheva (Khabarovsk). Foreign Linguacultural Substrate in Inter-Semiotic Translation
The paper deals with the issue of translation of the cultural substrate (artifacts, culture-specific items) in different genres. The authors dwell on the importance of a foreign culture substrate in translation as it aids in creating the world of a foreign culture.

The problems of teaching translation to the students of economics in the framework of limited class time are not well examined at all. The various practical problems and solutions accompanying the development of the curriculum will be presented and discussed in this research.
2. ^ A. Dolgan (Khabrovsk). English as a Means of Business Training Economists in the Context of the Asian Pacific Values
Economic integration of the Russian Far East in the Asian Pacific Rim will need specialists having a good command of the Asian cultural and mental peculiarities based on the moral values system as well as success of Asia economies. English is considered to be an instrument used for business training future economists in the region as this learning discipline is devoted to issues of raising competent cultural personalities, country-study, awareness of values, cross-cultural and business interaction.

8. G. Hauzenberger (Augsburg). Canadian Multiculturalism in Practice: Bilingualism and Language Immersion
This contribution explores the attempts made at Canadian schools to achieve functional bilingualism – meaning English and French – among students. Both bilingualism and multiculturalism are goals written into the Canadian constitution. Taking into consideration that a fifth of all Canadians (and hence of all Canadian parents) have migrated there, it becomes obvious that such goals often actually require trilingualism from students, as neither English nor French is their first language. The aim of this contribution is to evaluate the favourite method of second language acquisition in Canada, immersion, in the light of both the constitutional goals and the realities in the classroom.
9. ^ O. Kovbasyuk (Khabarovsk). Global Learning as a Resource to Teaching Intercultural Communication
Global learning serves the goal to enrich our understanding of world cultures and events, it teaches how to appreciate cultural diversity, and to collaborate effectively to promote world existence and peace, with the help of modern communication technologies, which allow people of vastly different cultures and widely separated countries to interact with each other on a daily basis as part of their work, studies or recreation.

12. N. Morozova (Khabarovsk). The Peculiarities of Teaching Listening as the Type of Speaking Activities
The presenter will share the ideas of livening up a listening lesson with authentic materials, namely songs, for increasing its efficiency.
13. ^ I. Palayeva (Blagoveschensk). Gender expertise of School Textbooks of the English language edited by V. Kuzovlev
Changes in educational policy of the modern Russian society make gender expertise of school textbooks urgent and topical. The main objective of gender expertise is to collect qualitative information which helps to reveal “hidden threats” for children’s personality, to define the level of gender stereotypes in educational material on different stages of the English language teaching. Textbooks “English” for 5-11 forms edited by V. Kuzovlev were chosen to go through gender expertise.
14. ^ J. Polshina, E. Onoprienko (Vladivostok). Expanding Vocabulary at Advanced Level: Implementing Novel Approaches
As the authors of textbook and workbook for English majors (Major in English III) we have come to understand that expanding vocabulary at advanced level requires approaches different from what we may apply at lower levels. The primary goals at the advanced level are raising vocabulary awareness, developing Fifth (thinking) skill and achieving learner’s autonomy through challenging and engaging tasks.
15. ^ N. Proshyants (Vladivostok). The Use of Innovative Methods in Teaching English with the Computer Support
The use of innovative methods of teaching English with computer support developed both for contact hours and autonomous students learning contributes to the increase of time for learning English and enhances learners’ motivation. The complex of laboratory work and various tests developed by the teachers of the English department and the teachers of the departments majoring in engineering sciences is considered in the paper.
16. ^ Stephen M. Ryan (Japan). The Role of Cultural Experience in Language Learning
The connection between language and culture is so clearly established that it no longer needs documentation. However, the role of cultural experience in language learning is less well thought through. It is perhaps a truism that direct experience of target language culture is an ideal motivator for language learning, but very often it is only students who have already reached a high level of foreign language proficiency who are offered the chance to travel abroad through language-teaching programmes. The presenter will discuss this contradiction and suggest an alternative – Culture Experience Programmes.
17. ^ N. Rezanova (Khabarovsk). Psychophysiological Characteristics and Dominant sense Modality in Foreign Language Teaching
The fact that the traditional ways and styles of teaching a foreign language are not always relevant to the leading sense modality of a student may be causing a number of problems such as the restriction of student’s efficiency, the stereotypes and some effects on the hemisphere which is not dominant. Perception based on different types of sense modality involves the work of both sides of the brain. The creative competence and the creative approach are considered to be the possible ways of overcoming difficulties related to neurophysiological characteristics according to the dominant sense modality.
18. ^ V. Safonova (Moscow). Multicultural Competence as a Challenge in the World of Multilingual Language Pedagogy

20. ^ O. Salikhova (Khabarovsk). Les conditions didactiques de l’acquisition de competence linguistique de base
L’acquisition du FLE se fait souvent en langue seconde L2 ( anglais, allemend ou d’autres) voir troisième L3. Elle est effectuée dans le cadre du goupe hétérogène où les apprenants ont tous l’expérience d’acquisition de la première langue etrangère LE1 qui se varie selon apprenant. L’acquisition de compétence linguistique de base assure l’intégration rapide et efficace des participants du groupe dans l’apprentissage ultérieure du FLE. La tâche essentielle de l’ouvrage en question sera donc d’examiner les conditions didactiques de l’acquisition de compétence linguistique de base.

Discourse-oriented education is needed to teach effective functioning to prospective specialists in the sphere of professional intercultural communication. Based on the principles of contextualization, authenticity, language awareness and integration, the teaching process involves all layers of the language, including grammar.To master a language unit, e.g. an infinitive construction, a student should be exposed to group interactive activities through various intercultural communicative models, employing strategies of cooperation, concession, evasion and others.
26. ^ J. Walter (Augsburg). Foreign language teacher education in Europe – top-down influences from past to present
Ever since its foundation in 1951, the European Union (EU) has been supportive of and has been calling for changes in the field of language and educational policy. Not only due to the outstanding importance of languages in Europe has the Union become one of the leading actors in the field. Among other things, this development has certain influences on initial foreign language teacher education (FLTE) at university level in Europe.
This contribution focuses on European level top-down impulses effecting on FLTE. It presents a diachronic overview, starting in 1951 and taking the relevant political background into account. While thus outlining the main aspects of European top-down activity, it also aims at defining the Union’s current expectations. As they are (or should be) important for the member states’ educational policy, this contribution aims to create a deeper understanding for changes in European FLTE, an understanding that is of fundamental importance for any active participation in the process of change.

La communication publicitaire, comme une variante de la communication de masse, a sa spécifité dont la représentation materielle est manifestée dans les textes de la publicité écrite. Le texte de la publicité écrite est un produit organisé d’après les règles de la communication, où les moyens structuraux, verbaux, visuels et symboliques sont égaux. Pour définir les particularités de la publicité écrite nous nous apuyons sur des exemples authentiques de la publicité éctite qui sont pris dans les journaux et des magazines (les textes publicitaires dans la presse de la Russie et de la France).

3. ^ E. Bojko (Krasnoyarsk). Signs for Understanding the Church Slavonic Text
The theory of meaning is based on the concept of sign. Words or word forms are considered in linguistics as signs. Such approach is incomplete when analyzing the Church Slavonic texts. Linguistic material taken from the Old Believer community living on the Yenisei shows that words, letter variations in a line, the length of space between words and lower case signs are the markers of meaning. Old Believers are Russian people who have preserved the Old Belief.
