Title: TRANSPOSITIONAL PROCESSES WITHIN THE UKRAINIAN VERB AND ADVERB: A CONCEPTUAL AND TERMINOLOGICAL PERSPECTIVE

Rubric: TERMINOLOGY OF LINGUISTICS. THEORY OF TERMINOGRAPHY AND PRACTICE OF BRANCH DICTIONARIES

Abstract: The article addresses the enrichment of the linguistic terminological system and revisits the part-of-speech status of morphological units from the standpoint of functional-categorial grammar. The focus is placed on the specifics of transpositional phenomena within the structure of Ukrainian verbs and adverbs. Particular attention is given to the types and degrees of inter-categorial transposition, the issues of standardization and codification of newly introduced terms in scholarly discourse that designate the processes of verbalization and adverbialization, as well as the international nature of these terms. The article identifies productive and unproductive types of verbalizations and adverbialization. To denote the varieties and degrees of inter-partial transposition in modern grammatical literature, terms-internationalisms are mainly used, which are based on Greco-Latin roots. All the analyzed terms replenish the linguistic terminological system with new units. As for the varieties of transposition, no own terms have been developed in Ukrainian studies to denote them. Raising the issue of organizing Ukrainian scientific terminology as early as the beginning of the 20th century, grammarians paid considerable attention to the assimilation of borrowed terms, especially internationalisms. The terms proposed in modern studies to denote intertransitive processes in the structure of the verb and adverb, which accompany the functioning of morphological units, are semantically motivated, since they ensure clarity and transparency of terminological definition.

Keywords: linguistic terminological system, morphological terms, transposition, functional inter-categorial transposition, degrees and types of part-of-speech transposition, verbalization, adverbialization.
