Forgotten (death poem)
Розміщено 25-05-10 у розділі НавколоСлова.
Life, death, despair, love tradegy… Passion, simply blind love passion.
Forgotten by the Gods,
Crucified on rigid thorns
By twisted dreams in storms
Inside neuronal heavy pulse,
You damn the vanity of life,
Look on celestial lucid skies,
Admiring mystic suicides
Of fallen nightly fair sprites. Далі>>

Where I am?

Interesting question! When “life poetry” pretty sucks we often ask ourselves about meaning, moving, choosing, ending… But such essential questions are futile, unnecessary and meaningless. I think lot’s of people are familiar with such jazz and can easily put into paper own depression quotes. Here is short depressive sad poem: Далі>>

Peculiarities of Newspaper Style in English and Ukrainian Languages 002
Differences and Similarities between Ukrainian and English Newspaper Styles (Різниця між українським і англійським журналістськими діловими стилями)
According to I. R. Galperin, the English newspaper writing dates from the 17-th century. It was the last of all the styles of written literary English to be recognized as a specific form of writing standing apart from other forms. But it happened only by the 19-th century that newspaper English developed into a system of language media, forming a separate function style.
The specific conditions of newspaper publication, the restriction of time and space, have left an indelible mark on newspaper English. For more than a century writers and linguists have been vigorously attacking “the slipshod construction and the vulgar vocabulary” of newspaper English. The very term newspaper English carried a shade of disparagement.(Galperin :296). And really when we translate some English article into Ukrainian, we may use some neutral or even bookish words instead of collocations, whereas when we translate some Ukrainian article into English the situation is quite the reverse – we use many colloquialisms so that to create a real English newspaper style. Yet Fedorov wrote that “newspaper-texts – in contradiction to other texts – are very seldom translated completely and in “pure form” (A.B.Федоров 1977:208). Далі>>

The Role of Mass Media in Our Life (Роль мас медіа чи засобів масової інформації у нашому житті)
“When people ask about the effects of media they generally turn out to be interested in something else of which media might be a cause such as violence or political bias. A history of media could easily slip into being a history of a society as a whole. This in itself reflects the centrality of media in our lives.” (Colin Seymour-Ure 1991:239) Далі>>

Classification of Ukrainian Colloquial Vocabulary
Класифікація української розмовної мови
The whole word-stock of Ukrainian language can also be divided into standard and non-standard or colloquial. But the classification of colloquial vocabulary is a bit different in comparison with English. The whole colloquial vocabulary is subdivided into literary colloquial words and low colloquial words. There is a difference between these two layers. The literary colloquial vocabulary consists of the words which, being the part of literary norm, give the expressions some colloquial character. Literary colloquial words are characterized by emotionality, expressiveness and estimation. This expressiveness is rendered by exclamations or similar words and word-combinations: [гультяй, замазура, мастак, перекинчик, розбишака, телепень, верзтися, віднаджувати, макітритися, літувати, лопотіти, лупцювати, маніжитися, шастати, теревенити, ахкати, ойкати, хвацький, навсидячки, бозна-скільки, достобіса, хрусь, трісь, бах, гах and others].

Classification of English Colloquial Vocabulary
Класифікація англійської розмовної мови
I. V. Arnold notes that the term “colloquial” is old enough: Dr.Johnson, the great English lexicographer, used it. Yet with him it had a definitely derogatory flavor. Johnson thought colloquial words are inconsistent with good usage and, thinking that to reform the English language was his duty, he advised “to clear it from colloquial barbarisms”. By the end of the 19-th century with Neo-grammarians the description of colloquial speech came into its own, and linguists began to study the vocabulary that people actually use under various circumstances and not what they may be justified in using. (A. 1973:273).
As employed in our time, the adjective “colloquial” does not necessary mean “slangy” or “vulgar”, although slang and vulgar vocabulary make part of colloquial vocabulary. (A. 1973:274). Далі>>

Types of meanings denoted by the verb ought to
Типи значень, які виражає модальне дієслово ought to
The verb ought descends from the verb agan past tense ahte, which had in the Old English the meaning “to have, to own (possess)”. Under the influence of the row of phonetic events on time of the Early English period the infinitive agan changed into owe, and the past tense into ought. The verb agan – owe passed a complicated way of the development, as a result of which it took a new, transition meaning “to be due (owe)” (money etc.), and also more general meaning of obligation, as for example:
Also ye owen to encline and bowe youre herte to take the patience… (Chaucer, Cant. Tales, 401).
