Current trends in language ecosystem for a sustainable world
The article touches upon the issues of neology and ecolinguistics that are relevant for modern linguistics. From the point of view of ecolinguistics, language is an ecosystem capable of constantly changing and self-regulating. In this ecosystem, new words are constantly being formed, the meanings of old words are changing, which reflects the most significant processes and changes taking place in society at the moment of its development. The aim of this article is to identify current trends in language development reflecting the sustainable development of modern society: the features of the functioning of derived neologisms in modern English, the role of borrowings in replenishing the vocabulary of the language, as well as the study and determination of the specifics of their use in various spheres of life. The studied neologisms reflect almost all areas of life of modern English-speaking society, while most of the new lexical units are vocabulary related to everyday life, household needs, medicine and science caused by the coronavirus pandemic

Unusual Antonymy: Inter-Part-Of-Speech Interaction in English Fictional Discourse
The article focuses on the phenomenon of inter-part-of-speech antonymy and types of inter-part-of-speech antonymic oppositions typical of the English language and represented in authentic sources, in particular, fiction books of English-speaking writers. The paper analyzes cognitive foundation and linguistic sources of the oppositions in question, describes their range within each part of speech as well as contextual means of intensifying the oppositional contrast. The authors argue that the traditional point of view, according to which only words belonging to one and the same part of speech can form antonymic oppositions, is insufficient and claims that inter-part-of-speech antonymy has a semantical and grammatical nature as it is based on the ability of the language to give different categorial form to the same fragments of reality. The results of the research show that practically all works of fiction include inter-part-of-speech antonymic oppositions, which thus can be treated as a regular language phenomenon. The paper contributes to the theory of parts of speech, giving additional information about their interaction and its cognitive basis. It also enriches the theory of antonymy, proposing a wide approach to antonymic oppositions
