The article is devoted to the research of semantic features of legal terminology on the example of judgments of the United Kingdom Supreme Court. The author has analyzed definitions and features of a legal term, its place in the general terminology science system and the role in legal linguistics development. Besides, the examples of semantic features of legal terms and reasons of their emergence have been depicted. The types of legal terms of the British English according to the semantic features have been classified. The semantic analysis of legal terms revealed in the UK Supreme Court judgment shas been conducted. Tak ing into account that the legal text is the main element of the legal discourse that is the reason of social and legal development, the author takes into consideration the fact that legal texts stem from professional lawyers who create those texts paying attention to the peculiarities of community functioning. The fact that law status is very high and its language determines the culture level of law creators is undeniable. Functioning as a cognitive and ordering element, legal texts obtain the features of an academic text as well as the features of instruction. Therefore, this has served as a profound source for the linguistic research. Having studied the semantic peculiarities of British English legal terms, approximately 300 lexemes have been analyzed. Consequently, legal terms have been divided into intentional and extensional, and into polysemantic, monosemantic and nominatve. This classification has provided an opportunity to study a semantic derivation of legal terminology in detail, and has contributed to the appropriate usage of terms within legal discourse.

Нормативне вживання мовознавчих термінів в умовах тестових завдань з української мови у форматі ЗНО

У статті схарактеризовано особливості використання в умовах тестових завдань з української мови у форматі зовнішнього незалежного оцінювання мовознавчої термінної лексики з погляду нормативності та відповідності академічній мовознавчій науці і шкільному курсу української мови на матеріалі сертифікаційних робіт з української мови і літератури за 2013–2015 роки. Досліджено неуніфіковане вживання окремих мовознавчих термінів і запропоновано науково обґрунтовані їхні відповідники. (The article describes peculiarities of using linguistic terms under the Ukrainian language test conditions in External Independent Testing format due to normativity and their correspondence to academic and linguistic science and Ukrainian language school course on the material of certification works in the Ukrainian language and literature for the period of 2013–2015. Uncontrolled use of certain linguistic terms is investigated and their scientifically-based equivalents are proposed. It is proved that outside of modern linguistics terminology standards there is a term «м’який знак» (miakyi znak), its modern normative equivalent should be considered «знак м’якшення» (znak miakshennia) which, firstly, corresponds to terminology of modern academic spelling; secondly, reflects the terminology base of school spelling recorded in the current curricula and textbooks for primary and basic school. It is not appropriate to use stylistically marked adjective маленький (malenkyi) as a part of a linguistic term «мала літера» (mala litera) because it breaks neutrality as one of the main features of the terms. According to the Russian-Ukrainian dictionary Ukrainian equivalent to Russian linguistic term «строчная буква» is «мала літера» (mala litera) and not «маленька літера» (malenka litera). Subordinate part should not be called subordinate sentence under the conditions of the Ukrainian language test in EIT format: the use of the term «subordinate sentence» instead of «subordinate part» is scientifically unfounded. Given examples of terminology variation do not enrich the vocabulary of terminology base of Ukrainian language school course but on the contrary – shake it. Based on this, when using linguistic terms under the test conditions in EIT format, it is important to remember that they should fully meet the academic and school grammar requirements.
