French loan words in modern American fiction

The paper deals with the origins of modern English vocabulary and shows the relevance of the influence of French on its modern state. The article makes a survey of scientific literature studying French heritage in English lexis. An overview of linguistic and historical data is provided to show the framework within which linguistic borrowing from French was made possible. A number of loanwords are mentioned that appeared under different historical circumstances. The article analyses borrowed words that kept their meaning they had in French, as well as those ones which experienced semantic transformation. The paper concentrates on the fact that frequency of English words having French roots is high enough in the novel by J. Grisham and they form a thick layer of common words. The article demonstrates, what kind   of impact the change in culture-specific concepts had on the meaning of the words borrowed from French and highlights possible prospects of such kind of studies. The paper emphasizes semantic layers of loan words and shows that finance vocabulary, the vocabulary of law and politics and the vocabulary of health are closely connected with borrowings from French

Fairy tale therapy for children of war

The article highlights the possibilities of using fairy-tale therapy by parents, legal guardians, socionomic sphere specialists in the process of providing support and assistance to children during the war. The purpose of the article is to define the content of fairy-tale therapy and create an author’s fairy tale, which is focused on pedagogical and psychological assistance to children affected by military operations. To achieve the goal, mainly theoretical research methods were applied: study, analysis and generalization of special psychological and pedagogical literature in order to identify the investigated problem. It is emphasized that a therapeutic fairy tale heals a person’s soul, as it carries out powerful psychological work at the subconscious level. In order for the fairy-tale narrative to acquire a therapeutic character, it must reflect the child’s problem. The process of creating an author’s therapeutic fairy tale helps relieve tension in stressful situations, contributes to the constructive experience of emotions, develops communication skills, imagination, and distracts from difficult feelings. It was concluded that fairy-tale therapy is a unique method of treatment of mental health disorders caused by military actions, as children find echoes of inner experiences from their own lives in fairy tales

Функціональний стан серцево-судинної системи у баскетболісток команди першої ліги у процесі проведення лікарсько-педагогічних спостережень

Purpose: to define types of vascular reactions and tolerance to physical activity at female basketball players of the I-League. Material and Methods: analysis of scientific and methodical literature; medical and pedagogical supervision; methods of mathematical statistics. Results: the data about types of vascular reactions and tolerance to physical activity received by means of carrying out the PWC170 test in the course of medical and pedagogical supervision at female basketball players of the I-League are considered. Conclusions: it is revealed that violations of adaptation of the cardiovascular system and the decrease in the level of fitness of an organism to a loading are observed at sportswomen.

Установлено, что некорректность учебно-тренировочного процесса ассоциируется со снижением толерантности и преимущественно атипичных типов сосудистых реакций на нагрузкуМета: визначити типи судинних реакцій та толерантність до фізичного навантаження у баскетболісток першої ліги. Матеріал і методи: аналіз науково-методичної літератури; лікарсько-педагогічні спостереження; методи математичної статистики. Результати: розглянуто дані про типи судинних реакцій та толерантність до фізичного навантаження, отримані за допомогою проведення тесту PWC170, у процесі лікарсько-педагогічних спостережень у баскетболісток першої ліги. Висновки: виявлено, що у спортсменок спостерігаються порушення адаптації серцево-судинної системи та зниження рівня пристосованості організму до навантаження. Встановлено, що некоректність навчально-тренувального процесу асоціюється зі зниженням толерантності та переважанням атипічних типів судинних реакцій до фізичного навантаженн

Single nucleotide polymorphism C994g of the cytochrome P450 gene possess pleiotropic eff ects in Bos taurus, L.

The chronic consumption of mycotoxin-contaminated forage tends to the weight loss of young cattle, decreasing the reproductive success of adult animals, milk yield, and tolerance to high temperatures. The aim of this paper was to study the eff ects of the SNP C994G in the CYP3A28 gene on the productive and reproductive characteristics of dairy and beef breeds. Cows were measured by body weight dynamics, exterior, reproduction, milk production traits, bone mineral density, bulls were analyzed estimating their progeny traits. Dairy cows received dietary betaine supplement with the measurement of homocysteine levels. Molecular genetic was performed by PCR-RFLP method. The effects of SNP C994G were shown in relation to the udder size, the constitution and birth weight of Abredin-Angus cows, as well as the fat and protein content of Ukrainian Red-and-White Dairy cows milk. The higher sensitivity of the GG genotype to less homocysteine level after the addition of betaine was shown. Given the identifi ed correspondence, pleiotropic eff ects of CYP3A28 gene can be concluded. A microscopic analysis of forage supported the findings in relation to greater efficiency of the CC genotype under conditions of low mycotoxins contamination, to which CYP3A28 is selective
