APPLIED LINGUISTICS
DO WE “UNDERSTAND” THE LANGUAGE? WHY SHOULD WE USE A DETERMINER?
Absract. Knowledge of the norm is not a claim, but a fundamental communicative intention of the linguistic personality. Our ability to express
ourselves and to be understood, to understand others as they express themselves is a function of language proficiency and its norms and stays as
a proof of this. The culture of our linguistic consciousness means mastering literary norms. Definitiveness is a grammatical phenomenon that requires a profound and categorical analysis which to become a methodology of linguistic consciousness. The science of language should here most of all answer the question “why?” Answers to the questions “what” and “how” we are using
noun determiner are not sufficient for the linguistic personality.
Keywords: linguistic personality; communicative intention; methodology of linguistic consciousness

BULGARIAN EDI-PRONOUNS AND THEIR EQUIVALENTS IN BULGARIAN AND RUSSIAN
Absract. In Bulgarian a specific type of indefinite pronouns (formed with ЕДИ-) has been observed. Their role is not only to substitute the original information in the reported speech, but also to reduce it and make
it “unspecific”. In Russian the same role is undertaken by the demonstrative pronouns of the type такой-то, тот-то, тогда-то. Very often these pronouns are semantically ambiguous. The current paper presents a contrastive corpus study of Bulgarian and Russian forms of the pronouns in question. The Bulgarian-Russian equivalents are described in their nominal, adjectival and
adverbial usages. The similarities and differences are outlined in the structure of the “unspecifying” nominal phrases, in the position of the elements as well as in their functions
Keywords: indefinite pronouns; reported speech; reduced speech; Bulgarian; Russian

PROBLEMS OF IDENTIFICATION AND ANALYSIS OF INTERLANGUAGE PARALLELS IN RUSSIAN AND BULGARIAN LEGAL TERMINOLOGY (BASED ON THE CRIMINAL LAW OF RUSSIA AND BULGARIA)
Abstract. The article argues the need for systematization and complex description of formally matching interlanguage correspondences of Slavic and non-Slavic origin, in which at least one lexical unit belongs to the legal terminology of the Russian or Bulgarian language. Identified are the main theoretical and methodological problematic issues associated with the study
of this phenomenon, proposed are ways for overcoming them - also using automated methods of processing natural language. The analysis of the formally coincident units, identified in the criminal legislation of Russia and Bulgaria, allows drawing preliminary conclusions about the types of interlanguage
parallels in Russian and Bulgarian legal terminology and outlining prospects
for their study in future.
Keywords: legal term; lexicography; translation; interlanguage correspondences; semantic equivalence

METHODOLOGY
TECHNOLOGY FOR THE FORMATION OF HYPERTEXT COMPETENCE IN THE CONTEXT OF TEACHING FOREIGN LANGUAGES AT UNIVERSITY
Abstract. The article is devoted to the problem of developing students’ skills and abilities to work with hypertext as the main information unit in the information society. The purpose of this article is to substantiate the need for targeted training of students to work with hypertext in the target language and to develop a technology for the formation of hypertext competence in the context of teaching foreign languages.The basis for identifying the specifics of hypertext and determining the constituent components of hypertext competence was the reliance on systemic and typological approaches using methods: analysis, synthesis, comparison and generalization.Theoretical and methodological analysis of domestic and foreign scientific literature in combination with empirical methods (observation, questioning) made it possible to substantiate the need to develop students’ skills and abilities to work with hypertext, to study the experience of students with texts of this type and to develop a technology for the formation of hypertext competence. In order to test the hypothesis put forward and the effectiveness of the developed technology for the formation of hypertext competence in teaching a foreign language, experimental training was carried out. In the course of the study, the specifics of hypertext were determined from the point of view of linguistics and linguodidactics, and the components of hypertext competence were identified. Based on the experience of students working with hypertext, difficulties were identified and the main tasks of targeted training in working with these texts were identified, the result of which is the formation of hypertext competence. Hypertext is a modern informational phenomenon, the ability to work with which is becoming key today both in the professional and everyday spheres. Possession of hypertext competence allows you to rationally use external sources to obtain additional information, design an individual informationspace and thus contribute to the creation of your own educational trajectory. The developed technology for the formation of hypertext competence involves phase-byphase training in working with hypertext. This technology relies on the experience of working with “traditional” text, but taking into account the specifics of hypertext, and focuses on mastering a new strategy for working with information.
