In the modern rapidly developing theory of intercultural communication, special attention is paid to the study of professional communication and the analysis of language means used therein. Every branch of professional knowledge has its own language for specific purposes. In the sphere of linguodidactics, there is a language whose metalinguistic function presents certain difficulties for communicants. Linguistic terminology is a set of language means that describe, group and classify lexical units of both native and foreign languages. At the same time, linguistic terminology is an important component of a special professional language for specific purposes. At present, much attention is given to the study of professional languages, but the language for specific purposes in the field of philology has not been sufficiently investigated. The purpose of this research was to describe the main features of linguistic terminology and identify problematic issues of its functioning. The paper is relevant due to the general need for studying linguistic terminology as one of the important tools in the work of various specialists (philologists, translators, lexicographers, terminologists, terminographers, and teachers). This research is an interdisciplinary one, since it covers a range of topical problems addressed by lexicology and lexicography, terminology science and terminography, linguodidactics, theory and practice of translation, as well as general and specific theory of language. In this paper, general linguistic methods – definitive, comparative, contrastive, and descriptive – were applied. The language material and the results of its analysis can be used by specialists in such fields as lexicography, theory and practice of translation, native and foreign language teaching, as well as terminology science.

The need to review goals, objectives and teaching methods in the process of teaching foreign languages in Ukraine in connection with the rapid entry of Ukraine into the world community, which, in its turn, leads to changes in both general methodology and specific methods, and techniques in the theory and practice of teaching foreign languages is discussed in the paper. It is noted that the main purpose of learning a foreign language is the formation of a linguistic personality who is ready for real, productive com- munication with representatives of other cultures at different levels and in different spheres of life. At the forefront is the need for verbal support for intercultural communication. Emphasis is placed on the fact that an integrative approach to foreign language teaching is especially important in the context of intercultural dialogue, which assumes that the interaction of different worldviews presented by communicators in- cludes their logics, thinking, values and is not blocked but stimulated by mutual understanding, tolerance, positive attitude. It is emphasized that relations are intercultural if their participants do not resort to their own traditions, customs, ideas and ways of behavior, but get acquainted with other people’s rules and norms of everyday communication. Intercultural communication requires that the sender and recipient of the message belong to different cultures. It also requires participants in communication to be aware of each other’s cultural differences. In essence, intercultural communication is always interpersonal communication in a special context, when one par- ticipant discovers the cultural difference of another.It is also said that successful intercultural communication involves, in addition to foreign language proficiency, the ability to adequately interpret the communicative behavior of a representative of a foreign society, as well as the willingness of partic- ipants to perceive other forms of communicative behavior, understanding its differences and variation from culture to culture. The strategy of convergence of non-cultural knowledge is aimed at preventing not only semantic but also cultural failures in communication.

Foreign language teaching for professional communication in an agrarian university is carried out on the basis of one of two approaches: a) foreign language for specific purposes and b) content and language integrated learning. The purpose of foreign language teaching within the framework of a foreign language for specific purposes is the mastering of professional vocabulary by students and teaching translation of a professional orientation text. Content and language inte-grated learning aims at a) the development of students’ foreign language communicative compe-tence in the professional sphere of communication and b) teaching a profile discipline in a foreign language. Depending on the choice of a methodic approach to teaching, the content and methods of teaching, the requirements for teaching materials and the competence of the teacher of a foreign language will change. Based on the analysis and generalization of the experience of the Voronezh State Agrarian University named after Emperor Peter the Great, the main problems associated with foreign language teaching for professional purposes in an agrarian university are considered. We identify four such problems: 1) different levels of students’ proficiency in a foreign language; 2) teaching materials in a foreign language for professional communication are developed on the basis of a foreign language for special purposes; 3) the selection of the subject content of teaching is not carried out taking into account the intradisciplinary specialization of students of a specific training profile; 4) a foreign language teacher is not always competent in the field of the students’ profile specialty. We discuss each problem in detail and offer possible solutions.

Abstract In recent years, in Nepal, while some languages of the nation are on the verge of extinction, some foreign languages (such as Japanese, Korean, Chinese) are emerging as new attractions among the youths and adults and are widely taught in the marketplaces through the private sector initiative. Against this backdrop, in this article, we have examined the current foreign language teaching and learning situation drawing on qualitative empirical data obtained from the institutes involved in foreign language instruction in a city in Gandaki Province of Nepal. The data were collected from a survey in forty institutes, ten individual interviews and five focus group discussions. Drawing on the data, an ecological model was adopted, which focused on dynamic interaction, co-existence, and competition among languages, and findings were discussed in line with these aspects of ecological understanding. Findings revealed that learning foreign languages has been established as a conduit towards economic gains and opportunities for employment and education, which has largely been contributory towards reshaping the ecological relationship among the foreign languages in Nepal.
