The purpose of the paper is to identify linguistic abilities to master foreign languages in students-translators. This research was conducted based on the methods and methodology of observation, comparison, analysis, functional and descriptive methods. In order to solve this problem, the achievements of linguistics, sociolinguistics, psychology, psycholinguistics, methods of teaching foreign languages were analyzed, as the study of the phenomenon of linguistics ability is based on them. Linguistic ability includes some specific abilities such as foreign language ability, language guessing, language intuition and communication skills. The result is the formation of a linguistic personality, in particular, the bilingual personality of the translator in a dialogue that has the ability and skills to use the language in all its manifestations in different situations of intercultural communication; the ability to understand and assimilate someone else's way of life and behavior in order to break ingrained stereotypes; skills to expand the individual picture of the world by involving in the "language picture of the world" speakers of the studied language. Value/originality. The development of language abilities is possible on the basis of individualization, differentiation of the learning process and increasing motivation for learning a language. It is necessary to clarify that the presence of communication skills, linguistic intuition and ability to languages is absolutely not enough for a full-fledged foreign language communication, and even more so for characterizing a secondary linguistic personality, in fact, its development is the leading goal of teaching a foreign language for translation students. Linguistic giftedness and ability for languages are only a prerequisite for the formation of intercultural competence and the development of a secondary linguistic personality.

This chapter presents an empirical study of the intercultural communicative competence of students of Kazakhstani universities. The study results indicate that students should develop their cultural knowledge, intercultural receptivity, communication strategies, intercultural awareness etc. A number of issues related to the formation of intercultural competence in the process of teaching foreign-language communication, taking into account the cultural and mental differences of the native speakers, which is a necessary condition for a successful dialogue of cultures are also discussed. The concept of communicative competence in teaching foreign languages stipulates development of students' knowledge, skills and abilities that enable them to join the ethno-cultural values of the country of the studied language and use the foreign language in situations of intercultural understanding and cognition in practice. Conjunction of such knowledge, skills and abilities constitutes communicative competence. Based on the results of the research, proposals are made for the curriculum and teaching of intercultural communication and methods of developing intercultural communicative competence of students of Kazakhstan universities in a networked environment.


The article deals with the use of foreign language distance learning for first-year foreign students of economic specialties. The implementation of distance learning is one of the ways to modernize the education in Ukraine in the context of globalization and the intensive development of information technologies. Distance technologies are now widely used in many fields of education, especially when teaching a foreign language to inophones. Creating an effective learning system, based on information technology, is an urgent task at all levels of education. One of the systems focused on the professional development of future specialists is the system of teaching students a foreign language using information technology. The possibilities of organizing the educational process are not limited to traditional and distance learning. There is a significant educational sector in which distance learning cannot be fully applied, but individual elements of e-learning can be used (in particular, distance learning technologies). It is referred to full-time and part-time (1-2 courses) forms of higher education. The mixed learning has become a special role as a more perfect model of the educational process organization, which takes the advantage of distance learning and compensates for these disadvantages. To improve the organization of the educational process for the language training of foreign students, we consider appropriate to use the materials of distance courses in the models of mixed learning. The options for integrating distance learning into the traditional system of language training for foreigners in the mixed learning models have been analyzed. When integrating the model into a traditional educational process at this stage of foreigners' training, it is suggested to use the distance course developed by us with the prevailing classroom component, because the degree of students' independent work in learning the teaching material of the discipline in the first year is not high. The structure and content of the distance course «Foreign Language» (educational-professional sphere of communication connection), designed on the Moodle platform, are considered in the article. The importance of using distance technologies in the process of organizing language training for foreign students is noted. It contributes to the formation of professional competence of future specialists in the field of economics.

This article purpose is to concern the importance of applying a communicative approach to learning a foreign language by future interpreters and translators. The communicative approach creates situations that are as close as possible to the peculiarities of the real process of communication.  Therefore, the object of this study can be considered the didactic process of communicative competence formation of future interpreters and translators. This approach is aimed at paying more attention to the functions of language, lexical and grammatical units, which contributes to the development of communicatively oriented mastery of educational material by future interpreters and translators. The author has established the fact that thanks to a communicative approach, future interpreters and translators will be able to master foreign language communicative competence, which is necessary for orientation in the cultural aspect of a foreign language. There was used the methodology of interdisciplinary research such as analysis of scientific sources and educational materials. It confirmed that a foreign language communicative competence includes a system of knowledge and skills necessary for the effective use for a foreign language in professional and intercultural spheres. It is especially important for interpreters and translators, who must always know the language situation and know the cultural specifics of a foreign nation. Therefore, the result of this study can be considered as the following. The most effective way to achieve this goal is audiovisual reproduction of the linguistic and cultural situation, because standards of foreign language samples can come to our mind and can stay in long-term memory only with audio and visual perception. In addition, image and visual support is important not only for the semantic understanding of individual words or expressions, but also for the correct transmission of all content. Conclusion: the audiovisual method of learning a foreign language is one of the most effective for the foreign language communicative competence formation for future interpreters and translators.

The rapid forced transition to distance learning in the spring of 2020 served as an impetus for the development and introduction of new forms of education. Such a massive introduction of distance learning quickly revealed the advantages of traditional full-time education. The first meetings with students after the experimentally remote semester showed a noticeable loss of students of some of the learning skills, for example necessary for working in a team. In addition, it is impossible to teach many technical disciplines qualitatively to a student without his presence in the classroom. In the course of individual remote work with students (which entailed increased time costs), it became clear to teachers which points in the course should be paid more attention to, what to change in the presentation of educational material. Thanks to technological progress, new ways of conducting classes have appeared in a remote form. Such classes can complement traditional full-time education
