NATIVE AND FOREIGN LANGUAGE ELEMENTS IN AVIATION TERMS OF RUSSIAN AND CHINESE LANGUAGES

Abdullina G.R., Wang Junpeng

Abstract

In the context of globalization and international cooperation in the aviation industry, the study of the formation of aviation terminology in various languages is becoming particularly relevant. The scientific article is devoted to the comparative analysis of native and foreign language elements that form aviation terminology in Russian and Chinese. The relevance of this study is due to the insufficient study of the comparative aspect of transport terminology of typologically different languages. The study focuses on identifying trends in borrowing, adaptation and creation of new terms in both language systems, as well as determining the factors influencing the choice between native and borrowed lexemes. The focus is on examples illustrating different terminology strategies and demonstrating the influence of historical, cultural and technological context on the formation of aviation vocabulary. As a result, it is proved that direct borrowing and transcription, transliteration, especially from English and French, are more actively used in the Russian language. Native elements are used primarily to create complex terms. In Chinese, preference is given to creating new terms based on native characters.

Keywords: aviation terminology, Russian language, Chinese language, borrowings, foreign language vocabulary, term formation, native lexemes, adaptation, tracing
