The purpose of the article is to study lexical units, with the help of which it becomes possible to build up the models of multilingualism, which are dominant among the population on the territory of Western Ukraine. Methods. Theoretical methods – categorical and structurally-functional analysis of the texts, the methods of systematization, modeling, generalization; empirical ones – the analysis of lexical units, the experiment. For the purpose of studying the models of multilingualism we used “The Methodology of studying the models of multilingualism on the territory of Western Ukraine (by the influence of Russian, English and German” (Mykhalchuk & Ivashkevych, 2022). Results. Dynamic models of multilingualism on the territory of Western Ukraine are: the Model of Balanced Ambilingualism and the Model of Unbalanced or Asymmetric Bilingualism. There are two types of Balanced Ambilingualism: (1) the Model of Ambilingual Balanced Bilingualism. It emphasizes that both language systems are developed to the highest level of perfect mastery of the language as mastering a native one; (2) the Model of Non-Ambilingual Balanced Bilingualism implies that both language systems aren’t at the same level of their development. Unbalanced or Asymmetric Bilingualism is presented by two sub-models: (1) Transitional Bilingualism; (2) Stable Dominant Multilingualism. Conclusions. Any multilingual system is not reduced to the summation of different monolingual systems. Multilingual psycholinguistic systems of the person are open ones. The bilingual’s metalinguistic abilities show a strengthening effect when the person is studying not only the second, but also the third or more languages. Accumulating such advantages as cognitive variability (mobility), metalinguistic abilities, metapragmatic and sociocultural “awareness”, multilinguals also accumulate some disadvantages: a deficit in the level of language proficiency due to interlanguage interactions; limitations in language acquisition and language efforts.

The purpose of the article is: to show psycholinguistic peculiarities of understanding by Ukrainian students the principles of nomination of linguocultural models “clothing” in the English and Ukrainian languages. The methods of the research are: theoretical ones – categorical and structurally-functional analysis of the texts, the methods of systematization, modeling, generalization; empirical methods – the analysis of lexical units, the experiment. For the purpose of studying the motivation of linguocultural units we used “The methods of studying of motivation by linguocultural units of the thematic group “clothing” in the English and Ukrainian languages” (Mykhalchuk & Ivashkevych, 2020). The results of the research. For the understanding of linguocultural units of the thematic group “clothing” in the Ukrainian language the laws of organization of usualized (a priori) and actual (a posteriori) communicative meanings, their interaction, movement, etc. are quite important. For understanding linguocultural units of the thematic group “clothing” in the English language it is sufficient superficial perception of lexical units that denote the nominations of clothing, understanding the features of their motivation, in particular, verbs, nouns and adjectives, as well as mastering the form of presentation of this or that lexical unit. Conclusions. As a result of the research psycholinguistic features of students’ understanding of linguocultural units of the thematic group “clothing” in the English and Ukrainian languages were established. Productivity of students’ understanding of linguocultural units of the thematic group “clothing” in the Ukrainian language is determined by (a) the deep meaning of lexical units; (b) semantics and spatio-temporal meanings of linguocultural units; (c) syntactics of lexical units; (d) verb and noun basis of clothing nomination; (e) various connections between explicit concepts (metaphorical and metonymic transference); (f) assertive content of the nominative unit denoting “clothing”; (g) understanding of inferences, implications, intentions of the expressionж (h) explication of usualized (a priori) communicative meanings.

Background. This article describes the Clarin-PL consortium, which represents the Polish contribution to the CLARIN ERIC European research infrastructure. The aims and tasks of both CLARIN ERIC and Clarin-PL are presented.Purpose. Presentation of the achievements of researchers from the Institute of Slavic Studies of the Polish Academy of Sciences in the field of creating and developing multilingual corpora, including tagging and parallelizing texts.Methods. The team of the Institute of Slavic Studies of the Polish Academy of Sciences adopted common assumptions for the construction of multilingual corpora of the Slavic and Baltic languages. Namely, the corpora contains selected modern texts that represent all functional styles to the greatest extent. Mutual translations are preferred.Results. The article presents a description of selected multilingual resources created by Clarin-PL and made available online via the Clarin-PL website, which a team from the Institute of Slavic Studies of the Polish Academy of Sciences (IS PAN) played a key role in creating. These resources are two expanded multilingual corpora of parallel contemporary texts: the Polish-Lithuanian Parallel Corpus 2 and the Polish-Ukrainian Parallel Corpus. Due to the fact that IS PAN played a leading role in the development of the multilingual corpora in the Clarin-PL consortium, it was decided to present an outline of corpus linguistics development in IS PAN.Discussion. The European Clarin-ERIC infrastructure is steadily developing. Scattered resources (previously created and newly emerging) are combined into a coherent whole. The Polish Consortium Clarin-PL primarily creates and develops resources and tools for the Polish language. The aim of these works is to provide the recipient with the highest possible quality of corpora compatible with constantly changing standards, allowing for the versatile use of tools.Manuscript received 02.09.2020, У статті описано групу Clarin-PL, яка є польським представництвом Європейської дослідницької інфраструктури CLARIN ERIC. Представлено завдання та цілі інфраструктури CLARIN ERIC та групи Clarin-PL. Як приклади подано окремі мовні засоби та ресурси, розроблені групою Clarin-PL. Особливу увагу присвячено тим багатомовним ресурсам, головна роль у побудові яких належить команді Інституту славістики Польської академії наук (ІС ПАН), зокрема це два розширені багатомовні корпуси сучасних текстів Polish-Lithuanian Parallel Corpus «2» i Polish-Ukrainian Parallel Corpus. Схарактеризовано провідну роль ІС ПАН у побудові групою Clarin-PL багатомовних корпусів. Окреслено нові, вже розпочаті та заплановані завдання, пов’язані з побудовою багатомовних ресурсів Clarin-PL.Матеріал надійшов 02.09.2020
