Socrates

The main source of professionalisms, first of all, are native Russian words that have undergone semantic rethinking. They appear from common vocabulary: for example, for electricians, a hair becomes a thin wire.

Another source of the appearance of special words is borrowing from other languages. The most common of these professionalisms are examples of words in medicine. Whatever the name, it’s all Latin, except for the duck under the bed.

There are three ways to develop professionalism:

– Lexical. This is the emergence of new special names. For example, fishermen from the verb “shkerit” (to gut fish) formed the name of the profession - “shkershik”.

– Lexico-semantic. The emergence of professionalisms by rethinking already famous word, that is, the appearance of a new meaning for it. A trumpet for a hunter means nothing more than the tail of a fox.

– Lexico-word formation. Examples of professionalisms that arose in this way are easy to identify, since they use suffixes or addition of words. For example, the chief editor - Chief Editor.

Chapter 1. Professional vocabulary.

Professional vocabulary- this is vocabulary characteristic of a given professional group, used in the speech of people united by a common profession, that is, they are not commonly used.

"Balda"(a heavy hammer for crushing stones and rocks) - in the speech of miners.

"Galley"(kitchen on the ship), cook(cook) - in the speech of sailors

Professional vocabulary ( professionalism) are expressively reinterpreted words and expressions, characteristic of many professions, taken from general circulation. Professionalisms are given in explanatory dictionaries with the mark “special”; sometimes the scope of use of a particular term is indicated: physics, medicine, mathematics, astronomer. etc.

Professionalisms- a range of conventional expressions of a profession that have limited application. Inappropriate, unmotivated use of them can reduce the artistic dignity of the text (L.I. Timofeev).

Professionalisms- words and phrases related to the production activities of people of a certain profession or field of activity.

Many professionalisms are based on a vivid figurative idea of the named object, and it is often random or arbitrary. Examples of such expressive words are paws and fir-trees (names of types of quotation marks in the professional environment of printers and proofreaders); give a goat (for pilots this means “to land the plane hard,” i.e. land it so that the plane bounces on the ground); undershot and overshot (in the speech of pilots, these words mean, respectively, undershooting and overshooting the landing sign); skinner (among kayakers this is the name for a shallow and rocky section of a river).

Professionalisms can be grouped according to the area of their use: in the speech of athletes, miners, doctors, hunters, fishermen, etc.

Professionalisms appeared by transferring the properties of an object or phenomenon to some other object based on external similarity or similarity in the sound of a word. For example, the word “hat” (a general title for several notes) is used in the speech of printers, in everyday life “hat” is a headdress; “slopes” - wheel tires (driver’s); “piggy” - boiler heat exchanger (from boilermakers)

Some linguists believe that professional vocabulary is "semi-official" compared to terminology:

Professionalism required:

For a better understanding of people of the same profession.

For convenience of explanation of the term.

To understand professionalism in the 6th grade Russian language course.

For better assimilation of information through imagery special vocabulary.

To be able to quickly remember the text due to the capacity of concepts

Professionalisms function primarily in oral speech as “semi-official” words that do not have a strictly scientific character. Such special words can be found in explanatory dictionaries, and in newspapers and magazines, and in literary works, they often perform a figurative and expressive function in these texts.

Chapter 2. Comparison of jargons, terms from professionalisms.

Some professionalisms denote scientific concepts; these are terms (from the Latin terminus - limit, boundary) that have definitions (definitions) used in the corresponding field of science and/or technology

Unlike terms, professionalisms are usually a specialized part of colloquial vocabulary, rather than literary.

There is a lot of confusion, vagueness, and disagreement in judgments about professionalism. We should probably proceed from the fact that professionalisms are precise vocabulary, normative in nature, and their share in the literary vocabulary is enormous.

The ways of education of professionalisms and, in particular, scientific and technical terms are diverse. a commonly used word in a figurative meaning can be used as a term, which is recorded in the corresponding dictionaries. This is how the computer terms mouse, virus, window, field, cell, menu, etc. appeared.

Despite the fact that in some scientific sources professionalisms and professional jargon are defined almost identically, they have their own characteristics. Unlike jargon, professionalisms are used in a literal sense, they are not figurative. Jargonisms, like professionalisms, perform the function of distinguishing between “us” and “strangers”, a sign of the speaker’s belonging to a certain social group. Professional jargon is figurative and may be incomprehensible outside the profession.

Professional jargons are more familiar, emotional and expressive compared to professionalisms. Professionalisms can sometimes be used by specialists in official speech (in reports and speeches at conferences and interviews), while the scope of use of professional jargon is limited to the oral speech of specialists in an informal setting.

Like jargon, professionalism is corporate vocabulary, it is used to recognize “our own people” (a doctor is a doctor, a physicist is a physicist, etc.). but unlike slang, professional vocabulary is stylistically neutral, it is part of literary vocabulary. Like jargon, professionalisms are perceived differently in different contexts. The same word (phrase), depending on the context, can be common, jargon, or professionalism. For example, everyone understands the word work, i.e. any business, but in criminal jargon it means a crime, while for physicists work is a measure of the action of force. Let's take another word - gold. in common usage, it is a precious material for the manufacture of many expensive things; for chemists, gold is one of the elements of Mendeleev’s periodic table with its own properties, and for economists, gold is a special commodity, the use value of which expresses and measures the value of all other goods.

Imagery, expressiveness, and emotionality distinguish professionalism from always neutral terms and phrases of an official nature.

being natural and necessary in the oral and written speech of specialists, professionalisms are inappropriate, incomprehensible or insufficiently understandable in other communication situations, because every statement is constructed taking into account its addressee.

inaccurate and inappropriate use of professionalism can lead to funny things.

The logic of life is such that everyday life is constantly updated, replenished with new things, so many professionalisms over time become commonly used words. A clear example of such processes is the massive spread of computer technology and, accordingly, computer vocabulary; In the last decade, the following words have become commonplace: monitor, display, printer, cartridge, file, cursor, scanner, modem, spam, joystick, etc.

Many professionalisms, due to the universality of science and technology (and corresponding languages), are used in different types of activities

When isolating professionalisms as part of the vocabulary of the national language, distinguishing them from commonly used words and jargon, researchers encounter considerable difficulties associated with constant development, updating of vocabulary, variety of functional styles and contexts of word usage.

professionalism in the speech of the narrator and characters is often motivated by the theme of the work or part of it.

However, Tolstoy cares about his general reader, for which he resorts to “translation”, an explanation in parentheses of words that may be incomprehensible.

The average reader, however, does not understand everything in these dialogues, and needs a real commentary on the texts. it is necessary, for example, to explain that ....etc.

What unites the speech of the characters and the narrator is the proximity of professionalisms and personifying metaphors, the same comparisons and epithets

professionalisms are often used when depicting comic contradictions and characters - in satirical and humorous works. One type of comedy is the character's false self-esteem. a hack and an ignoramus who considers himself an expert can be exposed by testing his knowledge, in particular his command of terminology and professional vocabulary.

in the novel and Ilfa and Evg. Petrov's "The Twelve Chairs" Nikifor Lapis, the creator of the new "Gavriliad", makes numerous "blunders", introducing professionalism into his template texts in order to show a thorough knowledge of the subject. The employees of the Stanok newspaper hung a newspaper clipping with a sketch of Lapis on the wall, surrounding it with a mourning border. The essay began like this: “the waves rolled over the pier and fell down like a swift jack...” Already from this phrase, snide fellow journalists doubted Lapis’ knowledge of the meaning of the word “jack.”

they ask him:

"- how do you imagine a jack? Describe in your own words.

- so... falling, in a word...

- the jack falls. notice everything! The jack is falling rapidly!..”

and Lapis is brought a volume of the Brockhaus encyclopedia with the definition of a jack - “one of the machines for lifting significant weights” (chapter xxix. “author of the Gavriliad”).

the work of many writers testifies to the fact that professional vocabulary is not on the outskirts of literature. it has a prominent place in the arsenal of stylistic means.

Professionalisms are words and phrases associated with the production activities of people of a certain profession or field of activity. Unlike terms, professionalisms are usually a specialized part of colloquial vocabulary, rather than literary.

Many professionalisms are based on a vivid figurative idea of the named object, and it is often random or arbitrary. Examples of such expressive words are paws and Christmas trees (names of types of quotation marks in the professional environment of printers and proofreaders); give a goat (for pilots this means “to land the plane hard,” i.e. land it so that the plane bounces on the ground); undershot and overshot (in the speech of pilots, these words mean, respectively, undershooting and overshooting the landing sign); skinner (among kayakers this is the name for a shallow and rocky section of a river). With their expressiveness, professionalisms are contrasted with terms as precise and mostly stylistically neutral words. Some linguists believe that professional vocabulary is "semi-official" compared to terminology: these are informal synonyms of official scientific names.

The use of professional vocabulary allows the speaker to emphasize his belonging to a certain circle of people; using these words one can identify “their own”. Thus, typographic workers are identified by such words and expressions as corral, meaning “spare typed up texts”; clogged font - “erased, worn-out font; font that has been in typed proofs for a long time”; tail - “bottom edge of the book”; header - "large heading"; marashka - “marriage in the form of a square”, etc. In the acting environment there are many specific professional expressions: to abandon or leave the text means “to quickly repeat it with a partner”; go through the text with your feet - “say the text while moving around the stage”; not giving the bridge to someone - “to complete some scene emotionally.”

The closer any area of professional or industrial activity is to the interests of society as a whole, the faster professionalisms become generally known and become common words. Thus, in particular, in the modern Russian language, many professionalisms from among specialists in the field of computer technology have become widespread. Among them there are old words with new meanings (mouse, virus, menu, hardware), and neologisms, mainly borrowings from in English(spam, monitor, file, hacker, joystick).

In everyday life, we often come across the concept of “professionalism”. In this article we will take a closer look at what this concept means. The explanation will go in two directions:

professionalism of a person (what qualities does a professional worker have);
professionalism words in the Russian language.

Employee professionalism

Professionalism is a special property of a person, which implies the systematic, effective and reliable performance of complex (professional) activities. Professional activity requires a long period of training: theoretical and practical.

If an employee is a professional, then his activities comply with objective requirements and standards accepted in society. A person’s professionalism is determined by the achievement of high production indicators, the characteristics of his motivation, the system of value orientations and aspirations, and the meaning of work for a specific individual.

Professional words in linguistics

And now about what professionalism words are. Professionalisms are words and expressions of representatives of a certain profession. These words are characteristic of any field of activity; they penetrate into general literary use.

Typically, professionalisms act as emotionally charged, colloquial equivalents of the terms: blunder - typo (in the speech of newspapermen), steering wheel - steering wheel (in the speech of drivers), pan - synchrophasotron (in the speech of physicists). Professionalism is a synonym, a substitute for the main designation.

Terms are always precise and stylistically neutral, and professional words, as a rule, are the result of metaphorical transfer; they are always expressive. A metaphorical transfer of the meanings of words from everyday vocabulary to terminological concepts is carried out based on similarity or emotional association. Professionalisms are similar to jargons, the peculiar dialects of representatives of society (jargons of sailors, hunters, students, etc.).

Words of professionalism relatively easily turn into colloquial speech literary language and in common parlance: an overlay is a mistake (in the speech of actors), a wiper is a windshield wiper of a car (in the speech of motorists).

Now you know what professionalism is in two senses. So, professionalism is a property inherent in a person and characterizing his professional activity. Professional words are words and expressions used by representatives of a certain profession.

Professionalisms

words or expressions characteristic of the speech of a particular professional group. Used to recreate the appropriate color, for speech characteristics characters.

Example:

flask (in the speech of sailors - half an hour)

thick-dog (in the speech of dog breeders - the name of the quality of a dog)

basement (in the speech of printers - an article occupying the bottom of a newspaper page)

“Professionalisms are a circle of conventional expressions of a profession that have limited application. Inappropriate, unmotivated use of them can reduce the artistic dignity of the text” (L.I. Timofeev).
