Special vocabulary of the military sphere in today's communicative space

Abstract

The article analyzes lexical units of a terminological and non-thermological nature associated with the military sphere and actively used in the modern communicative space in connection with Russia's special military operation. The author focuses on the typological composition and thematic classification of these units, some features of their formation and functioning are considered. It is shown that not only terms are in demand, but also oral professional units (professionalism and professional jargon). When analyzing non-verbal designations of a phraseological nature, a clear differentiation of units characterizing the methods of military operations of the Russian armed forces and the Armed Forces of Ukraine was found; from other thematic groups, the names of technical means of reconnaissance, deterrence and destruction of the enemy, as well as the names of spatial objects associated with military operations, are meaningfully presented.
