Abstract: The article is devoted to the study of the specifics of the implementation of such a method of word formation as reduplication. The analysis of the linguistic material indicates a fairly wide distribution of this phenomenon in modern French, Spanish, English and Russian. The authors study the features of the implementation of various types of reduplication in the studied languages, and also consider in detail the features of their functioning. The material for the study is examples of reduplicative units from the press and from open sources on the Internet. In the course of the study, methods such as the analysis of theoretical literature, the method of comparative analysis, the method of continuous sampling, as well as observation and generalization, were used. The novelty of the study lies in identifying the dynamics of the functional development of reduplications in the French, Spanish, English and Russian vocabulary in the modern period. The study showed that, although the principles of formation of different types of reduplicative units are comparable in modern French, Spanish, English and Russian, however, there are pronounced differences in the preference for the areas of use of types of reduplication in different languages under study. Of particular interest is the fact that French is characterized by the widespread use of reduplication in the formation of nicknames of famous people from the world of politics and show business, whereas in Spanish, English and Russian it is a rather rare phenomenon.

Abstract: This article is devoted to the review of the main ways of increasing the phraseological units of the language in the context of word creation. The purpose of this article is to study phraseological neologisms as one of the forms of word creation in the lexical system of English, Spanish, French and Russian languages, as well as to identify the main trends in the formation and functioning of new phraseological units. The research is based on lexicographic, descriptive, comparative methods, as well as lexico-semantic analysis and the continuous sampling method. The peculiarities of the formation of phraseological neologisms are illustrated by numerous examples in English, Spanish, French and Russian from modern media, blogs and social networks. The scientific novelty of the research lies in an integrated approach to the study of linguistic and extralinguistic factors influencing the emergence of new phraseologisms in different languages. Phraseological neologisms can either be an integral part of the vocabulary of a particular language, or have only a temporary, momentary, occasional character. The conducted research has shown that in the creation of new phraseologisms, certain samples are most often used, and the most productive ways are borrowing phraseological units, the formation of new phraseologisms by analogy and the creation of author's phraseological neologisms. Of particular interest are cases when the source of new phraseologisms are the titles of books and films, as well as the lyrics of songs.

Abstract: The aim of this research is to study the process of integration of English borrowings into the modern French language from the point of view of morphology. The rationale of the topic is caused by the fact that globalization processes all over the world popularize the English language and, as a consequence, bring a lot of English borrowings into other languages. The subject of the research is the English borrowings in terms of their integration into the modern French language, the author of the article focusing on the main means of their morphological adaptation. The research is based on the lexigographical, descriptive and comparative methods as well as methods of cognitive and morphological analysis and the continuous sampling method. The analysis of English borrowings in modern French has allowed to describe and analyse the main areas of their morphological adaptation to the recipient language. The morphological criterion (as well as lexical-semantic) is the dominating criterion for stating the fact of an English borrowing acquiring the status of the linguistic system of modern French. 

Abstract: This article is devoted to the analysis of particularities of English borrowings in the modern French language. The author of the article provides a detailed analysis of the main means of the lexical and semantic integration of anglicisms in the French language. Minova pays special attention to the role of anglicisms in enrichment of vocabulary of the modern French language and their use in active vocabulary of the French society. The rationale of the research theme is caused by the fact that recently English borrowings have been of great interest for modern researchers as one of stable trends in language transformations. The use of anglicisms in other languages has been becoming a global tendency lately. The research is based on lexicographical, descriptive, comparative methods as well as methods of cognitive and lexical and semantic analysis. The results of the research demonstrate that the lexical and semantic criterion is one of the most important indicators of how fully anglicisms are adopted by the French language and successful integration of English borrowings does not only contribute to differentiation between semantic shades and enrich the modern French language but also economize linguistic means.
