• The main goal of research - to substantiate the
importance of neologisms as the realities of a
foreign language and try to find the most
effective way of translating.

9. Neologisms and methods of translation

• Concretization
1. The settlement may be considered to be of primary
importance to the industries concerned.
Можно считать, что это решение
(урегулирование) имеет решающее значение
для тех отраслей промышленности, которых
оно касается.

10. Neologisms and methods of translation

• Generalization
1. The awful performance of state-owned enterprises and the
growing potential of a financial disaster are surely the
Achilles" heel of what is called China’s “primary stage of
socialism".
Ужасное состояние государственных предприятий во
время финансовой катастрофы в Китае называлась
“начальной стадии социализма” .

11. Neologisms and methods of translation

•Modulation or semantic development
1. Over 60,000 drivers were on strike yesterday. Men at York and
Portsmouth joined the strike, while at Edinburgh there was a return
to work.
Вчера забастовало более 60 тыс. водителей машин. Рабочие в
Йорке и Портсмуте присоединились к забастовщикам, в то
время как в Эдинбурге рабочие вновь приступили к работе
(вернулись на работу).

12. Neologisms and methods of translation

• Antonymic translation
1.Its coming, whatever governments do; but they can
make it better or worse.
Это грядет, что бы правительства не
предпринимали, но они могут повернуть ситуацию в
лучшую или в худшую сторону.

13. Conclusion

Translation of neologisms relies on the presupposition that
morphological processes can be transferred from one language to
another. So for a constructed neologism in one language.
Conclusions withdrawn in terms of present work along with the
presented material may be used for future lexicological research in
creating English- Russian, Russian- English dictionaries. I must say,
that we cannot translate new words into other languages in direct way;
we should take into consideration all peculiar features of diversity of
languages. It is not easy to translate neologisms from one language to
other one. We should think carefully about the equivalents of one and
the word. Besides the material presented in research paper may also
serve as a tool or reference for students who learn foreign languages,
who are going to be interpreters or who are interested in English
language for cultural purposes.
