Abstract

The present paper considers situation-bound characteristics of the literary medical discourse lexical inventory in the English language. The study is based on the lexical analysis of the medical words and word combinations presented in the American television series “House M.D.” (production of Heel and Toe Films, Shore Z Productions, Bad Hat Harry Productions, NBC Universal Television Studio, Universal Media Studios, Universal Television), “Chicago Med” (production of Wolf Films Universal Television), and the novel “The Final Diagnosis” written by the American author A. Hailey. The rationale for the problem of the research lies in insufficient information on oral communication in specialized communicative spheres of various levels, in particular in oral medical discourse, especially within the classification of specialized discourse speech genres against the background of lexical inventory typologisation. Therefore, the work examines situation-bound characteristics of the English medical vocabulary. Our hypothesis is stated as follows: communicative conditions determine the lexical features of words and expressions used within the specialized discourse.

专业语篇中的词汇清单类型学

本文研究了英语文学医学语篇词汇清单的情境约束特征。这项研究是基于对美国电视剧《豪斯医生》(由Heel and Toe Films、Shore Z Productions、Bad Hat Harry Productions、NBC环球电视工作室、环球媒体工作室、环球电视制作)、《芝加哥医生》(由Wolf Films环球电视制作)和美国作家A. Hailey撰写的小说《最终诊断》中出现的医学词汇和单词组合的词汇分析。研究问题的根本原因在于，在各个层次的专业交际领域，特别是在口腔医学语篇中，关于口头交际的信息不足，特别是在词汇清单类型学背景下对专业语篇言语类型的分类。因此，本研究考察了英语医学词汇的情境约束特征。我们的假设是:交际条件决定了专业语篇中使用的词语的词汇特征。
