摘要

这篇文章探讨了现代英语解剖学术语的惯用特征。作者强调,理解和正确使用习语是深入了解外语的一个指标,也是准备国际英语考试的一个重要因素,特别是为了识别隐含含义(C1–高级,C2–熟练程度)。人们注意到,掌握习语是其他语言使用者面临的最困难的挑战之一,因此在学生的外语培训中需要格外注意。通过对词典学来源(《牛津习语词典》、《3800个生动习语词典》和《麦格劳-希尔美国习语和短语动词词典》)的分析和系统化,发现解剖学术语具有显著的习语潜力,并广泛反映在现代英语的比喻语言中。该研究基于52个解剖学术语揭示了628个习语,其中“头”、“手”、“眼”、“心”和“脚”四个词的习语潜力最大,分别构成75个、70个、53个、46个和43个习语的核心。已开发的解剖学习语语料库已被组织起来,以便在医科大学的教育过程中有意义且易于使用。在ESP培训过程中熟悉英语解剖学习语有助于培养学生学习外语的兴趣和动机,拓宽他们的视野,并确保深入理解英语比喻语言的机制,这是成功通过国际能力测试和在外语环境中进行交流的关键。

IDIOMATIC POTENTIAL OF ANATOMICAL TERMINOLOGY AND ITS ROLE IN DEVELOPING ENGLISH LANGUAGE PROFICIENCY
The article examines the idiomatic features of anatomical terminology in modern English. The authors emphasize that understanding and correct use of idiomatic expressions is an indicator of in-depth knowledge of a foreign language and an important element in preparing for international English language exams, in particular, with the aim of recognizing implicit meanings (C1 – Advanced, C2 – Proficiency levels). It has been noted that mastering idiomatic expressions constitute one of the most difficult challenges for speakers of other languages, therefore it requires additional attention during the foreign language training of students. Based on the analysis and systematization of lexicographic sources (The Oxford Dictionary of Idioms, A Dictionary of 3800 Picturesque Idiomatic Expressions, and McGraw-Hill's Dictionary of American Idioms and Phrasal Verbs), it has been shown that anatomical terminology has significant idiomatic potential and is widely reflected in the figurative language of modern English. The study has revealed 628 idioms based on 52 anatomical terms, among which the lexemes “head”, “hand”, “eye”, “heart” and “foot” have the most productive idiomatic potential, forming the core of 75, 70, 53, 46 and 43 idioms respectively. The developed corpus of anatomical idioms has been organized for meaningful and accessible use in the educational process at a medical university. Familiarizing students with English anatomical idioms in the course of ESP training contributes to the development of student's interest and motivation in learning a foreign language, broadening their outlook, and ensuring an in-depth understanding of the mechanisms of English figurative language, which is the key to successfully passing international proficiency tests and communicating in a foreign language environment.
