The ascertaining research was used as an empirical method. the results of the research. We proved, that in the process of oral trans-lation a real process of thought generation, the path from meaning to finding meaning (and vice versa – from meaning to meaning) was much more difficult. It is not limited to certain structural models, because in translation, as well as in the process of intercultural communication, the most difficult thing can be the definition of not even individual signs, realities, but the peculiarities of their re-lationships in the minds of representatives of different cultures, in which there is a functional coincidence of the main and secondary characteristics, figures and backgrounds, which, in turn, facilitate the development of intercultural compe-tence.conclusions. The most effective implementation of the intermediary role of the translator can only be perceived by us as a result of his/her consistent appeal to culture specific and universal aspects of the phenomena having been studied, which is achieved by consistent movement in the space of comparative cultures in the direction of emic – etic – emic. By this way it is also the process of the development of intercultural competence of students – future translators. Cogni-tive structures, having been formed in the course of such a reflexive movement, must be combined in cognitive models with language signs that correspond to the world image. The dominant role in the process of forming the intercultural competence of students – future translators display to the greatest extent by the thinking scheme of representatives of a certain linguistic and cultural com-munity. These processes testify to the considerable role of the basic components of translation activity: psychological and linguistic elements, verbal methods of performing oral translation.
The construction and expression of identity in the context of globalization and digitalisation is a problematic task in the modern world, where the processes of identity self-creation allow oneself ...to choose from many different options. The problem of this work is the communication of identity of tattooed people through tattoos of symbols of different cultures. The aim of the work is to examine the aspects of the identity communication of tattooed persons. Semi-structured interview and qualitative analysis methods are used to implement the aim and objectives of the work.
The obtained results reveal that the processes of identity construction and expression use the methods of creation and interpretation of semantic connections, reflexive individualization, multi-layered coding of symbols, incorporating elements of different cultures into the identity project, which include symbolic, philosophical, spiritual, aesthetic and mythological assimilation prisms. The intervention of the Other in projecting personal identity becomes the identity insertion, and tactile senses, sight and hearing help to assimilate different cultures through different existing life articulations. In the context of social interaction, virtual identity is transferred into material forms of expression of identity and, with the help of the body as a media, extends identity beyond technology and deletes boundaries between it.
The aim of our research is to show psychological functions of socio-cultural competence; to present cultural context, which influences the development of socio-cultural competence of students. ...Methods of the research. The following theoretical methods of the research were used to solve the tasks formulated in the article: a categorical method, structural and functional methods, the methods of the analysis, systematization, modeling, generalization. The experimental method was the method of organizing empirical research. The results of the research. We proposed socio-cultural approach in the process of education at high school at the English lessons. We proved that the main function of socio-cultural competence is a cultural function, which has the aim to create cross-cultural competence of the student almost at the same level as a native speaker. The main cultural function is a mean of building up a cultural-historical theme, and the native culture is not ignored. So, there is a parallel study of the cultural manifestations of native people and the people whose language is being studied. It was proved that the ways of developing of sociocultural competence to learning a foreign language has the aim to integrate language education interdisciplinary with the purpose to enrich bilingual competence of the student in order to fulfill the role of a subject of multi-cultural dialogues and to gain a role of a cultural mediator in the process of intercultural communication. Conclusions. We’ve shown, that from the standpoint of Sociocultural Approach, socio-cultural competence is understood by us as the functionally determined communicative interaction of people who are the representatives of different cultural communities and belong to different geopolitical, continental, religious, regional, national, ethnic groups, as well as social subcultures. It was shown, that partners of communication, of course, can differ from each other in value-oriented worldview, lifestyle, models of speech and non-verbal process of communication. For productive multi-cultural communication, a personality with a high level of socio-cultural competence must be a mediator of cultures, by which we understand a student who has knowledge about the peculiarities of different cultures and the peculiarities of their interaction. Socio-cultural competence allows a person to go beyond the background of his/her native culture and acquire the qualities of a mediator of cultures, without losing his/her personal cultural identity.
