The Experience of Creating a Glossary of Modern Youth Slang Based on Anglicisms
The aim of the article is to create a glossary of modern youth slang based on anglicisms by questioning students studying such disciplines as “Russian language and culture of speech” and “Foreign language”. In the course of the study, the responses of 1st and 2nd year students of Moscow Aviation Institute (NRU) were collected, which allowed to compile a glossary of youth slang. A survey of about 150 students was conducted, each of which suggested 10 slang words. In the process, a hypothesis was put forward that live student speech reflects the priorities and values of youth. The following methods were used: comparison, observation, description, analysis, synthesis, questioning. The study showed the need for effective communication in the native and foreign languages without excessive use of anglicisms.
