THE FORMATION OF VARIOUS FORMS OF APOLOGY AS A COMPLEX PHENOMENON IN THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE
The article describes the formation of various forms of apology as a complex phenomenon in the English language, the phenomenon of apology from the perspective of communicative and sociolinguistics, the types and means of expressing an apology in English depending on the place in the dialogical unity. Language means of expression are determined by the type of apology. An apology can be direct or indirect, regardless of the type of apology. We considered the results of the study as a fragmentary part of a comprehensive study of the means of expressing an apology in the English language. This largely determines the scope of the practical application of research work, the materials of which can be used in the course of modern English, in special courses on the problems of the phenomenon of apology from the perspective of communicative and sociolinguistics.
