THE FORMATION PECULIARITIES OF THE BRITISH HIGHER EDUCATION TERMINOLOGICAL UNITS WITH THE CULTURAL COMPONENT OF MEANING
The given article reports on a study of the formation specificity of the British higher education terminological units with the cultural components of meaning. The paper draws on the main types of formation of the terminological units considered. The author defines the most effective type of term formation on the basis of the British higher education terminology. The role of sematic term formation within the concept of the cultural component of the term meaning is considered. The author mentions overwhelming terminological units with the cultural component of meaning formed as the result of the syntactic way of term formation. However, special focus is given to the semantic formation peculiarities of the terminological units with the cultural component of meaning, because the process of the cultural component emergence and development is illustrated in the structure of the analysed units meaning. The author examines the examples of the British higher education terminological units with the cultural component of meaning formed through terminologization of a commonly-used meaning, extension of meaning, metaphoric or metonymic transfer, borrowing from other terminologies.
