Rudenko T. I.

The aim of the study is to identify the linguistic and stylistic features of the German and Russian educational discourses based on the names of educational documents. The scientific novelty lies in the fact that the linguistic and stylistic features of the educational discourse are first time investigated by a comparative analysis of the nominations of various types of documents issued after graduation from educational organizations in Germany and Russia. The results showed that the linguistic and stylistic features of the mentioned units are manifested in the phenomena of synonymy, the presence of territorial duplets, and non-equivalent vocabulary.

Keywords:educational discourse; document on education; synonym; territorial doublet; non-equivalent vocabulary.
