Results of the “Current Issues in Applied Linguistics” Section

On April 16, 2026, a session of the “Current Issues in Applied Linguistics” section was held as part of the XVI International Forum of Young Scientists “Modern Scientific Trends: From Applied Research to Innovation” (moderated by Valentina V. Gersonskaya, Senior Lecturer in the Department of Foreign Languages).

Twenty-eight papers were presented, reflecting the results of applied research on scientific, technical, and journalistic texts, political discourse, classical and modern works of Russian and English literature, video blogs, and computer games.

More than half of the papers were devoted to the lingua-stylistic features of specialized texts and the specifics of their transmission in written translation. A growing interest was also noted in the study of the language of Fedor Dostoevsky and Arthur Conan Doyle, idiolect in political discourse, and the various forms of language existence.

The following papers by students in the 6B02301 “Translation Studies” program were awarded diplomas:

First-degree diploma – M.A. Dolgov for his research paper on “Tok Pisin as an Example of an English Pidgin in the Melanesian Region: Linguistic Features and Social Status.”
