Contemporary linguistics and discoursology regard
means of author’s position expression to be an
important part of a science. However, it should be
stated that this aspect “author’s position expression” in
scientific discourse has not been described in details.
This article researches different lexical means of
author’s position expression, actualized in different
types of discourse: scientific science (based on
geological texts). According to quantitative and
qualitative data analysis of English and Russian texts,
means of author’s position expression depend on
directly on functional characteristics of the discourse
itself and proper usage of them indicates and the
cultural background of the author. Comparing English
and Russian texts, the following was revealed: Russian
authors pertain to (a) be reserve in expressing his/her
own opinion; (b) employ impersonal constructions
abundantly; (c) resort to the minimum use of those
words expressing his/her personal opinion; (d)
overload other author’s citations; and (e) use such
follow-up lexical means that encourage the reader to
understand the author’s conceptions or notions. The
English corpus analysis showed that the authors,
comparable to the Russian ones, are more explicit in
expressing one’s opinions through pronouns, such as
“I” and “we». In this case, the author’s position
expression is less straightforward and more “shaded”.
Due to the well-defined structure of English scientific
texts the authors exclude the possible duplication of
one’s opinions by expressing the author’s position on
the issue discussed in the article both in the explicit
and implicit ways

The article is fulfilled in the frames of modern linguistic studies where the cognitive aspects of language activities are actively studied, concept researches are conducted and is devoted to the study of color words in the design of color picture of the world of different language cultures and their role and function in formation of special language terminology. The authors analyze compound terms and their definitions of a new emerging trend of the economy – green economy, borrowed from the materials of UN organizations and Institute of Green Economy and reveal that the color word green participates in terminology formation due to metaphoric use, as an indirect nomination that gives way to sense increment. Color words bear assessment charge that is realized in terms formation through complex attributive combinations. The ambivalence of the semantics of color is demonstrated through opposite meanings and this allows conclusion that color words are connected with emotional and volitional state of a person, society and that they are perceived in a figurative, non-color, but psychological, emotional meaning and due to this ability they are able to form mental formation in professional field
The article is concerned with proxemic communication connected with changing the relative positioning of communicants when interacting, in fictional prose of K.D. Vorobyov. This essential part of interaction is implied with the individual author’s approach to verbal representation of corresponding features and lexis’s choice preferences, its quantitative and qualitative characteristics in the writer’s fictional prose. By analogy with the term paracinema, the term paraproxema is also used for defining these kinds of language phenomena. Paraproxemas were analyzed with reference to semantic, stylistic and morphological aspects. There are two thematic groups of terms with the reference to retract and extend of the relative positioning of communicants being defined in the article. The distribution is based on semantics of verbs and function words. Changing the relative positioning of communicants changes the social zone and reports different information as exemplified with three stories of K.D. Vorobyov. The mutual influence of paracinemas and paraproxemas creates the integrated image of communicants, which gestures, facial expressions, and movements not only accompany but also complete speech
