Shilina A. Lingual and gender interpretation of lexical and grammatical potential of modern Russian scientific style

The paper discusses dynamics of formation of gender studies (GS) terminology system. The following mechanisms of terminology development are defined: inter-lingual, inter-systems borrowings and specialization of meaning. Text terms in GS can be divided in two main groups: basic terms borrowed from Western GS and terms borrowed from other sciences. Specialization of meaning of SG terms can be seen in widening of the word meaning, narrowing of the word meaning and creating new terms combinations of words. There are several ways that narrowing of the word meaning works: specialization of meaning using definition, specialization of meaning with simultaneous context support, specialization of meaning using a different model of word formation, specialization of meaning using a synonym, specialization of meaning using formation of complex terms or combinations of terms.
