OBJECTIVITY AS A CHARACTERISTIC AND PRAGMATIC ATTITUDE OF SCIENTIFIC WRITING: LINGUISTIC AND METODOLOGICAL ASPECTS
The author talks about the language difficulties that international students face while studying in Russian universities. These difficulties are related with the scientific style of speech and writing. Students do not understand scientific texts in Russian, make errors in the written work. The author suggests that the cause for this is a perception of the rules of the scientific style as formal, not related to successful communications, and proposes to pay more attention to the semantics and pragmatics of scientific language means. Objectivity – one of the basic requirements for scientific writing – can be represented as a main pragmatic attitude. The author offers a description of several linguistic phenomena that used for making the text more objective and shows how the description of the pragmatics of these words and structures helps to explain their use.
Keywords: methods of teaching Russian as a foreign language, scientific style, pragmatics, objectivity, language means
