Функции языка и проблемы эквивалентности терми‑ нов в области социальной работы (в русско-чешском сопоставительном плане)
The function of language and problems of equivalence of terms in the field of social work (in Russian-Czech comparative perspective)

Summary/Abstract: The main aim of this article is to highlight the strong pragmalinguistic potential of language as a means of communication in social work and the potential problems of Czech-Russian translation of terminology in this field. Using the material of Russian-Czech terminological equivalents covering the semantic field of “social work”, the author attempts, on the one hand, to illustrate some functions of language in the field under study, on the other hand, to point out a certain interlingual asymmetry in the terminological apparatus of Russian and Czech languages. Last but not least, the author focuses on the growing tendency towards the observance of the ethical principles and correctness of expression in the studied area.
