The Characteristics of Polish, English and Russian Medical Sociolects and Professiolects on the Basis of the Questionnaire Analysis Results

Summary/Abstract: This paper discusses the Polish, Russian and English-speaking cardiologists and cardiac surgeons’ professiolects and sociolects. 271 questionnaires filled in by cardiologists and cardiac surgeons from Poland, Russia, Australia, the United States of America and Great Britain from July 2011 till February 2012 were analysed in the study. Nine characteristics of the professiolects and the sociolects were extracted from the morphological analysis, the analysis of the vocabulary dependant on its semantic field as well as the derivation analysis of the vocabulary. These features show the difference between professiolects and sociolects, and they characterise every idiom. Some pragmatic aspects of sociolects and professiolects are also discussed in the article.
