This study is devoted to the trend of changes in the communicative norms of diplomatic discourse. Currently, due to the influence of several extralinguistic factors on diplomatic communication, there is a mixing of the institutional discursive type, which includes diplomatic discourse, with the personal discursive type characteristic of everyday communication. In modern diplomatic discourse, there is an obvious tendency to deviate from the conventional norms of diplomatic communication and deregulate it. With all the social significance and linguistic value of such a process, diplomatic discourse remains poorly understood. The novelty of the study is associated with the relevance of the topic as it examines examples of diplomatic communication that have become typical in the last 6-7 years, which allows analyzing the trend that has formed today.

The article analyzes graphic occasionalisms created through the graphic instruments of language play. The material for the study includes the new formations taken from the texts of the modern Russian-language publicistic discourse. The studied material shows that capitalization as one of the techniques of graphic language play is widely represented in the texts of mass media. The novelty of the study lies in the fact that, unlike other works, it examines modern graphic occasionalisms formed through the combination of capitalization and other methods of graphic play: polycodification, reduplication, holophrasis, and the techniques associated with the division of the usual word in different ways. The practical material allows for the analysis of the linguistic situation of the present period of time.

The orientation dependence of the transient high-temperature creep rate of NaCl and KCl single crystals under nonuniform stresses is experimentally studied. The anisotropy of high-temperature bending creep of single crystals is ascertained by analyzing the distribution of bending stresses, the number of possible dislocations providing deformation, the reduced shear stresses causing sliding of dislocations, and the dislocation structure of single crystals after creep. It is shown that hindered dislocation sliding in the easy sliding system activates a new slip system at a certain temperature.

The present article is devoted to the problem of teaching reading and listening in Russian as a foreign language (A1-B1) classes using digital technology.
