The introduction of bilingual programs for future bureaucrats turned out to be a great challenge. In Russia this is one of the "classic" areas, in which the spirit of conservatism and collectivism prevails. In this area, the idea of teaching in English may be perceived with hatred: English can invade the closed area communication of offi cials, to make the excessive diversity of their contacts and violate patriotism and national identity. We used a cognitive map approach. It allows us to create diff erent kinds of cognitive maps and teaching materials for university students who need to learn in one course the terminology in both languages. The results show that the study of the subject/ course in English is not harmful to the development of professional Russian language. It was confi rmed by the individual discussion in Russian. At the same time, the skills of reading articles in English were signifi cantly improved. Revista Tempos e Espaços em Educação, São Cristóvão, Sergipe, Brasil, v. 9, n. 20, p. 81-88, set./dez. 2016.

En Rusia, esta es una de las áreas "clásicos", donde prevalece el espíritu de conservadurismo y el colectivismo. En esta área, la idea de la enseñanza en Inglés se puede ver con el odio: Inglés puede romperse en los responsables de comunicación cerrados hacer excesiva diversidad de sus contactos y violan el patriotismo y la identidad nacional. Utilizamos un enfoque mapa cognitivo. Que nos permite crear diferentes tipos de mapas y materiales educativos para los estudiantes universitarios que necesitan aprender en un curso de la terminología en ambos idiomas. Los resultados muestran que el estudio del curso / Inglés sujeto no es perjudicial para el desarrollo de la lengua rusa profesional, siendo confirmados por las discusiones individuales en Rusia. Al mismo tiempo, los artículos en las habilidades de lectura en inglés mejoraron significativamente.

“…In the Slavic languages, unlike both English and Hebrew, a request in the form of a rhetorical question (e. g., 'Can you pass the butter?') can be interpreted as a genuine question that could be answered (Wierzbicka 1985). Therefore, Russianspeaking immigrants can interpret a polite Hebrew complaint as a genuine, and thus to them intrusive, question.…”

“…Wierzbicka (1985) shows that, as compared to English, Polish and other Slavic languages (including Russian) use more direct strategies for interrogative speech acts, reaching politeness by means of diminutives. In addition, she describes a value of cordiality (emphasizing close relations between people) prominent in Slavic cultures.…”

“…fordi det går imod den universelle høflighedsstrategi (Searle 1975(Searle , 1979Brown & Levinson 1987), altså anvendelse af indirekte opfordringer. Sagt på en anden måde er der noget, der tyder på, at nogle sprog, som fx dansk, russisk og polsk (Wierzbicka 1985(Wierzbicka , 1988Durst-Andersen 1995), bruger direkte høflighedsstrategier i de kontekster, hvor engelsk mere eller mindre systematisk anvender indirekte strategier. Det forekommer således nødvendigt at finde en model for opfordringer, som ville kunne beskrive de strukturelle forskelle imellem sprog uden at tage udgangspunkt i et bestemt sprog og en bestemt type høflighedsstrategi.…”

Med henvisninger til Wierzbicka (1985), Hamblin (1987) og Durst-Andersen (1995) prøver jeg at modbevise den universalistiske tilgang til sproghandlinger på den ene side og understøtte mine teoretiske modargumenter med praktiske eksempler fra mit ph.d.-projekt på den anden side.…”
