“…Today, borrowing implies an element of a foreign language (word, morpheme, syntactic construction, etc. ), transferred from one language to another [8]. Borrowing, usually, is an appeal to the lexical component of other languages to name new concepts in the TL, the subsequent differentiation of existing ones and the definition of previously unknown objects.…”

The paper explores economic texts from the translation process point of view. The study was carried out on the textual level, within the terminology in particular. The author holds the view that the formation of economic terminology is based on cognitive aspects of the language. In accordance with this view economic terms were evaluated in respect to the strategies of their borrowing into the language. Also classification of English economic terms is given. The results show that the ways of translating economic terminology are included both in the terminological base of the economic field of knowledge, and belong to other terminologies, and even represent non-terminological systems. The author conclude that complex untranslated unambiguous terms occur with the same frequency as simple ones. Thus, adequate translation of economic texts from English into Russian requires knowledge not only of the terminological systems but also of the cognitive apparatus of economic science.

Concrete structure is a compulsory course in Civil Engineering. The problem that occurs is that students do not understand the basics of structural analysis. A media that connects fundamental structural analysis with concrete structures have not yet been developed. The purpose of this research is to develop interactive IT-based learning media in this subject. This research is development research. The data collection was conducted with testing and questionnaires that were then analyzed by using quantitative descriptive techniques. The results of this study are as follows:(1) the results of student responses get an average score of 45.1 and are in the very good category;(2) the student learning outcomes test has an average value of 74.84; (3) the concrete structure of learning media that needs to be improved is the appearance of the color composition to make it more attractive. CONCLUSIONS ConclusionsBased on the results of research and discussion, it can be concluded as follows.-The results of student responses to the concrete structure learning media got a total score of 1489, with an average of 45.1, which falls in the very good category. -Student learning outcomes test after the application of concrete structure learning media had an average score of 74.84, a minimum score of 60, and a maximum value of 90. -In terms of feasibility, the concrete structure learning media is feasible to use, and what needs to be improved is the appearance of the color composition to make it more attractive. SuggestionsBased on the conclusions above, several things can be suggested, as follows:-Students like learning with interesting media, so they feel happy in learning, for that each subject needs to be have interesting media and make it easier for students to learn. -The institution should provide training in making media, to improve the quality of learning media for each lecturer. -Students should make good use of the advances in technology and media that have been provided with positive things, such as accessing learning materials on the web, e-learning, journals, and e-books, and so on. -Future research should be conducted with more in-depth research on concrete structure learning media in other ranges of material and with a more attractive appearance.

“…While Andersen (2014) argues for an enhancement of studies of lexical borrowing to include discourse markers, this study focuses on the more 'classical' lexicological concerns. However, it seeks to foster investigations into the pragmatics of lexical borrowing, following on from studies such as Andersen's (2017) study of the English loan jobb in Norwegian and from Onysko and Winter-Froemel's (2011) analysis of anglicisms in German. It takes up the challenge to pursue "an empirical, cross-linguistic approach" in order to "explore the range of discourse functions and the attitudinal significance attributable to individual forms in the SL as well as the RL" (Andersen, 2014: 18).…”
