| Summary: | The paper deals with the reconstruction of speech portrait which is defined as a part of verbal
personality, verbalized in the communication process. The purpose of our research is to analyze linguistic features
of the cadet’s speech portrait, which are implemented at the phonetic level. The subject of the research is the verbal
picture of the cadets of a military institute. The object is its phonetic aspect. The research material is represented
with dictaphone recordings of educational discourse (240 hours long). The recordings were made at the lessons of
different academics for the first, the second and the third-year cadets (disciplines – Russian Language and Culture
of Speech, Military History, Law). 512 cadets took part in the research. The main method is the method of scientific
description with the use of the following techniques: observation, continuous sampling, classification, systemization,
interpretation and statistical data processing.
The cadets’ speech portrait is balanced enough, but it requires certain correction as for accentological and
articulatory standards. The cadets made about 70 mistakes, which are typical for the young people’s speech. When
modeling the cadets’ speech portrait, the special attention should be given to speech delivery. Its development is
one of the factors for successful communication in the military professional sphere.
The research results can be the foundation for reconsideration of the content of educational standards in
military specialties. The given phonetic aspect of the young people’s speech portrait enlarges existing in linguodidactics
concepts about the analyzed phenomenon and contributes to the development of linguodidactics and sociolinguistics.
The phonetic features of the cadets’ speech portrait are shared by all the young people. |
