Jargon - is an essential part of any language.But if you talk about what are the most varied and rich, this is definitely Russian.Our language and so infinitely rich and varied, but the national vernacular - is a completely separate issue.
How to confuse a foreigner
So, we should start with a definition.Jargon - a limited group of words that are not part of the literary or the official language.It is a certain set of phrases and expressions, which are used by people belonging to a certain social or professional groups.By the way, the lingo - it is also a clever move by which it is possible to confuse not only foreigners but also the ordinary Russian person who simply refers to a different segment of the population.As an example we can take, for example, the same prison slang.Not the best option for the comparison, but not every normal person will be able to capture the essence of what will be said a former jailer "in his."
Specificity existence
For many people, the word "jargon" there are unpleasant associations.With the same prison, for example.However, this stereotype.In fact lexicon of jargon found everywhere and in any team.This Slang schoolchildren, students, soldiers, musicians, footballers, chefs, choreographers, journalists, engineers, builders, etc.This is not surprising, since one or the other kind of activity has a certain effect on the conversational style.How does this happen?Very simple.Some concepts are simplified, reduced, there are certain associations with them.As a result, there is a new word.
Speaking scientific language, the jargon lexicon arises from the need for verbal expression, especially with regard to anything (to life, to occupation, etc.).Jargon can be ironic, dismissive or even contemptuous.He also sometimes acts as a means of linguistic isolation.A certain linguistic conspiracy.That's just for this type of jargon and refers notorious anti-social elements.
specific vocabulary and its use
But it is worth noting the attention an interesting fact.Many believe that the jargon - is speech uneducated people.However, such language is often used in works of art.This is the original course.Thus, the author shows the reality, trying to attract the reader's interest.Most often, such techniques are found in detective and historical novels.
By the way, publicists and journalists, too, are often used in their works social jargons.It's nice to dilute the dry text touches the reader and makes the overall journalistic product more interesting.In addition, these articles are easier to digest, as the jargon attracts attention.Of course, in the official press releases of such words can not be found, and editorial materials it will also be a rarity, but in general, a similar technique is considered common, effective and popular.
Jargon as a means to reach understanding
on youth slang today talking overwhelming number of girls and boys.Often there are words borrowed from English.And recently possible to observe the appearance of new phrases and expressions."SELF", "Like", "repost", "shovel", "Night and day", "bluff" - this is just a minimum list of similar words.The most interesting is that such expressions are often perceived easier and understood faster than literary phrase.But this is understandable, because we live in the 21st century, during the reign of modern technology.
The main thing that was not too Slang cultureless because our beautiful and rich Russian, unfortunately, becomes dirty quickly, especially lately.Jargon lexicon, of course, always existed and will continue to flourish, but it must comply with the measure.
Professional imprint
Finally I would like to raise attention to this topic, as the jargon.This is perhaps the most popular type of slang.Professionalism (this is also called as the jargon) are comparable with the terms used.However, expressed scientifically - it is tedious.Because certain specialists simplify everything, and as a result of it can be confusing to outsiders, "unenlightened" personalities.It is the specificity of the conventions and to limit distribution of certain expressions in the presence of a huge number of variations, ambiguity, and to change the common phraseology.
People belonging to this or that profession, speak their own language, while knowing the normal, conventional Russian.Strictly speaking, it is another feature.It's safe to say that no other languages as diverse slang, jargon.It is unlikely that there is in them, and the whole classification, devoted to this topic.And it's definitely not the end.Russian language will be further developed, constantly adding new phrases and expressions.
