Morphological Analysis of Lexical Units Related to Agrotourism

Аннотация

The article provides a comprehensive morphological analysis of lexical units specific to the field of agrotourism, exploring the structural mechanisms underlying the formation and development of specialized vocabulary. Emphasis is placed on productive word-formation processes in English, such as affixation, compounding, conversion, and abbreviation, with illustrative examples drawn from agrotourism-related discourse. The study highlights how these morphological strategies contribute to the precision, adaptability, and semantic richness of the terminology used in agrotourism. It also discusses the influence of interdisciplinary integration—particularly with ecology, gastronomy, and rural development—on the expansion of agrotourism vocabulary. The findings underscore the dynamic nature of terminological growth in response to evolving agricultural and tourism practices, and they reveal a tendency toward lexical innovation to accommodate emerging concepts and services within this niche sector. Keywords: Analysis of lexical units, morphological analysis, agrotourism, formation, agricultural tourism terminology. as a result of the Renaissance of education in Western Introduction: Various aspects of English used in the Europe in the XV and XVI centuries, known as the field of agriculture (farming methods, agricultural Renaissance, and partly as a result of the industrial systems) and in some fields related to agriculture revolution of the XVIII century and its scientific (agricultural zoology, agrotourism, biology, botany, consequences” [2, p.125]. ecology, entomology, gastronomy, land measurement, plant pathology, and zoology) are analyzed from For specific purposes, the English language uses several several perspectives. The continuous expansion of morphological ways to compile its own list of terms – human knowledge is associated with the formation of abbreviations, affixation (prefix, suffixation and plural new spheres of communication, where the use of affixation), reverse formation, morphological stress language takes on specific forms (professional and change, composition/addition, conscious/ deliberate scientific jargon), for example, English for agriculture. L. coining, reduction, transformation, distortion, Bloomfield suggests that professional and scientific deviation, origin from proper names or personal jargon is characterized by such characteristics as surnames, folk/ common etymology [3, p. 48]. Only two accuracy, constant exchange of standard formulations, of these procedures seem to be extremely productive precise definition of terms, widespread use of various in agriculture. linguistic structures, the use of terms, numbers, English: affixation and combination.
