Language Issues of Scientific Articles in the Field of Ecology

The research is aimed at analyzing some special features of transformations in the translation of the titles of authentic scientific articles in the field of ecology. The research methodology includes analysis and synthesis when working with research literature, a method of classification and systematization when working with a corpus of examples, a descriptive method when considering the principles of using translation transformations. As a result of the research, the features of the title as a structural element of a scientific article are considered; the role of translation transformations is determined; cases of using translation transformations are analyzed. The results obtained are valuable both from the point of view of translation theory and practice, and from the stylistics of a scientific text in English and Russian and can be used by linguists and practicing translators. In conclusion, it can be noted that the title plays an important role in the structure of the text, representing the first element that the reader gets acquainted with, while the main function of the title is to summarize the content of the corresponding text. Translation problems at the language level are most effectively solved through the use of translation transformations. Practical analysis has shown that the most common translation transformations are transformations at the lexical level, namely, transcription, transliteration, specification and explication at the grammatical level.
