The influence of past and ongoing wars on the English military vocabulary is hard to overestimate. New lexical units appear almost on a daily basis, and while some of them are fleeting and never take a stable root in the English vocabulary, others integrate deeply into the day-to-day speech. These words include slang, military jargon, and even new terminology, required by the latest inventions of the global military machine. As the channels of communication evolve, this terminology is taking its deserved spot among the Cyberspace – a complex, multidimensional sphere of synthesis of reality, human experience, and activity mediated by the digital and information technologies, a component of the technosphere of human existence [1; 3]. It is through the digital space that people find out new and relevant information about the ongoing armed conflicts, and with it – adopt a new parlance that is widely used on public channels of ommunication. As a result of the ongoing Russo-Ukrainian war, many neologisms have appeared in the English language, a huge part of them – transliterated Ukrainian slang words, like “Bavovna” or “Moped”. So far, this terminology is poorly documented in any of the contemporary dictionaries. popup.nrat_date 2026-04-17 Close
