Voicing as an Interpretation of a Written Text (Based on the Material of Essay Texts)

The article is devoted to the study of the relationship between written and voiced versions in the paradigm of linguistic variantology. The research material, collected through an experiment, was the texts of essays on the topic "Speech Culture in My Professional Activity" and their voiced versions by the authors. We interpret the voicing of a written text as a) a process and a result of interpretative activity, b) the generation of a secondary text through derivational mechanisms of its transformation, c) a change in the code, which in turn leads to changes at the formal-semantic level. The voiced version of a written text is characterized by the same derivational mechanisms as between written texts acting in the primary-secondary text relationship. The voiced versions, to which the requirement not to rely on the prepared text was not applied, reflect the desire for formal-semantic identity, while the voiced versions without visual support on the prepared text are characterized by the greatest differences relative to the original text, a high level of interpretation (compression, unfolding of meaning).
