THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE TERMINOLOGY OF REGENERATIVE AGRICULTURE: LINGUISTIC ANALYSIS AND SPECIFICS OF TRANSLATION

The article presents a comprehensive linguistic analysis of the English language terminology in the field of regenerative agriculture, which is actively developing amid the globalization of agricultural production and the growing interest in sustainable technologies. The study of the terminological system of regenerative agriculture is essential for shaping the national agricultural discourse in line with international environmental standards. The research examines terminological units related to both general principles of regenerative agriculture and specific technological practices, particularly no-till technology.The morphological structure of terms, their word-formation models, semantic features, and functioning in professional context are analyzed. The terminology under study includes simple, derivative, complex, and compound units; however, two- and multi-component constructions dominate. A classification of terms by word-formation models is carried out, with particular attention given to multi-component structures. The main translation strategies from English into Ukrainian are described: calque, transcoding, use of functional equivalents, and descriptive translation, with an emphasis on the importance of a comprehensive approach in selecting strategies. Special attention is paid to the specifics of translating multi-component and metaphorical terms, which require flexible application of translation techniques, considering the norms of the Ukrainian language and sector-specific context. Challenges associated with conveying highly semantically saturated terms and innovative word- formation models are identified. The article highlights the importance of developing bilingual terminological dictionaries and unifying the Ukrainian terminological system of regenerative agriculture. The results of the study can be used for the further standardization of professional vocabulary, improvement of agricultural text translation, and promotion of international scientific communication in the field of sustainable agriculture.
