Abstract

A striking example, which demonstrates the dynamic character of language, is the innovative lexical-semantic processes that demonstrate the absolute progress associated with the realization of new capabilities of the language system, including word formation.

Therefore, it is appropriate to consider Wilhelm von Humboldt's view that «the vocabulary of a language cannot be regarded as stiffened and changeless mass, as it is a constant process new words formation. The vocabulary remains the product of word-forming potential that develops and reproduces again, as long as the language exist as live speech of the people».

Thus, the formation of a significant number of neologisms in the modern Ukrainian literary language is an objective process of linguistic progress, without which any language is difficult to imagine today.

Modernization of educational activity in Ukraine in the 21st century provides a number of key problems have to be solved: ensuring formation of a person with innovative thinking and culture, capable to innovative activity;  affirmation principle of child-centrism in education; transition to tolerant pedagogy; preparation Ukrainian citizens for life in the conditions of global space, formation some kind of «globalist person»; education of the citizens of  Ukraine of a modern system of values that would contribute to the maximum self-realization of each of them, affirmation of national unity.

All above steps are accompanied by the emergence of new terms and names that are inherent in this process of new words, which in our study we will refer to as «neologisms of a New Ukrainian School».
