Scientific Texts and Phraseological Units

Summary/Abstract: The article deals with the problem of phraseological units in scientific texts. Firstly, it argues the necessity of differentiation between the notions “phraseological unit” and “set expressions”, the latter being close to phraseological units in nature, but not altogether the same. Secondly, it describes the roles that the aforenamed lexical units play in the structure of scientific texts: on the one hand, though the frequency of occurrence of phraseological units in scientific texts of various genres is varied, one should stress their generally inconspicuous part as a means of adding emotional coloring to modern scientific style; on the other hand, one should point out the necessity of use of compound terms and a well-developed system of text-building means of scientific syntax without differentiating scientific texts according to their genres.
