The asynchronous VN-reflexes (Bulaestian /ч’iндреǐ/ ‘generous’ presents a clear example) in the Ukrainian dialects were in depth considered by P. E. Hritsenko and were clearly explained as a “phonetic polonism”. Well, the question is when and how this phenomena appeared in the Bulaestian dialect? We should consider the following facts here: 1) in general, polonisms are presented in the Bulaestian dialect by some early examples mainly; 2) the great part of polonisms known in other Ukrainian dialects are absent in the Bulaestian one; 3) Polish szczodry ‘generous’ do not demonstrate any VN-reflex; 4) we see some analogies (шандрий, чандрий) in some other south-western Ukrainian dialects; 5) it is unlikely that these analogies appeared independently at all (at least that concerns the forms чандрийand чeндрий); 6) anyway, it is obviously impossible to get the Bulaestian variant neither from чандрий (conversely, чандрий appeared as a result of /e/ to /a/ transition from чeндрий), nor, more over, from шандрий (as it demonstrates, in addition, a loss of /ч/ from the initial /шч/). So, the phonetic form /ч’iндреǐ/ is an archaic one and reflects some early times of ethnic and linguistic history of Bulaestians.

When investigating the novel’s system of one or another writer, main themes of his works can be pointed out, to understand what problems inherent that time the writer describes. In this article, relying on Vasily Dubin’s novel trilogy “Anka”, the author investigates the development and resolution of the main plot-forming conflict. THe author proves that in trilogy of Vasiliy Diubin “Anca” the main plot-forming conflict is interpersonal artistic conflict caused by different ideological positions of the heroes. In all trilogy works (“Bronzovaea Kosa”, “Shtorm” and “Seinery uhodeat v more”) the combination of different types of secondary conflicts (poly-conflicts) are presented: military, social, ideological, love and others. In this research, when investigating the artistic conflict shown in trilogy of Vasiliy Diubin “Anka”, the author of article shows conditionality of “internal” and “external” conflicts by changing the social formation. THe article notes that citing on novel’s form, Vasiliy Diubin raises the problems inherent that time: the becoming of a new socio-economic system, the formation of a new way of farming, the defense of the fatherland from a foreign enemy. So, as studies show the real events and conflicts that took the form of an artistic conflict in the novel play the role of the exponent of author’s ideas.

Over the last decades, in most EU countries, there has been a steady increase in the number and share oflive birth outside marriage, a demographic phenomenon with negative social effects, at least on thosechildren.In this paper, we realised an analysis of the evolution of live birth outside marriage, in EU member statesduring 2005-2015. The study emphasize that during the analysed period, only in the case of 4 countriesthere were reductions in the share of the live birth outside the marriage, all the others having increases, insome cases even significant.From the comparative analysis of the statistical data we concluded that a determinant factor of extraconjugal fertility is the accentuated increase registered in the last decades of consensual unions, to theclassical marriages detriment.At the same time, the increase of the age at first marriage, a phenomenon encountered in all EU MemberStates, is another determining factor in the increase in the share of live birth outside marriage. Anotherconclusion of the study is that there is no direct correlation between the level of economic development ofcountries and the share of live birth outside marriage.
