Abstract
This article is devoted to the study of the complex structure of the concept of correctional institution, which can be represented by both terms and commonly used lexemes in a comparative aspect. The subject of the work is lexico-semantic representation of the concept of correctional institution in English and Russian terminosystems in the field of jurisprudence. The purpose of the study is to identify the features of verbal representation of the concept of correctional institution in English and Russian texts in the field of law. When writing the article the following research methods were used: method of comparative analysis, method of component analysis. The central concept in the functional-semantic field, representing the concept of "correctional institution" in the English language is "prison". However, along with it, the terms "jail" and "penitentiary" are present in the everyday vocabulary of native speakers, which together are part of the official business and artistic styles. This work establishes the frequency and conceptuality of each of the above terms, based on the method of comparative analysis, the external conditions under which the use of a particular concept is semantically conditioned are established. Using the method of analogy, it was revealed which of the synonyms available in the English language most correspond to the Russian-language terms "prison", "pre-trial detention center", "colony". The practical value of the article consists in the possibility of using its materials in the compilation of dictionaries, as well as in the development of classes on comparative terminology of English and Russian languages, comparative lexicology of English and Russian languages, intercultural communication in universities.
