Consensual unions are a well-known practice among the lower social strata in Latin America. However, this type of union is increasing in the region, among higher educated groups and in countries where they were never widespread, such as in Brazil. This study uses couples' data from the demographic census available at IPUMS (N=193,689) to identify the socioeconomic and cultural features of consensual unions in Brazil. The effects of women's education, couple's income, children, and religion on nuptial behavior are analyzed. Utilizing logistic multilevel analysis, special attention is paid to the effect of differences in the cultural environment of states in the five major regions in which these unions occur. Results indicate that socioeconomic factors affect the incidence of consensual unions in Brazil. Consensual unions are more common among lower income couples and less educated women, but are also found among the upper classes. Cultural diversity between Brazilian states is also reflected in nuptial behavior. Significant variance at the state level is partially explained by the ethnic composition of each state.DOI http://dx.doi.org/10.20947/S0102-309820160004
Abstract: For many years, the bilingual program continues to receive criticism. Many experts believed that it could affect intellectual development. A number of opinions on bilingualism are often based on myths and misinterpretations, but less on scientific findings. There is a number of myths about bilingualism and in particular about teaching children a second language early such as, language learning delay, split personality, cerebral confusion, or mixing language that affects confusion. In spite of receiving criticism, there are many advantages that support bilingualism. This article is going to discuss the definition of bilingualism, benefits of bilingualism in early childhood; cognitive advantages, social-emotional advantages, and career advantages. Furthermore, this article highlights the phenomenon of teaching English to young learners in Uzbekistan in relation to the benefits of being bilingual. Since English has gained the status of international lingua franca, therefore teaching English as a foreign language (afterward EFL) has become one of the major issues both to governments and individuals. Introducing English to young learners meets the benefits of bilingualism in early childhood.

This article discusses the main methods of translating linguistic and cultural phraseological compounds into English and Uzbek. Phraseological expressions cannot be considered only as a separate part of linguistics, there are cases when they can be used or not, because they form an important part of the general vocabulary of English and Uzbek languages. Nowadays it is very important to follow the process of replenishment of the phraseological fund of English and Uzbek languages, because phrases appear very quickly and are inextricably linked with the development of science, new technologies, political games and the process of military conflict. It should be noted that phraseological compounds are common. Finding the phraseological connections in the source text and the appropriate equivalent in the translation process is the most important step for the translator
The article presents the results of a sociological study of the population of two Arctic regions of Russia using the actual tools for measuring six Hofstede's ethnometric indicators ("masculinity", "power distance", "collectivism/individualism", "uncertainty avoidance", "longterm orientations", "indulgence" at the individual level. The field stage of the study was carried out in October-November 2021 in the Arctic territories of Arkhangelsk oblast and the Komi Republic. The tasks of identifying indicators of the cultural specificity of the population of these territories, differences in the values of ethnometric indicators between separate social groups (gender, age, income level), as well as in the inter-territorial context, were solved. The results of the study show that there is a statistically significant positive relationship between the level of income and the values of the indicators "long-term orientations", "masculinity" and "power distance" — the higher the value of these ethnometric indicators, the higher the individual's income. It has been established that the population of the Arctic territories of the Komi Republic is characterized by a higher level of "collectivism", "masculinity" and "uncertainty avoidance" than the population of Arkhangelsk oblast. The population of the Arctic territories of Arkhangelsk oblast, in turn, is characterized by higher values of the "permissibility of satisfaction of desires" indicator. A hypothesis is formulated about the mechanism of spatially determined socio-economic selection of cultural patterns of individuals, implemented in the mechanisms of human capital reproduction. This hypothesis needs to be operationalized and verified in the course of further research. The results obtained can be used in solving a wide range of tasks of public administration, in particular, for regional specification of State programs to stimulate entrepreneurial activity of the population and activities in the field of NGOs. The process of adaptation of the toolkit and its verification deserves a detailed consideration in a separate publication.
