Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The aim of the study is to examine the stylistic coloring of adjectives in Russian language dictionaries to establish similarities and differences in the use of vocabulary. The research material was eight dictionaries of the Russian language. The complex is a part of style and uzus in Russian language dictionaries, indicating historical, emotional-expressive and functional-stylistic adjectives, continuously modified and supplemented by new style and uzus terms, what is determined by the influence of social-historical processes, linguistic and extralinguistic factors on the development of the Russian language style. Analysis of the system of stylistic and uzus dubs in Russian language dictionaries shows a lack of uniformity in the marking of both individual adjectives and the class of adjectives as a whole, this makes it necessary to improve the normative description of adjectives in Russian and create a coherent system of markers for indicating the style and features of use of lexical unit.
