Professional words. Professional words are such words which are used in 
certain spheres of human activity. But these words name this professional indirectly. 
Here are some illustration of professional words which are used in mining industry: 
picks- parts of the mining device (tool), gathering-chain- a special type of the 
conveyor. They belong to non-literary layer of the language. The function of 
professionalisms may be different: to characterize the speech of a person, to make the 
description more precise and realistic. Here are some illustrations of professional 
words from medicine: heart man (a cardiologist), ice-box (morgue), red ink(blood), 
epitaph bound (seriously), feed- bag (stomach), perhaps list (the list of patients), ten 
bones (fingers), med school (medical college). 
Dialectical words. Dialectical words are such words which are connected with 
a certain area or region. They are not the property of the literary English for example: 
lass- a girl or a beloved, a lad- a boy or young man, daft- unsound mind, silly, all 
these belong to Scottish dialect. Here are some examples of the Southern dialect 
volk-folk, yound- found, zee- see. From Irish came the following dialectical words: 
hurley- hockey, colleen- a girl. From the northern dialectical came the following: to 
coom- to come, sun- son.

It is quite natural that dialectical word are commonly used in oral speech 
and emotive prose and always perform the function of characterizing a person, his 
breeding and education through his speech. Cockney dialect is a special dialect of the 
working class of London. Cockney dialect is made up of a collection of slang words. 
Here are some typical expressions of Cockney “Put us in for a cow. I’ve done me 
poppy and the linens reckon the favourite’ll walk it”. The translation is: Lend me ten 
shilling. I have lost my money and the newspapers say the favorite will win it. Here 
“cows” is half a note; “poppy” is a slang for money. 
Vulgar words. Vulgar words are words which are marked by coarseness of 
speech or expression, they are offensive, indecent. We distinguish two groups of 
vulgar swear words: bloody, goddam, damn etc. and obscene words or four-letter 
words. Vulgar words may sometimes appear in emotive prose and perform the 
function of interjections and speech characterization smeller- a nose, son of a bitch-a 
bad man, a missus- a woman, a right old bag- an old woman
