SOMATISMS IN A MODERN JOURNALISTIC TEXT

Abstract

The article considers features of the use and functioning of phraseological units in modern electronic journalistic publications. The emphasis is placed on the consideration of the basic principles of classification of these phraseological units, since the phraseological potential of a language determines the peculiarities of the mentality, national color and uniqueness of a particular language. Features of the function of phraseological units to create emotional, expressive expressiveness, as well as to strengthen argumentation and persuasion are considered. A direct correlation is established between the level of expressiveness and emotionality of phraseology and the influence of communication on the addressee. Within the framework of the conducted research, the frequency of the use of phraseological units by subgroups of individual lexical and thematic groups is indicated, which allows to talk in more detail about the picture of the world of a certain nation. The emphasis is placed on somatic phraseological units, as they most accurately characterize the color and mentality of the nation.
