Abstract

The language of newspapers helps people learn a wide range of topics. Its language serves primarily as a means of conveying information. Besides persuading and entertaining the people, that is what makes its style special. Its vocabularies and sentence structure have to be chosen efficiently to affect all readers. Hence, this study seeks to analyze texts from British newspapers to determine how journalists use language when reporting on some sensitive subjects, such as the writing on the current topic that has occupied the global press, Covid19. Therefore, this study sets to fulfil several aims; the most important of them are identifying the stylistic features at the syntactic and lexical levels used in The Guardian and The Sun newspaper news on the coronavirus pandemic. Besides, it aims at finding out the similarities and differences at the levels mentioned above between the Guardian and the Sun newspapers news on that specific subject.
