PECULIARITIES OF FUNCTIONING OF GRAMMATICAL MEANS IN EXPRESSIVE COMPRESSED TEXTS

Abstract

The article deals with the investigation of grammatical means of achieving expressiveness in compressed texts. In addition, the peculiarities of functioning of these means are considered in the article. Researches of linguistic expressive means are closely related to stylistics, thus, expressive means in compressed texts are, first of all, represented by stylistic devices as the expressive discourse is actualized through stylistics. Grammatical level of the language is traditionally subdivided into morphological and syntactical, correspondingly we distinguish between morphological and syntactic grammatical expressive means. Thus, at the morphological level compressed texts are usually characterized by the use of certain parts of speech with expressive meanings. Here mostly belong such categories of words as adjectives and adverbs. Other morphological means may include the use of different tenses. As to syntactic level, the expressive means in the compressed texts are represented by syntactic synonymy, inversion, the use of different syntactic structures (sentence types), the use of short sentences in answers to questions, different types of repetition, ellipse, direct speech, parallel constructions. On the whole, both grammatical morphological means and grammatical syntactic ones are rather productive in achievement of expressiveness in the compressed texts.
