Abstract

This article studies expressive syntax as a type of stylistic devices and illustrates its use in publicistic style economic oral and written media reports. The relevance of the research is that syntactic expressive means have not been thoroughly studied and analyzed in economic mass media. The work aims to identify the techniques that apply syntactic expressive means to evoke emotiveness in economic media reports. This article also addresses the recurrence of usage of expressive syntax in written and oral speech involving economic discourse. Using the method of text analysis on the bases of theoretical linguistic statements evaluating functional style, media stylistics, and stylistic devices in the English language, we determined the diverse usage of expressive syntax in both videocasting and written articles. From analyzed syntactic expressive means, we identified the frequency and common usage of such syntactic expressive means as rhetorical question and simple repetition in oral and written reports. The sample analysis indicated that a paragraph in any economic report might restrain more than one occurrence of expressive syntax; these carry a manipulative function through psychological phenomena represented via syntactic expressive means.

Summary

Introduction

1.1 Statement and Importance of the Problem. The paper surveys the problem of illustrating the necessity of involving expressive syntax in economic media reports. The research is designed to validate interest in the factors that evoke emotiveness and captivate recipients of economic reports. The article aims to research and identify the frequency of the involvement of syntactic expressive means in both videocasting and written newspaper articles to identify their actuality and function in economic mass media. Using theoretical illustrations of functional style and stylistic devices, we identify mass media as a separate branch of publicist style. We isolate syntactic EM (expressive means) as a type of SDs (stylistic devices). Considering different syntactic EM, we separated some to analyze on the bases of samples of various economic and/or business articles and video reports
