Abstract

The paper attempts to identify common features characteristic of the expression of a threat in different communicative situations, as well as to describe the circumstances affecting the choice of certain language means to express threat. The direct and indirect forms of speech aggression seen as threat are studied in four spheres: political, business, everyday vernacular and mass media. We used data obtained by the method of continuous sampling from the Internet as material for the study: screenshots of personal correspondence, posts on social networks, photographs of paper media. In all these data, the speech act of the threat is recorded in writing and represents a threat-warning.

Summary

Introduction

В работе предпринята попытка выявить общие черты, характерные для выражения угрозы в разных коммуникативных ситуациях, а также описать условия, влияющие на выбор тех или иных языковых средств при выражении угрозы. Исследованы прямые и косвенные формы проявления речевой агрессии в форме угрозы в четырёх сферах: политической, деловой, бытовой и сфере масс-медиа. Такой направленностью обладает и речевой акт угрозы, коммуникативной целью которого является побуждение слушающего к выполнению каких-либо действий, выгодных для говорящего.
