Abstract

This study explores how the emotion anger is construed through language patterns and what are the causes of the emotion anger from a corpus linguistic perspective. It is demonstrated that grammar patterns are frequently used to construe emotions; and grammar patterns inform us the trigger of a specific emotion. It is then illustrated that the emotion anger is elicited by (physical or verbal) behaviour, (natural/abstract) phenomenon, mental state, and text , which would offer insights into emotion regulation. What is highlighted, most importantly, is that linguistic analysis of affective expressions is complementary to emotion research conducted from psychological perspective.
