| Description | My article is devoted to appraisal language means in Internet discussion-forums added to three You-Tube videos containing songs. There is assumed a minimal background in linguistic theory of the appraisal language. The set of text-examples demonstrates the way language is used to evaluate, thus it explores how participators of this forums pass judgment on the singer ("author") or on the singing band or the song; on themes dealt in the song or more precisely in the video; on the formal side of the song or the video and on the art aspect of the song or the video. Lexical, grammatical and stylistic means of evaluation and examples of the "engagement" are provided in the practical part too. |
