... The author comes to the conclusion that the onomastic space of the work is connected with the writer’s picture of the world, who models the possible path of development of human civilization, based on the priority of the moral law.

Informative, representational, and cumulative functions do not imply any linguistic specificity in the texts. It is revealed that the specificity of clinical recommendations ...

The discourse used for such analysis is a lifestyle instruction video from YouTube. Methodologically, the ...

The use and functioning of imperative clichés in speech are central topics in describing the category ...
