THE OPPOSITION BETWEEN EMOTIONALLY COLORED AND EMOTIONALLY NEUTRAL VOCABULARY IN COMMUNICATION.
Abstract
Emotive speech is any speech utterance expressing emotion. The emotive quality of discourse is due to syntactical, international & lexical peculiarities. Lexical peculiarities mean the presence of emotionally colored Ws. The emotional coloring of the W may be permanent or occasional. The actuality of this work lies in its relevance to contemporary communication dynamics across various domains. Effective communication is essential for navigating diverse social, professional, and cultural landscapes in today's interconnected world. The opposition between emotionally colored and emotionally neutral vocabulary directly impacts how messages are received, interpreted, and understood in interpersonal interactions, organizational settings, and digital platforms.
