Abstract
The article addresses a range of issues centering on interjections pragmatic markers of discourse. The interjection wow, the object of our investigation, expressing the speaker’s state of mind like ‘being extraordinary, outstanding successful, excited, pleased, surprised, admired, amazed etc., was registered in COCA, the American corpus in Spoken English (the total number is 9478 cases). They are still perfunctorily considered among miscellaneous phenomena. Though used as a part of a sentence interjections are able to change drastically the meaning of the sentence or discourse they also actualize their ethnic-cultural component. The present research is focused on the interjections as a means of expressing the mental state of the Speaker/Hearer to the utterance at the present moment of speaking. Accordingly, the interjection represents the concept of “feeling”. The suggested approach is significant for speech pragmatics, wherein it is used as a speech act, and a pragmatic component of discourse in the compressed form.
