VARIATIONS OF ANTONYMOUS TRANSFORMATIONS OF INTERTEXTUAL UNITS IN THE TEXTS OF MODERN UKRAINIAN MASS MEDIA

Journal Title: Слов’янський збірник - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 21

Abstract

The article examines variations of antonymous transformations of intertextual units (IU) in the texts of modern Ukrainian mass media. The relevance of studying this problem results from the active use of antonymous transformations of IU in the Ukrainian journalistic discourse. The object of this research is antonymous transformations of IU, and the subject is the identification of means of antonymous transformations and of the comparative frequency of their use. It is determined the most frequent methods of antonymous transformations are: addition of the antonymous particle “нe”, substitution of an antonym with the prefix “нi” for a component of IU; less frequent methods are: removal of the particle “нe”, addition of the preposition “без” / the prefix “без-”, substitutions of antonyms for lexical components of IU. In separate cases punctuation (inverted commas,question mark) is used. A typical method of antonymous transformations of IU is tu make them negative or, vice versa, affirmative, which is characteristic of its prototype. But negatives are more frequent than affirmatives, because negative constructions take place in the language more seldom than confirmative ones.
