Vulgarizmi i vulgarnosti u govoru preloga

Abstract

The authors have singled out the obscene-vulgar layer from the rich corpus of the Dictionary of the Prelog Group of Speeches (Blažeka 2018): both the one containing vulgar expressions and the one with obscene content, but without the use of vulgar expressions. The separated language layer is divided according to the criteria of pragmatic functions it has in communication. Most of the categories refer to criticism or ridicule of various social phenomena or actions of specific persons, and criticism or ridicule of various social phenomena or actions of specific persons related to the so-called "sexual revolution", which the speaker considers negative or inappropriate.
