NEKAJ STALNIH, NEKAJ NEVARNIH IN NEKAJ TEŽAVNIH LASTNOSTI RABE FRAZEOLOGIJE V MEDIJSKIH BESEDILIH

Abstract

The article presents the use of phraseological units (PUs) in texts about the 2022 Slovenian presidential elections published in three magazines and partly on three web portals. The data are compared with existing data on phraseology in journalistic texts generally. Common characteristics are presented according to the text type, distribution and use of phraseological modifications. The connotation of PUs that reveals the writer's temperament or intention proves to be dangerous. If this connotation is absent, the rational control of expression is revealed. These characteristics of PUs pose a problem when a linguist wants to determine the status and function of a PU. Keywords: Phraseology, phraseme, phraseological modification, modification, journalistic text
