Stilistika loeng
g. lexicology (words), morphology (word structure), syntax
(structure of sentences), phonetics (sounds and intonation) stylistics studies everything that
FGI 1081 Stylistics (I. Ladusseva) 3
makes the utterance of the text expressive. Stylistics cuts right across all the basic linguistic
sciences.
Phonetics: "silent sleepy streets" (alliteration; lexicology) "quiet noiseless streets" sentence
is the same but the effect is different.
Morphology: "spoke" and "spake" from the point of view of morphology these are just 2
variants of the past tense. From the stylistic point of view they are 2 different models of
expression because they carry different stylistic overtones. "Spake" is archaic and therefore is
used in elevated style or for the irony in everyday speech, while "spoke" is just the ordinary way
of expressing.
