METAPHOR OF NEGATIVE SEMANTICS IN SCIENTIFIC TECHNICAL TEXT

https://doi.org/10.18384/2310-712X-2017-6-6-14

Abstract

The article deals with terminological and live metaphors of negative semantics in scientific engineering texts. The analysis of the general and technical meanings of metaphors of negative semantics according to anthropocentrism is the main part of the research. Live metaphors of negative semantics are connected with negative emotions, behavior and critical analysis. Structurally-positive metaphors of negative semantics versus structurally-negative metaphors of negative semantics are thoroughly considered. Live metaphors of negative semantics organically used by the author have enhanced the emotional expressiveness of scientific engineering text significantly.
