Abstract

Edimbilim, dil kullanımı üzerine yoğunlaşan bir disiplindir. Temel inceleme alanı dilin iletişimde nasıl kullanıldığı üzerinedir. Edimbilim, söylem çözümlemesi alanı gibi bağlam içerisindeki dilin kullanımını ele alarak iletişim bağlamındaki dil kullanımlarını ve durumsal bağlama göre şekillenen işlevlerini belirlemeye çalışır. Bir dil üretimi esnasında yalnızca üretilen bir anlam yoktur, aynı zamanda gerçekleştirilen örtük bir edim vardır. Bu çalışmada, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri Başkanı Trump’ın Çin, Kuzey Kore, Rusya, İran ve Türkiye ile ilgili kullandığı tehdit içerikli ifadeler edimbilimsel açıdan ele alınmış ve Amerika örneği ile siyasilerin sıkça başvurdukları tehdit dilinin dilsel özellikleri ortaya çıkarılmıştır. Çalışma kapsamında Başkan Trump’ın göreve başladığı 2016 yılından 2020 yılına kadar olan dönemde Çin, Kuzey Kore, Rusya, İran ve Türkiye ile ilgili attığı tehdit içerikli tweetler incelenmiş, elde edilen verilerin Sketch Engine yazılımı ile sıklık ve bağımlı dizin analizleri yapılmış, ilgili grafikler oluşturulmuş, sonuç kısmında da elde edilen bulgular yorumlanmıştır.

THE LANGUAGE OF THREAT: PRAGMATIC ANALYSIS OF THREAT EXPRESSIONS OF THE US PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP

Year 2020, Issue: 12, 59 - 87, 31.05.2020

Abstract

Pragmatics is s discipline focusing on language use. The main research area of pragmatics concerns the way language is used in communication. As well as the field of discourse analysis, pragmatics deals with the language use in context thus trying to determine the ways of using language in the context of communication and its functions which take shape according to the situation. Language production comprises not only the production of meaning but also an implicit performance. In this study, the expressions containing threat used by the US President Donald Trump against China, North Korea, Russia, Iran and Turkey were examined from the point of view of pragmatics. Using the example of USA, the linguistic features of threat language which frequently occurs in
the speech of politicians were revealed. Within the scope of the study, Trump’s
tweets containing threat against China, North Korea, Russia, Iran and Turkey
between 2016, when President Trump took office, and 2020 were analysed. Frequency
and concordance analysis of the acquired data was carried out using
the Sketch Engine software, the corresponding graphics were created, and the
findings were interpreted in the results section.
