摘要：
Phrasemes are combinations of words whose meaning
does not derive from the meaning of their individual components. They have the
following characteristics: polylexicality, stability and idiomaticity (cf.
Burger 2015: 11ff.). They may express different functions: (1) indicators of
social relations, (2) emotional attitude of the speaker, (3) ironic or humorous
distance, (4) euphemistic action, (5) argumentation, and (6) clichés (cf. Fleischer
1997: 218ff.). The aforementioned functions of the phrasemes highlight their
ability to evaluate. According to Du Bois (2007: 139), taking a stance, i.e.
evaluation, is one of the most important language characteristics. Within the
evaluation theory, Martin and White (2005) distinguish attitude, engagement and
gradation. Attitude can further be divided into affect, judgment and
appreciation. In this paper, the emphasis is placed on affect, i.e. the
emotional meaning of phrasemes. The aim of this paper is to show the way
emotions are expressed by phrasemes in selected children’s SF novels. In
addition, the following research questions will be answered: Are phrasemes used
to express emotions? Which emotions are present? Which category of expressing
emotions is the most common?.
