Functions of vocabulary and phraseology in rock-climbers’ dialect

Summary/Abstract: Research in the ways of language communication within rock-climbers community, has led to distinguish and describe functions of different vocabulary groups. The semantic and formal analysis of lexems and idioms in climbing dialect demonstrated that this local dialect develops on the boundary – it is partly environmental and partly professional. The aim of the research was to show the opposition of professional and non-professional vocabulary in rock-climbers’ dialect and to show professional lexis in nominative and communicative function and non-professional lexis in emotive function. The linguistic material was derived from spoken and written texts. The written texts come from Internet fora, websites of mountaineering clubs and subject literature whereas the spoken texts were gathered during talks with climbers. Trans. A. Gierba
