Emotional Constituent of the Category of Tense and the Category of Aspect (Based on the Lyrics of English Songs)
Abstract
I.A. Shirokikh. Emotional Constituent of the Category of Tense and the Category of Aspect (Based on the Lyrics of English Songs). The article deals with two most important grammatical categories of the English language: the category of Tense and the category of Aspect. The author of the article offers theories about these grammatical categories, provided by foreign linguists. The theoretical aspects are proved with the examples from English songs, performed by the band The 1975. While writing lyrics, the author of the songs uses this or that Tense, Simple or Continuous Aspect, having a definite idea in his mind. It is the emotions he wants to present to the audience that determine the author’s choice. Any deviation from grammar norms / realization of syntagmatic meanings of a grammatical category creates some emotional effect, realization of emotional constituent of a definite grammatical category. Matty Healy, the author of the lyrics, implements this device and the examples given in the article prove that. Thus, the research combines theoretical background of the category of Tense and the category of Aspect, still debated by Russian and foreign linguists, as well as presentation of the two categories realization in the English song lyrics.
