Metaphor nature of the U.S. military professional discourse (as exemplified by the military lingo substandard vocabulary)

Shnyakina Kira   (PhD (Philology), associate professor, Military University, Moscow)

The military sublanguage meets communicative needs of the military and has specific features. The military service lingo embraces normative and substandard lexical systems. The latter is expressive, codified, attitudinal, and imaginative. The subject area of the study is the phraseological layer of informal communication among U.S. military personnel. Based on linguistic evidence the author proves that metaphoricity of the military professional world image is fully reflected in unofficial routine discourse of the military.

Keywords:U.S. Armed Forces, service member, professional world image, military lingo, discourse, idiom, phraseological unit.
