| Summary: | The article analyzes thematic area of youth discourse in printed edition. Modern "outbreak" of interest in a native speaker determines the relevance of the type of collective linguistic identity study (socio-cultural group) being the basic category for the nature of discourse. In discourse analyzing the set of texts produced by a linguistic identity is supposed to be the demonstration form of this identity considering their social, psychological and cultural factors. On the basis of the thesis that communicative situations focus on topics that are important for an individual or a social group, texts of youth discourse are considered to be explicated value priorities of youth discourse participants, i.e. collective linguistic identity. The subject of youth discourse is a person in their puberty with their complex of natural feelings and thoughts, paradoxical ideas about the world model, who reveals a penchant for mysteries in comprehension of the essence of being and tends to verbal rites and complex semiotics in speech activity. Classified features of the discursive portrait of a collective linguistic identity are age and socio-cultural features of participants of communication; the purpose and methods of communication; functions of communication; basic values which are identified in topical texts and basic ideas; selected language means which are determined by the speaker’s outlook. |
