Nominal forms of address and the construction of attitude in young speakers of Twitter (X), Argentina

In the following paper, we present an investigation into the youth cyber-discourse (Palazzo, 2008) of Argentines on Twitter, currently called ‘X’, based on the forms of address. Building on Kerbrat-Orecchioni's (2010) contributions for nominal forms of address, we analyse how these elements ass...

Building on Kerbrat-Orecchioni's (2010) contributions for nominal forms of address, we analyse how these elements assist in the construction of the speaker's attitude towards an utterance or interlocutor. Attitude is a concept from Appraisal Theory (White 2002), which focuses on the interpersonal metafunction of language todescribe the linguistic mechanisms a speaker uses when evaluating others and their utterances. These shape an attitude of judgement, appreciation or affect which, in turn, can be in a positive or negative polarity. Our main objective is to describe how forms of adress are key elements for analysing the configuration of X users' attitudes. To this end, we start from a descriptive and exploratory methodology of 300 tweets of young Argentines collected from the ‘Responses’ section of the @porquestendencia account to analyse them using a qualitative tool built ad hoc. En el siguiente trabajo, presentamos una investigación en torno al ciberdiscurso juvenil (Palazzo 2008) de los argentinos en Twitter, actualmente llamada “X”, a partir de las formas de tratamiento (FT). Partiendo de los aportes de Kerbrat-Orecchioni (2010) para las FT nominales, analizamos cómo estos elementos asisten en la construcción de la actitud del hablante hacia un enunciado o interlocutor. La actitud es un concepto de la Teoría de la Valoración (White 2002), que se centra en la metafunción interpersonal del lenguaje para describir los mecanismos lingüísticos que utiliza un hablante al evaluar a otros y a sus enunciados. Estos configuran una actitud de juicio, apreciación o afecto que, a su vez, pueden ubicarse en una polaridad positiva o negativa. Nuestro objetivo principal es describir cómo las FT son elementos clave para analizar la configuración de la actitud de los usuarios de Twitter. A tal fin, partimos de una metodología descriptiva y exploratoria de 300 tuits de jóvenes argentinos recogidos de la sección “Respuestas” de la cuenta @porquestendencia para analizarlos a partir de una herramienta cualitativa construida ad hoc.
