Abstract
This paper studies the preverbal use of intensifiers so and totally in youth language by analysing a corpus of 16 YouTube videos made by native English speakers aged 16 to 23. It was done to research new linguistic trends among youth in natural language, which in previous research was mostly done on adults and in scripted media, which may not accurately reflect natural speech patterns. The research shows that so appears 589 times. It was mostly used as intensifier or conjunction, but its... More preverbal use was very minimal (0,34%). Secondly, totally was only found 13 times and only as an intensifier. Interestingly, totally was used preverbally more than so which takes up 61,54% of instances. These findings suggest that so is a common intensifier among youth in this corpus, but its preverbal use as an intensifier is very rare. On the other hand, totally is not a dominant intensifier among youth in this corpus, but in the rare instances when it appeared it was used as a preverbal intensifier quite frequently. This shows that more exhaustive research on these needs to be done to generalize results and conclude an existence of trends. Less
Abstract (croatian)
Ovaj rad proučava predglagolsku uporabu intenzifikatora so i totally u jeziku mladih analizom korpusa koji se sastoji od 16 YouTube videa snimljenih od strane izvornih govornika engleskog jezika starosti između 16 i 23 godine. Svrha rada je proučiti nove lingvističke trendove u prirodnom govoru mladih koji su do sada promatrani većinom u govoru odraslih i neprirodnom jeziku serija koji ne mora biti točna prezentacija lingvističkih trendova u prirodnom govoru. Istraživanje je pokazalo da... More se so pojavljuje 589 puta. Većinom je bio korišten kao intenzifikator ili veznik, ali njegova predglagolska uporaba je minimalna (0,34%). Nadalje, totally je pronađen 13 puta i samo kao intenzifikator. Zanimljivo je što se totally koristi u predglagolskoj uporabi više od so, čak 61,54% od ukupnog broja pojavljivanja. Ovaj zaključak upućuje na to da je so češći intenzifikator od totally u jeziku mladih, ali da je njegova predglagolska uporaba rijetka. S druge strane, totally nije dominantan intenzifikator u jeziku mladih u ovom korpusu, ali u rijetkim slučajevima u kojima se pojavljuje, korišten je u predglagolskoj uporabi. Ovo pokazuje da je potrebno opširnije istraživanje kako bi se rezultati generalizirali i donio zaključak o trendovima. Less
