My Learning Strategies

Firstly, I read the material from papers and power point of first group. Then sometimes I also find out through the internet if there is material that I can't understand.

Synopsis

Personal opinion can be encoded in any utterance by means of special usage of the verb system of the target language (e.g Active vs Passive Voice; positive vs negative connotation; modality);syntax (e.g elliptical sentences; metaphors); nominal syntagms (choice of adjectives); phonostylistical devices, etc. These phenomena possess their peculiarities as far as languages are concerned and they would  be worth investigating from sociolinguistic/sociocultural point of view in further research  paper work.

Reflection

Having discussed, we can create news using news elements that have been known as well as the news value based on the facts.
