KOMUNIKÁCIA V ZÁUJMOVÝCH A PROFESIJNÝCH SKUPINÁCH

The paper deals with the communication within hobby and professional groups. Relying on Slovak as well as foreign literature and researches, the author describes how specific features of the communication in the given environment can be analysed. She claims that such communication can be studied partially or comprehensively – partial researches rely on the analysis of a particular level of language (mainly lexical) and deal with non-standard lexical components of sociolect (slang, argot, professionalisms); complex researches rely on the communication situation and other situational parameters and deal with the communication register. Based on the characteristics of slang, argot, and professionalisms and on the relationship between sociolect and communication register, the communication within given spheres can be comprehensively analysed by induction or deduction – from non-standard lexis to sociolect to communication register or vice versa.
