Abstract:

The article deals with the metaphorical nomination and occasionalisms as a specific speech phenomenon in the language of Kevork Kevorkian. Based on excerpts from 2024 the language play at the lexical level in the various manifestations are discussed. Lexical innovations are often found in the observed texts, which function with strong expressiveness and connotative load. Мetaphorization is examined in all its variants in order to build a more general lexical picture of Kevork Kevorkian’s language.
