Influence of hashtag on formation of new phraseological units in political journalism of online media

Abstract

The paper investigates new phraseological units in political journalism of online media, which are characterized by fused writing of words that make up the phraseme. It is assumed that this kind arose under the influence of hashtags in which, as a rule, some words are written without spaces. Phraseological innovations of this kind are part of the language game in journalism of online media, as they currently are not so typical for printed newspapers. The main purpose of using neophraseme with fused writing of words is to increase the text expressiveness and emotionality.
