Аннотация:
This article explores the stylistic functions of repetition in English societal news discourse. Repetition, as a rhetorical and linguistic device, plays a vital role in emphasizing key ideas, constructing persuasive narratives, and reinforcing ideological positions in journalistic texts. Drawing on examples from contemporary British and American news articles, the study categorizes various forms of repetition—including lexical, syntactic, and discourse-level repetition—and examines their pragmatic and stylistic impact. The findings reveal that repetition is not only a marker of cohesion but also a powerful tool for audience engagement and ideological framing. This research contributes to a deeper understanding of how linguistic stylistic features operate in modern news media to shape public perception and discourse.
