The results of the European elections 2014 in Spain were characterized by the outstanding rise of a new party, Podemos, which obtained five seats in the European Parliament, despite being founded few months before the elections. The present study analyzes both the content and the presence of emotions in Podemos’ discourse on Facebook during the European electoral campaign. In particular, the affective content of both the party’s discourse and the comments of its followers will be analyzed through a pragmatic linguistic approach applied to a corpus of 163 posts and 215 followers’ comments. Results show an insistence on positive emotions in the party’s discourse and a prevalence of negative emotions in the comments of the citizens.Los resultados en España de las elecciones al Parlamento Europeo de 2014 se caracterizaron por el surgimiento de un nuevo partido, Podemos, que, a pesar de haber sido fundado pocos meses antes de las elecciones, obtuvo cinco escaños en el Parlamento Europeo. En este trabajo analizamos el contenido y la presencia de emociones en el discurso de Podemos en Facebook durante la campaña electoral europea. Concretamente, se analiza el contenido afectivo del discurso del partido y de los comentarios de sus seguidores mediante una aproximación lingüística pragmática aplicada a 163 posts y 215 comentarios. Los resultados muestran una insistencia en emociones positivas por parte del partido y una prevalencia de emociones negativas en los comentarios de los internautas.

Social media text is replete with unusual capitalization patterns. We posit that capitalizing a token like THIS performs two expressive functions: it marks a person socially, and marks certain parts of an utterance as more salient than others. Focusing on gender and sentiment, we illustrate using a corpus of tweets that capitalization appears in more negative than positive contexts, and is used more by females compared to males. Yet we find that both genders use capitalization in a similar way when expressing sentiment.

“…Há outros que se dedicam a analisar as particularidades da linguagem empregada nos diferentes meios (HEYD, 2015;SPILIOTI, 2015). E há ainda outros que visam a compreender traços comuns à comunicação mediada em substituição a, ou para compensar por, a ausência dos recursos paralinguísticos (VANDERGRIFF, 2013) e que permitem aos participantes fazer inferências, orientando-se no contexto comunicativo de um encontro interacional.…”

Resumo: Este trabalho analisa excertos de uma discussão no Facebook desencadeada pelo posting de um vídeo no qual uma mulher dirige insultos raciais a uma outra. A análise da interação que segue o vídeo ilustra como 1) a linguística sociointeracional e a análise do discurso suprem ferramentas úteis para se estudar a Comunicação mediada por computadores, e 2) ajuda a compreender o alinhamento dos participantes contra o racismo e a discriminação para construir solidariedade. Este estudo exemplifica como recursos linguísticos e extralinguísticos, disponíveis por meio do Facebook permitem aos participantes expressas suas opiniões sobre o episódio, construindo posições e identidades para si e o outro. Palavras-chave:Comunicação mediada por computadores. Facebook. Discriminação racial. Solidariedade. Identidade.Abstract: This paper analyzes excerpts of a Facebook discussion triggered by the posting of a video in which a woman directs racial insults towards another. The analysis of the ensuing interaction illustrates how 1) interactional sociolinguistics and discourse analysis provide useful tools to study Computer Mediated Communication, and 2) it helps to understand the participants' alignment against racism and discrimination to build solidarity. This study exemplifies how linguistic and extralinguistic resources available through Facebook enable the participants to express their opinions about the episode, construct positions, and self and others' identities.
