Sažetak
The aim of this phraseological research is to establish the quality and quantity of PUs in the lyrics of Guns N’ Roses songs from the band’s critically acclaimed album Use Your Illusion I in order to showcase the expressiveness of the lyrics in question. Firstly, the research will identify and subsequently classify the types of PUs contained within the lyrics, as well as uncover the extent to which certain types are represented in the corpus. The PUs will be confirmed using various online dictionaries and other Internet sources, and subsequently classified in accordance with the categorisation presented by Sabine Fiedler in English Phraseology: A Coursebook. Secondly, the modifications which certain PUs may have undergone will also be identified and classified, while the possible motivations for their occurrence will also be explored, also in accordance with Fiedler’s book.
