Abstract

The primary resources in Russian for conveying emotional and expressive nuances of the language are intonation and diminutives. Russian is known as a language with rich morphology and an elaborated diminutive system. Researchers such as Wierzbicka (1985) claim that diminutives are a typical marker of Russian emotionality. Diminutives are a special form of words derived with the aid of diminutive suffixes, which give the words the additional meanings of smallness, irony, tenderness, and so on. The present work is devoted to the formation of diminutives and in particular to their expressive function.
