Abstract

Errata: Communications – Scientific Letters of the Zilina, No. 3, 2014, ”The System of Transitivity in the War on Terror Discourse”, pp. 46-51. The proper wording of paragraph 7 on p. 49 should be formulated as follows:

In the clauses within which enemies are presented, the speaker employs “a number of words“ which “have affective connotations“ and most of these words have “negative evaluations of the activity to which they refer. Therefore, the negative evaluation“ [16] can be observed in clauses with Material processes such as “kill“, “violate“, as they are usually negatively perceived in “most contexts. Thus the actors“ in the clauses are “evaluated negatively in the processes that they perform“ [16].
