Irony is a complex phenomenon. Even though the numerous theories of irony differ from one another, they all seem to agree on the fact that irony implies certain contradiction / discrepancy / inconsistency between what is said and the reality. The purpose of this paper is to describe the language criteria of irony. The studies are contrastive character (French and Polish corpora of tweets about public transport). In the first phase of the study based on contrastive linguistic analysis, we will answer the following questions: What are the language criteria of irony? Are they identical for both languages? The research will help to expand the knowledge of automatic processing of natural language and, more precisely, in the analysis of text data and searching in texts.

The paper refers to the emotional level in online communication, which appears in a special way through colorful emojis in social media. The functions of these pictorial symbols enable people to express their emotions and feelings. It is related to the fact that face-to-face situations are less and less common in digital communication. Moreover, their use leads to the multimodality of the numerous digital contributions, which makes them particularly enriching, colorful and complementary. Research on emojis is becoming significant in linguistics over time, so they form a broad field for the development and discovery of new phenomena. The aim of this paper is to consider what emotions can be conveyed with the help of emojis and whether these pictorial signs can create a new form of communication. For this reason, their influence on digital communication is examined by analyzing selected tweets about Nobel Prize winner Olga Tokarczuk on the basis of three main criteria (form, content and emotions of emojis). Conclusions bring to light the finding that emojis, despite their ambiguity, can convey positive as well as neutral and negative emotions. The new form of communication arouses interest among Internet users, which can lead to next unknown ways of using them. Emojis are an area that has not yet been thoroughly researched, so their study by linguists is noteworthy.
