Drawing on discourse analysis and ethnomethodology, this study presents an analysis of online political discussions on the contentious issue of agricultural subsidies as a case of ‘talk-in-(inter)action’. A corpus retrieved from an internet forum biased towards right-wing framings of political issues furnished this study with a means to focus on an ‘inter-discursive’ contestation taking place within a debate setting characterised by an asymmetric representation of opposing viewpoints. Entries criticising and entries defending agricultural subsidies and/or farmers were juxtaposed and analysed as culturally adroit performances of the social role of a representative of a local majority or minority opinion. The paper provides an elucidation of the unequal demands on representation of these diverse positions and clarifies the effects of some frequently employed discursive strategies, which bolster both the persuasiveness of the promoted interpretation and the positioning of the represented discourse on the battlefield of gaining/maintaining discursive dominance. It is argued and shown that the position of local dominance vs. subordination is not a matter only of numerical prevalence, but also (and perhaps primarily) of the interactional co-production of respective positions and of the discursive accomplishment of corresponding social roles.

The study was aimed at commenting linguistic errors in the discussions on the Internet. Based on the theory of linguicism, it was verified how the Internet users perceive commenting on other people’s errors and what is the motivation of people pointing out errors. The main objective was to determine whether such commenting is a result of one’s negative opinion regarding the intelligence, health, and other resources of the person committing the error. The study comprised two phases: phase one involved the analysis of comments on the Internet in discussion groups and on fan pages, while phase two was devoted to poll surveys in which 387 respondents participated. The results indicate that some comments rely on a conviction that the use of correct Polish language indicates a higher social status, higher intelligence and qualifications, whereas discrimination caused by using non-standard language constitutes a real problem.

Przedmiotem badania było komentowanie błędów językowych w dyskusjach internetowych. Bazując na teorii lingwicyzmu, sprawdzono, jak internauci postrzegają komentowanie cudzych błędów oraz jakie są motywy osób wytykających innym błędy. Zasadniczym celem badania było ustalenie, czy za takimi komentarzami stoi negatywna opinia dotycząca inteligencji, zdrowia i innych zasobów osoby, która popełniła błąd. Badanie składało się z dwóch etapów: w pierwszym poddano analizie komentarze internautów w grupach dyskusyjnych i fanpage’ach, w drugim zaś przeprowadzono badanie ankietowe, w którym wzięło udział 387 respondentów. Wyniki wskazują, że za częścią komentarzy stoi przekonanie, iż posługiwanie się poprawną polszczyzną jest wyznacznikiem wyższego statusu społecznego, wyższej inteligencji i kwalifikacji, zaś dyskryminacja spowodowana nieużywaniem języka standardowego stanowi realny problem.

The aim of the present study is to analyse the organized and simple management of the derivation of feminine counterparts from masculine surnames in Czech on the basis of Language Management Theory (LMT). Two aspects of this issue arouse controversies: 1) the use of the masculine forms of surnames instead of feminine derivatives by some Czech women; 2) the legal regulation of surname usage, which allows women to register the masculine forms of surnames only under specific conditions. On the macro-level, the activities of linguistic institutions, register offices and lawmakers are analysed, with special focus on a bill concerning registries, names and surnames, proposed by a group of senators, which would implement the liberalization of the female surname registration. The bill was ultimately rejected by the Czech senate. On the micro-level, online discussions concerned with feminine surnames and related legal aspects are examined, focusing on participants’ noting and evaluation. Different standpoints, argumentation and language ideologies behind the employed arguments are presented. Some theoretical problems of LMT are also discussed, such as the cooperation of different participants during a single language management act, various forms of noting, or the language management approach to legislative processes.
