La creatividad lingüística y fraseológica en los comentarios de noticias en la prensa digital española

The comment's sections of digital newspapers have become in the last decade a new discursive genre that shows a high degree of creativity and linguistic variation. To study a special type of idiom variation in this recent discursive genre, 20 examples in different digital newspapers taken from seven Spanish digital newspapers will be analyzed. The methodology consists of a descriptive analysis from the point of view of the creativity presented by those idioms used by readers. A classification from a pragmatic point of view has been proposed. After the analysis, it can be stated that both creativity and phraseological variation can be considered a very useful discursive tool.
