Abstract

The aim of the present study was to analyse the emotional vocabulary used in the oral discourse of 40 immigrants from Morocco, Syria, Egypt and Ukraine who took the Diploma LETRA exam (Corpus Nebrija-INMIGRA). The web-based search engine emoFinder was used in order to identify the emotional vocabulary and categorize it in terms of valence. The results are discussed considering the influence of the linguistic and sociocultural background of these immigrants.
