Abstract

According to some researchers and casual observers or speakers, bon mots of Czech President Milos Zeman exceeded rules of the political communication a long ago, as well as boundaries of good taste. The purpose of this paper is - based on an analysis of selected speeches of the Czech president - to identify those elements and mechanisms of language, which usage departs from accepted standards of political or linguistic correctness, and which set new directions for the development of certain types of communication.
