Abstract: The method of this study is the discourse analysis method to explore the linguistic expression of emotions with the aim of uncovering the process by which words elicit emotions and the way emotions are triggered by the recipients. This research is about the oral and written text analysis that is supposed to disclose the patterns of an emotional expression, using the qualitative and quantitative approaches to semantic interpretations of linguistic contexts of emotion usage. The paper explains some forms of discourse, i.e., political discourse, media discourse and everyday discourse, and demonstrates how emotional expressions are deployed in a deliberate attempt to establish identity, convince audiences and frame events. The paper is also concerned with the term of the emotional load of words and how it advocates meaning and interpretation in particular social and cultural context. These findings indicate that the expression of emotions is not a by-product of feelings but a power tool of the linguistic form, which is actively used to produce some effects. The research also emphasises the need to understand the emotional dimension of language to have meaningful and sound discourses interpretations and analysis especially in the multicultural set up.
