This study employs a multifaceted approach, drawing on insights from linguistic analysis, discourse studies, and media communication theory. The objective is to dissect the distinctive features of sports commentary in figure skating broadcasts, exploring its role in shaping audience engagement and narrative quality. The first chapter contains the analysis of the sports commentary in the realm of the sports discourse. The second chapter focuses on the analysis of grammatical, lexical, syntactic and stylistic features of the commentary during the broadcast of figure skating events, based on 178 utterances taken from the 2023 World Championship and the 2023 Gran Prix Final. Special attention is given to the use of specialised terminology, such as Technical Element Scores (TES) and Program Component Scores (PCS), and the stylistic devices employed by commentators to enhance audience connection and emotional resonance. Moreover, the thesis explores the convergence of commentary and coverage genres in figure skating broadcasts, highlighting the dynamic interplay between factual reporting and subjective interpretation.enfigure skating broadcastsports discourselive coveragesports announcer talkfigure skating terminologyonline sports commentaryБакалаврська робота
