Abstract
- With the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, people needed information about the new disease. The journalists immediately facilitated it in the information portals. Due to lack of specialized knowledge, they frequently used metonymy very often, so as a result several popular synonyms acquired by readers appeared. In the text we analyze how the predicative name COVID-19 (also considering all possible synonyms) belonging to the category of <infectious diseases> is actualized in the texts of the Spanish language press online. We present the determinants and light verbs which are mentioned used by Spanish-speaking journalists, and this allows to know better not only the syntax of the name in question but also the combinatory inventory of all the predicative names of the same class. As the texts studied are characterized by a certain level of specialization, the results of the study may do not correspond to the analysis of other, more or less specialized, texts., more or less specialized.
