Sažetak
Due to it being a public activity, speech in Parliament is measured by different standards than language used in the private sphere. When delivering speech in Parliament, its members carry a great social responsibility for the spoken words, weighed for credibility and authenticity, social justifiability and usefulness, tolerance and ethics, and consequently aesthetics, and linguistic and cultural literacy (Škarić 2000: 9). As any other public speaker, the member of the Croatian Parliament does not speak only in his/her own name, but also as a representative of someone else, or a member of a certain party whose collective interests also need to be addressed. This occassion prompted the authors of this paper to focus their attention on the ways modern-day members of the Croatian Parliament use their mother tongue during delivery of their parliamentary speeches. As the research was conducted on the occasion of the 170th anniversary of the first parliamentary speech in the Croatian Parliament delivered in the Croatian language, this paper analyzes the language used in Croatian Parliament speeches, in the 7th Assembly. As public speakers, regardless of their origin or level of education, members of the Croatian Parliament need to be prime examples of the proper use of the Croatian standard language, equipped with linguistic skills and clarity of expression. With regard to this, authors analyze aberrations of 50 members of the Croatian Parliament from the Croatian standard language during the describe in an eleven-hour debate. Several sessions of the Croatian Parliament were recorded, the material was transcribed and analyzed on all linguistic levels with special attention paid to the phonetics-phonological and lexical analysis.
