In the human cognitive mechanism, there are universal ideas about time, and these ideas shape the concept of time. This concept is verbalized in discourse with the help of various linguistic units expressing temporality. In this regard, the purpose of the article is to study how the universal concept of time is verbalized with the help of temporal units in artistic discourses in English and Azerbaijani languages. The features observed in both languages are universal aspects of those language units. Discursive accented temporal units in English and Azerbaijani languages differ from discursive markers in some subtleties. The main difference is that, in contrast to discursive markers, temporal units carrying discursive emphasis are one of the components of the organization of discursive pragmatics. Temporal markers can be lexical, morphological and syntactical from the point of view of the hierarchical structure of language. In particular, it should be noted that temporal markers can be word combinations and syntactic constructions. In our study, lexical and syntactical temporal units have been selected for analysis and regardless of whether temporal markers are explicit or implicit, they can carry discursive emphasis.

Palabras clave : Temporal markers; Discursive emphasis.
