Summary/Abstract: The presented paper is a research dive into the topic of web corpora as well as an analysis of linguistic grasp of the issue of migration from the perspective of social, cultural and cognitive linguistics. The presented research reflects the problem of the construction of the language grasp of this issue in Europe in a selected German mass media discourse. We compare the phenomenon of migration in 2015/2016, when record migration flows to the EU were recorded, and in 2019, when migration kept increasing. The analysis of language grasp of the issue of migration is a part of our scientific research within the project VEGA Xenisms in German and Slovak communications.
