Summary/Abstract: This article continues to discuss issues taken up in the material published in ”ActaNeophilologica” in 2014. So far, the attention has been turned to the meaning and thescope of use of the Polish and Russian definition of obituary; it has been emphasized thatthe Russian literature takes a different approach to the terms obituary and condolences;a closer look has also been taken at the first obligatory components of condolence entries,such as the initial formulas which are characteristic of the genre examined and themethods of identification of the message addressees. This part discusses the remainingcomponents of condolences, i.e. the onomastic identification and the characteristicsof the deceased, the identification of senders of Internet entries and the final formulas.It has also been noticed that the crash of the governmental airplane on the territory ofa neighbouring country contributed to starting a more or less formal dialogue betweenRussia and Poland.
