Lexis refers to word use. Lexicology is literally the study of words.
"Good", "sunny", "elated", "jolly" could all be said to be under a positive lexis, where as
"Death", "confrontation", "rain", "depressed" are all a negative lexis
It can often be used to infer people's demeanour. Although people don't necessarily say how they feel, they're choice of words can be revealing.

Get the lexis mug.Blackbird Leys is the roughest bit of Oxford, youths roam the streets and pick on anyone, whether they be an outsider or a local... at least that's what most people in Oxford think it's like. But really, it's actually an area with a strong sense of community spirit. There's no over entitled students around here, no one asking for money, no tourists. Just a proper working class community. There's chavs, like anywhere else, but most people on the estate are ordinary folk whose families have lived here for decades.
Me: You should actually come and see Blackbird Leys for yourself, it's a proper place that's actually down to Earth.
