摘　　要：The paper discusses different kinds of newspaper headlines and National Geographic headlines in English and in Polish, categorizing the latter into regional and relational ones on the basis of the semantic criteria proposed by Schneider （2000）. In this classification, regional headlines consist of proper or common nouns. The category of relational headlines is further subdivided into relational nouns, relational adjectives, relational prepositions, and relational verbs, depending on whether the headlines include deverbal nouns, deverbal and evaluative adjectives, prepositions, and finite or non-finite verbs （which may often he omitted）. The analysis clearly shows that relational adjectives and relational nouns seem to be in the majority of National Geographic headlines in the American edition, while regional nouns make up more than half of the Polish headlines analyzed. The two tendencies are connected with a descriptive character of the English headlines and a referential or informative character of the Polish ones. The research conducted is relevant for linguists, headline writers, and those who are interested in journalism and mass media
