Abstract

This paper looks at projection in the discourse of news reports in English and Spanish. The analysis reveals the extent to which projection pervades these texts, not only at clause complex level – the traditional object of study of projection – but also below the clause complex, at clause simple and at group level. The discussion of a number of examples from English and Spanish news reports serves to answer the three research questions guiding this research, which concern (a) the preferred types of projection in news reports, (b) the preferred realizations of the different types of projection in news reports, and (c) the main cross-linguistic similarities and contrasts of projection in news reports. The answers to these issues ultimately contribute to a broader understanding of the concept of projection.

新闻报道中错综复杂的预测结构

本文探讨了英语和西班牙语新闻报道话语中的投射。分析揭示了投射在这些文本中的普遍程度，不仅在复合分句层面--投射的传统研究对象--而且在复合分句以下、简单分句和组层面。对英语和西班牙语新闻报道中一些例子的讨论有助于回答指导本研究的三个研究问题，它们涉及：（a）新闻报道中偏好的投射类型；（b）新闻报道中不同类型投射的偏好实现方式；以及（c）新闻报道中投射的主要跨语言相似性和对比性。对这些问题的回答最终将有助于更广泛地理解 "投射 "这一概念。
