Abstract

Lexical bundles are frequently recurring word sequences (e.g. as can be seen) that function as building blocks of discourse. This corpus-based study examined the use of four-word lexical bundles in business emails written by three groups of writers: intermediate business English learners, advanced business English learners, and working professionals. The prominent structural and functional characteristics of lexical bundles expressed in business emails were identified and compared across the three groups. The results showed that lexical bundles were related to the extent to which formality and politeness were expressed in written business communications. The advanced business English learners and working professionals used more structural and functional characteristics of lexical bundles that are characteristic of written conventions than did intermediate business English learners. Both intermediate and advanced learner groups used functionally different lexical bundles from those produced by the working professionals.
“请让我知道”
词汇束是经常重复出现的单词序列(如所见),是语篇的组成部分。这项基于语料库的研究调查了三组作者在商务邮件中使用的四词词汇束:中级商务英语学习者、高级商务英语学习者和职业人士。我们发现并比较了三组商务邮件中表达的词汇束的显著结构和功能特征。结果表明,词汇束与书面商务交际中表达形式和礼貌的程度有关。高级商务英语学习者和职场人士比中级商务英语学习者更多地使用具有书面约定特征的词汇束的结构和功能特征。中级和高级学习者群体使用的词汇包与专业工作者使用的词汇包在功能上有所不同。
