Abstract

Abstract The last three decades have witnessed increasing interest in discourse-pragmatic markers (DPMs), both with regards to their high frequency in spoken discourse and their multifunctionality in interaction. Most studies have centered on English, with studies on Danish restricted to a handful of previous interactional discourse analyses. This paper is a preliminary investigation of the Danish word sådan (commonly glossed as ‘such’ or ‘like this/that’). A qualitative, form-based, discourse analytic approach is undertaken on over 40 minutes of naturally occurring Danish talk to argue that sådan qualifies as a DPM. In service of textual, subjective, and intersubjective macro-functions, sådan illustrates; exemplifies; marks hesitation; approximates a quantity; mitigates, hedges, or softens; and allows self-correction or self-repair. These findings are discussed in terms of their implications for sådan’s place in the Danish DPM system and our understanding of DPMs across languages.
Vi snakker sådan:丹麦语篇语用标记分析
摘要在过去的三十年里,人们对话语语用标记物(DPM)越来越感兴趣,无论是因为它们在口语话语中的频率很高,还是因为它们在互动中的多功能性。大多数研究都集中在英语上,对丹麦语的研究仅限于之前的少数互动话语分析。本文是对丹麦语单词sådan(通常被解释为“这样”或“像这样/那样”)的初步调查。对40多分钟自然发生的丹麦谈话进行了定性、基于形式的话语分析方法,以论证sådan符合DPM的资格。为了服务于文本、主观和主体间的宏观功能,sådan举例说明;例证;标志着犹豫;近似于一个量;缓解、对冲或软化;并且允许自我校正或自我修复。这些发现对sådan在丹麦DPM系统中的地位以及我们对跨语言DPM的理解产生了影响。
