As a whole, despite – or possibly because of – its vagueness, contrast has proved to be a useful\u0000 heuristic tool for characterizing discourse cohesion phenomena. This paper focuses on results from our research concerning\u0000 cohesion phenomena in elicited discourse in Romance (Italian, French) and Germanic (German, Dutch) languages and aims to offer a\u0000 more precise characterization of contrast against several variation parameters. We take into consideration earlier work on three\u0000 tasks (Finite Story, Polarity-Switch Dialogues, Map Task) and add a new one\u0000 (Spot the Difference). The comparison between the results allows us to disentangle the following variables:\u0000 information units involved in the contrast relation; discourse conditions (monologue vs. dialogue); speakers’ access to\u0000 information (shared vs. non-shared); effect of contrast on information in the common ground (alternative maintained vs. rejected).\u0000 The aim is to achieve a more fine-grained definition of contrast relations, which allows us to identify and characterize the\u0000 divergent behavior of Romance and Germanic languages, and to relate intra- and crosslinguistic differences revealed by speakers’\u0000 preferences in speech with structural specificities of the two language groups.","PeriodicalId":44232,"journal":{"name":"Functions of Language","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-01-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43981012","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Following the second pathway, ‘say’ may become grammaticalized into a quotative particle. On neither pathway is ‘say’\u0000 grammaticalized into a complementizer. It is proposed that cross-linguistically so-called ‘say’ complementizers, including the\u0000 alleged Chinese complementizer shuō, are more likely to be not complementizers but rather quotative\u0000 particles.","PeriodicalId":44232,"journal":{"name":"Functions of Language","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-11-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48315904","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The data comprises transcripts of two focus group discussions and the disputation\u0000 sections of a corpus of 53 applied linguistics doctoral defense sessions gathered from 14 Iranian state universities between 2019\u0000 and 2021. The findings suggest that self-denigration depends to a great extent on the role of the participants in a disputation,\u0000 and it is used before or after a criticism or a response to criticism. The analysis of the data revealed that self-denigration as\u0000 a sign of respectfulness and modesty in a defense contributes to social decorum, diffidence, coercive self-deprecation, contrived\u0000 modesty, or flamboyance. This study highlights the importance of self-denigration in the oral academic discourse of EFL defense\u0000 sessions and has pedagogical implications for oral academic literacy practices.","PeriodicalId":44232,"journal":{"name":"Functions of Language","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49668668","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The lexical approach emphasizes the role of verb frequency in\u0000 determining a verb’s distributional bias within a sentence, whereas the entrenchment hypothesis highlights the conjoined roles of the frequency information from both a verb and an argument structure construction. The present study tests these accounts by\u0000 investigating Korean speakers’ interpretation of two dative patterns in Korean (Dative–Accusative and Accusative–Accusative).\u0000 Through the analysis of a large-scale corpus, we calculated the frequency of each dative pattern as well as the frequency of\u0000 dative verbs occurring therein. Using this information, we conducted an acceptability judgment task with Korean speakers by\u0000 manipulating the dative type and the verb frequency. The results showed that the speakers’ acceptability rating behavior was\u0000 affected by the interaction between the verb and construction frequency such that highly entrenched verb–construction\u0000 combinations were evaluated to be more acceptable. Our finding supports the entrenchment hypothesis that emphasizes the conjoined\u0000 roles of usage frequency of verbs and constructions in sentence comprehension.","PeriodicalId":44232,"journal":{"name":"Functions of Language","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-10-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49165799","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It first offers a summary of the early ideas and considers challenges made by others. The study responds to these challenges through new analysis of multiparty discourse. The paper discusses revisions to the model based on these challenges drawing on the iterative analysis conducted and considers other points relevant to multiparty discourse. The data is drawn from transcribed video recordings of small groups of 4 to 5 year-old children’s peer-led dialogic interactions as they engage in role-play. In addition to the development of Exchange Structure theory, this new analysis sheds light on the nature of negotiation within multiparty discourse and the dynamics of negotiation by young children in this playful context.","PeriodicalId":44232,"journal":{"name":"Functions of Language","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49625805","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
