Abstract:

In the present study the use of thanking formulae is examined across different
genres and varieties of English. Data is taken from the British National
Corpus and the Wellington Corpus of Spoken New Zealand English.

Employing a form-to-function mapping, thanking formulae are not only analysed
quantitatively, but also qualitatively accounting for local contexts and
genre. Additionally, the status of thanking formulae is examined in the most
prominent models of politeness, and the interpersonal relation amongst the
interlocutors is investigated. The first part is devoted to a variational
analysis, which is supplemented by a genre perspective in the second part. The
findings of the study contribute new insights to research on thanking
(formulae), politeness, variational pragmatics and media discourse.

Linguistic Field(s): Discourse Analysis
