Abstract:

Emotive Interjections in British English: A corpus-based study on variation in
acquisition, function and usage constitutes the first in-depth corpus-based
study on the use of emotive interjections in Present Day British English. In a
novel approach, it systematically distinguishes between child and adult
speakers, providing new insights into how they use Ow!, Ouch!, Ugh!, Yuck!,
Whoops!, Whoopsadaisy! and Wow! in everyday spoken language. It studies in
detail their acquisition by children and pinpoints changes and developments in
their use throughout early childhood. The study highlights particularities
displayed by child and adult speakers in general and identifies crucial
differences regarding how adults use emotive interjections depending on
whether they are interacting with children or other adults. This book thus
offers an exhaustive overview on the functions of emotive interjections based
on thorough empirical research and will appeal to linguists concerned with
pragmatics, child language acquisition, the expression of emotion and
interjections.
