Abstract:

Examines the social functions of attitude dative pronouns in four Arabic
dialects 

Analysing data from a variety of sources, including soap operas, movies,
plays, talk shows and other audiovisual material, this book examines attitude
datives - pragmatic markers that deal with interpersonal attitudes and
relations - in Levantine Arabic. It examines four types of attitude dative in
context to deepen our understanding of the interaction between social
dimensions and pragmatic markers. Using data from Syrian, Lebanese, Jordanian
and Palestinian dialects it provides a valuable non-European perspective on
language use.

* Documents the phenomenon of attitude datives in four Levantine Arabic
dialects

* Utilises data from a variety of sources including soap operas, movies,
plays, talk shows

* Examines four types of attitude datives: topic/affectee-oriented,
speaker-oriented, hearer-oriented, and subject-oriented

* Analyses the evaluative and relational functions of attitude datives as
interpersonal pragmatic markers in their social contexts

The print edition of this book is distributed in North America by Oxford
University Press under the Edinburgh University Press imprint and with the
Edinburgh ISBNs.
