Abstract:

This pioneering volume lays out a set of methodological principles to guide
the description of interpersonal grammar in different languages. It compares
interpersonal systems and structures across a range of world languages,
showing how discourse, interpersonal relationships between the speakers, and
the purpose of their communication, all play a role in shaping the grammatical
structures used in interaction. Following an introduction setting out these
principles, each chapter focuses on a particular language - Khorchin
Mongolian, Mandarin, Tagalog, Pitjantjatjara, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese,
British Sign Language and Scottish Gaelic – and explores mood, polarity,
tagging, vocation, assessment and comment systems. The book provides a model
for functional grammatical description that can be used to inform work on
system and structure across languages as a foundation for functional language
typology.
