Abstract:

Spoken language is characterized by the occurrence of linguistic devices such
as discourse markers (e.g. "so, well, you know, I mean") and other so-called
“disfluent” phenomena, which reflect the temporal nature of the cognitive
mechanisms underlying speech production and comprehension. The purpose of this
book is to distinguish between strategic vs. symptomatic uses of these markers
on the basis of their combination, function and distribution across several
registers in English and French. Through deep quantitative and qualitative
analyses of manually annotated features in the new "DisFrEn" corpus, this
usage-based study provides (i) an exhaustive portrait of discourse markers in
English and French and (ii) a scale of (dis)fluency against which different
configurations of discourse markers can be diagnosed as rather fluent or
disfluent. By bringing together discourse markers and (dis)fluency under one
coherent framework, this book is a unique contribution to corpus-based
pragmatics, discourse analysis and crosslinguistic fluency research.
