This book presents the multifunctional nature of pragmatic discourse markers in English and Catalan oral narratives from the point of view of text linguistics and contrastive analysis. It is argued that English and Catalan markers are distributed and operate differently at four different levels in the varied discourse structures of the text, i.e. at the ideational, the rhetorical, the sequential, and the inferential levels. The results confirm the distinctions in functional-systemic levels, and indicate that the nature of the two languages has a direct influence on the presence and nature of markers in the texts. The study is built up on a corpus of English and Catalan elicited narratives of native speakers, adopting the sociolinguistic Labovian framework adapted to the situation of educated adults. The study results in a better understanding of the contribution of pragmatic markers to the organization and the interpretation of oral texts, bringing insights from relevance and cognitive approaches to text structure, and moving from descriptive to theoretical levels of analysis and discussion.

The future of English linguistics as envisaged by the editors of Topics in English Linguistics lies in empirical studies, which integrate work in English linguistics into general and theoretical linguistics on the one hand, and comparative linguistics on the other. The TiEL series features volumes that present interesting new data and analyses, and above all fresh approaches that contribute to the overall aim of the series, which is to further outstanding research in English linguistics. For further publications in English linguistics see also our Dialects of English book series. To discuss your book idea or submit a proposal, please contact Natalie Fecher.

In the field of Second Language Acquisition (SLA), the acquisition of pragmatic competence has received far less attention that grammatical competence. Early focus on the acquisition of pragmatic competence has often centered on speech acts or conventional expressions. Discourse markers, also known as discourse particles, pragmatic particles and pragmatic markers, have received increasing attention over the last twenty years. These "little words", are features of informal oral discourse and can contribute greatly to discourse cohesion and interlocutor interaction. Native speakers of French employ them extensively, and without them, discourse can seem stilted, unnatural or be difficult to follow. Despite their importance to communicative competence, they are largely ignored in the foreign language classroom and are generally presumed to be nearly un-acquirable without extensive immersion experience. And even with advanced language proficiency and extensive immersion experience, prior research has largely concluded that learners cannot or do not employ discourse markers like native speakers. This dissertation attempts to respond to this presumed limitation of foreign language (classroom) learners in examining the interlanguage of learners at three different proficiency levels. The 38 learners and 12 native speakers participated in an unstructured interview and completed three tasks: a narrative film retell, a film discussion and role-play scenarios, which were transcribed, coded and analyzed for their discourse marker use. The study identified discourse markers first by their function rather than from a predetermined list. The resulting inventory of discourse markers was then analyzed for frequency, variety and the range of functions expressed as learner proficiency increased. Results indicate that the frequency and variety of discourse markers produced does in general increase with proficiency. But interestingly, in concentrating on the functions expressed, we are able to observe shifts in discourse marker use for particular functions as the learner's lexicon expands to include a wider range of discourse markers. Ultimately learners make extensive use of the discourse markers lexically available to them to perform a wide variety of functions. They then modify and expand these functions as more discourse markers are added to their lexicon.
