A Basic Discourse Unit is bound by the mapping of a syntactic (dependency) structure and a major intonation unit, giving rise to different types of discourse units (congruent, syntax-bound, intonation-bound, regulatory). Focusing on the discourse units' Left Peripheral Elements, which are again defined in syntactic and prosodic terms, we show that they fulfil different discourse structuring roles.Pragmatics & beyond ;v. 250.Romance languagesSyntaxRomance languagesGrammar, HistoricalRomance languagesDiscourse analysisRomance languagesConversation analysisRomance languagesSyntax.Romance languagesGrammar, Historical.Romance languagesDiscourse analysis.Romance languagesConversation analysis.440/.045Pons Bordería SalvadorMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910787131903321Discourse segmentation in Romance languages3836227UNINA
