These resources contribute to overall coherence and cohesion, which speakers create and maintain interactively as they build on each other's contributions. The study is cross-linguistic, drawing on parallel corpora of task-oriented dialogues between dyads of native speakers of English and Spanish. The framework of the investigation is the analysis of speech genres and their staging; the analysis shows that each stage in the dialogues exhibits different thematic, rhetorical, and cohesive relations. The main contributions of the book are: a corpus-based characterization of a spoken genre (task-oriented dialogue); the compilation of a body of analysis tools for generic analysis; application of English-based analyses to Spanish and comparison between the two languages; and a study of the characteristics of each generic stage in task-oriented dialogue.Pragmatics & beyond ;new ser. 129.English languageDiscourse analysisEnglish languageGrammar, ComparativeSpanishSpanish languageGrammar, ComparativeEnglishSpanish languageDiscourse analysisEnglish languageSpoken EnglishSpanish languageSpoken SpanishConversationEnglish languageDiscourse analysis.English languageGrammar, ComparativeSpanish.Spanish languageGrammar, ComparativeEnglish.Spanish languageDiscourse analysis.English languageSpoken English.Spanish languageSpoken Spanish.Conversation.420.1/41IM 3270rvkTaboada Maria Teresa1689211MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910975401503321Building coherence and cohesion4344663UNINA02759nam 2200637 a 450 991101914340332120200520144314.01-299-18985-71-118-45393-X10.1002/9781118453988(CKB)2670000000327913(EBL)947728(SSID)ssj0000826853(PQKBManifestationID)11434333(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000826853(PQKBWorkID)10808932(PQKB)11010193(MiAaPQ)EBC947728(CaBNVSL)mat06462203(IDAMS)0b00006481cd5eff(IEEE)6462203(OCoLC)798809964(PPN)257508333(EXLCZ)99267000000032791320120706d2013 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrReinforcement learning and approximate dynamic programming for feedback control /edited by Frank L.
