It is a discourse strategy which is used to reduce commitment to the force or truth of an utterance to achieve an appropriate pragmatic effect. In recent years hedges have therefore attracted increased attention in Pragmatics and Applied Linguistics, with studies approaching the concept of hedging from various perspectives, such as speech act - and politeness theory, genre-specific investigations, interactional pragmatics, and studies of vague language. The present volume provides an up-to-date overview of current research on the topic by bringing together studies from a variety of fields. The contributions span a range of different languages, investigate the use of hedges in different communicative settings and text types, and consider all levels of linguistic analysis from prosody to morphology, syntax and semantics. What unites the different studies in this volume is a corpus-based approach, in which various theoretical concepts and categories are applied to, and tested against, actual language data. This allows for patterns of use to be uncovered which have previously gone unnoticed and provides valuable insights for the adjustment and fine-tuning of existing categories. The usage-based approach of the investigations therefore offers new theoretical and descriptive perspectives on the context-dependent nature and multifunctionality of hedges. 410 0$aStudies in Pragmatics$v9. 606 $aHedge (Linguistics)$vCongresses 606 $aEuphemism$vCongresses 606 $aPragmatics$vCongresses 615 0$aHedge (Linguistics) 615 0$aEuphemism 615 0$aPragmatics 676 $a332.64524 701 $aKaltenbo?ck$b Gunther$01615927 701 $aMihatsch$b Wiltrud$0629208 701 $aSchneider$b Stefan$0317621 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910954231203321 996 $aNew approaches to hedging$94319028 997 $aUNINA LEADER 00710oas 2200229z- 450 001 9910991188503321 005 20260218110346.0 035 $a(CKB)110985822449226 035 $a(DE-599)ZDB3211325-0 035 $a(DE-599)ZDB3211325-0 035 $a(DE-599)3211325-0 035 $a(EXLCZ)99110985822449226 100 $a20121017cuuuuuuuu -u- - 101 0 $aeng 200 $aActa geodaetica, geophysica et montanistica Academiae Scientiarum Hungaricae 311 08$a0001-5679 606 $aPhysics$xAstronomy 615 4$aPhysics$xAstronomy 906 $aJOURNAL 912 $a9910991188503321 996 $aActa geodaetica, geophysica et montanistica Academiae Scientiarum Hungaricae$94348482 997 $aUNINA
