The present study of discourse particles draws upon data from the London-Lund Corpus to show how the methods and tools of corpora can sharpen their description. The first part of the book provides a picture of the state of the art in discourse particle studies and introduces the theory and methodology for the analysis in the second part of the book. Discourse particles are analysed as elements which have been grammaticalised and as a result have certain properties and uses. The importance of linguistic and contextual cues such as text type, position in the discourse, prosody and collocation for analysing discourse particles is illustrated. The following chapters deal with specific discourse particles (now, oh, just, sort of, and that sort of thing, actually) on the basis of their empirical analysis in the London-Lund Corpus. Examples and extended extracts from many different text types are provided to illustrate what discourse particles are doing in discourse. 410 0$aStudies in corpus linguistics ;$vv. 10. 606 $aEnglish language$xParticles 606 $aEnglish language$xDiscourse analysis 606 $aComputational linguistics 615 0$aEnglish language$xParticles. 615 0$aEnglish language$xDiscourse analysis. 615 0$aComputational linguistics. 676 $a401/.41 700 $aAijmer$b Karin$0467035 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910960989503321 996 $aEnglish discourse particles$91002934 997 $aUNINA
