Causal Chaining and the Active/Passive Ration in Science Texts
In this contribution, a number of constructions of the type X CAUSE Y (and its morphosyntactic variants) are investigated under the perspective that the causer and the caused (and perhaps the causee) stand in a causal relationship but also in a relationship of different degrees of agency. The most obvious syntactic signature of this is the difference between active and passive sentences. It also offers the advantage to be quantifi ed and examined…
A Register Approach to Analogy in Science Texts
In this paper, a comparative approach was pursued to show differences but also remarkable similarities between the application of analogy in popular science texts and in specialized science texts. Setting out from an initial hypothesis that popular texts use forms of analogy that lend themselves to direct interpretation and high accessibility, we try to show that actual specialized science discourse could benefi t from simpler and more versatile …
The ‘Australian interview tune’ in Australian English interviews
The question of the omnipresence of the HRT in Australian English (AusE) is investigated upon a sample of a mixed AusE-AmE (American English) radio interview. The investigation focuses on the distribution of HRT events in the interview by Australian speakers interspersed with the AmE speech of the interviewee. It tries to answer the question whether a non-HRT speaker triggers a reduction of HRT events on the side of the interviewer. The fi ndings…
Register differentiation in East African English
The article examines register variation in East African English by submitting the East African component of the International Corpus of English (ICE) to a complete multidimensional analysis (Biber 1988). A six-factor model was extracted using 67 linguistic features (Biber 1988). The results show that the extent of register variation is not less in ICE-East Africa than in Biber (1988). However, East African English displays unique stylistic featur…
Conceptualization specifics in East African English
Setting out from a cognitive perspective, lexical-semantic content of verbal constructions in British and East African English will be quantitatively and qualitatively evaluated according to their componential profiles (conflation) in large collections of texts like the ICE corpora. Following landmark research by Talmy (1985) we will recognize motion, manner, path, and goal as components of event semantics. Results will be investigated concerning…
