Modes of Expressing Finland-Swedishness
An overview of the establishment of Swedish as one of the two national languages of Finland is provided, followed by an examination of the ambiguous role of Swedish in Finland today. Proceeding from the perspective of Finland-Swedishness—the (imagined) community of Finland Swedes—the article discusses standard Finland Swedish, the traditional Swedish dialect areas, and Finland-Swedish sign language. The closeness to and contacts with speakers of …
Risk Discourse and Responsibility
The widespread view that risk is highly relevant in late modern societies has also meant that the very study of risk has become central in many areas of social studies. The key aim of this book is to establish Risk Discourse as a field of research of its own in language studies. Risk Discourse is introduced as a field that not only targets elements of risk, safety and security, but crucially requires aspects of responsibility for in-depth analysi…

Socio-onomastics
The volume seeks to establish socio-onomastics as a field of linguistic inquiry not only within sociolinguistics, but also, and in particular, within pragmatics. The linguistic study of names has a very long history, but also a history sometimes fraught with skepticism, and thus often neglected by linguists in other fields. The volume takes on the challenge of instituting onomastic study into linguistics and pragmatics by focusing on recent trend…
Argumentation in discourse and grammar
This chapter explores the intersection of argumentation theory and discourse analysis, examining how argumentation structures are manifested in grammar and discourse. It argues that argumentation is not merely a rhetorical device but a fundamental aspect of language use, shaping how we construct meaning and interact with others. The authors analyze various discourse phenomena, including connectives, modality, and evidentials, demonstrating how th…

Pragmatics in practice
Language attitudes and the ideology of the Nordic
This article discusses the rise and the current standing of “Norden” (the Nordic societies) as an imagined community (Anderson, Imagined communities, Verso, 1991). The ideology of Norden as a coherent community rests on the one hand on the perceived mutual intelligibility of the Scandinavian languages, used as mother tongue or as lingua franca. On the other hand the ideology of Norden rests on a sense of historical unity. Historically, the ideolo…
The pragmatics of interaction
Grammar, Meaning and Pragmatics
The ten volumes of Handbook of Pragmatics Highlights focus on the most salient topics in the field of pragmatics, thus dividing its wide interdisciplinary spectrum in a transparent and manageable way. While other volumes select philosophical, cognitive, cultural, social, variational, interactional, or discursive points of view, this fifth volume looks at the field of linguistic pragmatics from a primarily grammatical angle. That is, it asks in wh…

You Know
You Know
The basic function the expression you know serves in conversational discourse is said to be that of a pragmatic particle used when the speaker wants the addressee to accept as mutual knowledge (or at least be cooperative with respect to) the propositional content of his utterance. The fact that you know is even used when the addressee is assumed not to know what the speaker is talking about, suggests that it functions at the deference level of po…
