Reflections on Functions of Language
The year 1994 was an important year for us Belgian systemic-functional linguists.We hosted the 21st International Systemic-Functional Congress at the University of Ghent (August 1-5).And in that same year the first issue of Functions of Language saw the light.At some point we had found out through various meetings that SFL was practised at three universities in Flanders, i.e.Antwerp, Ghent and Leuven.In Antwerp Dirk Noël's research was inspired b…
Crosslinguistic data as evidence in the grammaticalization debate
This article examines two case studies of cognate expressions in English and in French, which have developed partly in the same and partly in different directions. One case is the pair actually: actuellement, the other is the set in fact: en fait/de fait/au fait. Monolingual research on their present-day meanings and the study of their translation paradigms bring to light semantic and pragmatic overlap as well as differences between the members o…
Positive Appraisal” as a Core Meaning of well
This article unravels the complexity of the historical development of the pragmatic marker well. Using data from three historical corpora (Helsinki Corpus of English Texts, Corpus of Early English Correspondence and Corpus of English Dialogues) a detailed description is provided of the contextualised semantic-pragmatic meanings of well in different periods. The study shows how the use of well in specific contexts allowed the form to gradually ado…

Almost certainly and most definitely
Those Are Only Slogans
This article examines a newspaper and a television debate between a philosopher and two politicians of the extreme rightwing party the Flemish Bloc ( Vlaams Blok) in Flanders (Belgium). The debates took place in the summer and autumn of 2004, respectively, after the party had been condemned for racism by the Belgian court. The debates center around the fundamental question asked by the philosopher to what extent and in what way the party has aban…

Pragmatic Markers in Contrast
Building on the first volume in the Studies in Pragmatics series which clearly set out the differences and similarities in approaches to discourse markers, Pragmatic Markers in Contrast continues the debate through offering a unique and thorough examination of the methods and theories for studying pragmatic markers cross-linguistically. As a result of internationalisation and new developments in linguistics there has been an increasing interest i…
Functional approaches to discourse
A model and a methodology for the study of pragmatic markers
Grammatical Metaphor
Since the 1980s, metaphor has received much attention in linguistics in general. Within Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) the area of 'grammatical metaphor' has become increasingly more important. This volume aims to raise and debate problematic issues in the study of lexico-grammatical metaphor, and to foreground the potential of further study in the field. There is a need to highlight the SFL perspective on metaphor; other traditions focus …
The discourse particle well and its equivalents in Swedish and Dutch
The aim of the article is to make a contribution to the description of the meaning and functions of well by looking at its translations into Swedish and Dutch. In order to study well cross-linguistically we have used electronic translation corpora. Our account of well is based on Bakhtin's notion of heteroglossia as it is integrated within the systems of modality and evidentiality (White 1999, 2000). A comparison is made with earlier proposals by…
I think and its Dutch equivalents in parliamentary debates
Carita Paradis. Degree Modifiers of Adjectives in Spoken British English
By Word of Mouth
This volume contains seven synchronic and diachronic empirical investigations into the expression and conceptualization of linguistic action in English, focusing on figurative extensions. The following issues are explored: • Source domains, and their relation to the complexities of linguistic action as a target domain. • The role of axiological parameter, the experiential grounding of metaphors expressing value judgements and the part played by i…
Modal (un)certainty in political discourse
Image-Building Through Modality
This paper looks at the way in which politicians use radio interviews to present an image of themselves as fully committed to their cause. In previous research the focus has been on strategies of evasion which are developed by interviewees in response to face-threatening questions. In this article I aim to complement the picture of the hedging politician by concentrating on the equally important linguistic devices employed for conveying intellect…
