Asymmetrical Roles and Conflicting Expectations in Institutional Talk: An Analysis of Verbal Autopsy
This study addresses the research gap in doctor-death informant interactions within verbal autopsy (VA) contexts, examining these interactions as unequal encounters through institutional interaction research. The study aims to analyse the content, structure, and function of question-and-answer exchanges in VA interviews, explore conflicting frames, and identify opposing discursive strategies. It connects microanalysis to the broader sociocultural…
General Attitudes, Intelligibility, and Acceptability: How Philippine English Is Perceived by Filipino-Americans
Despite the growing acceptance of the varieties of English, standard language ideology continues to cause some to be valorized and denigrated. This paper examines the attitudes of Filipino-Americans within an inner-circle English variety zone towards Philippine English (PhE), focusing on its status, development, lexicon, intelligibility, and acceptability. The study surveyed 113 Filipino-American speakers of American English (AmE) who were famili…
Regional Variability and Domain-Specific Acceptance of Philippine English Expressions Among Younger Filipinos
Philippine English (PhE) is a dynamic variety of the English language influenced by local languages and cultures. Despite its widespread use, PhE acceptability studies have often focused on Metro Manila, neglecting regional variations. This study aims to explore the acceptability of PhE expressions or Filipinisms across different regions and communication domains among younger Filipinos, addressing the gap in regional representation in previous r…
How the Pandemic Fuels Linguistic Change: Lexical Innovations in L1 and L2 English Varieties
Wars and conquests have always opened the floodgates of new words and meanings into the lexicon of the English language. Another kind of war that opens the floodgates for the passage of neologisms into the English language is the war on health during epidemics or pandemics. The present study utilized the News On the Web (NOW) corpus of English-corpora.org to (1) produce a word-list of COVID-19 pandemic language classified as medical, economic, po…

Public apologies are so prevalent in our social lives that they have become a subject of scholarly investigation all over the globe. The present study, which involves coding, frequency counting, and qualitative analysis, examines the strategic aspects of 16 public apologies issued to Filipino apologizees. The results of our analysis indicate that apologizers often choose varied knowledge types and draw upon presuppositions to strategically omit d…
Managing Readers' Impression of Research Article Abstracts Through Metadiscourse
A plethora of research on academic discourse analysis has supplied empirical findings that readers' impression of texts can be managed through the utilization of metadiscoursal resources linked to the social intentions and practices of academic communities. However, the writers’ efforts in meeting the readers’ expectations through metadiscourse in the specific rhetorical moves of abstracts across disciplines have not been much researched. The stu…
Gendered and genderless constructions of religious identity in a Charismatic community of practice
A plethora of studies that account for the differential use of language by men and women have explained why such differences exist from the standpoint of Deficit, Dominance and Difference models, emphasising male and female dichotomy or male domination over women. The present study aims at filling a gap in language and gender research by underpinning its analysis with a social constructionist paradigm which views language and its interaction with…
Communicative Aspects of Multilingual Code Switching in Computer-Mediated Communication
The quintessential role of language has been punctiliously studied relative to intercultural communication, cultural heritage, social development, education, identity construction and many more domains. One forum wherein language is investigated is the Computer-mediated Communication (CMC) which provides a fertile ground for linguistic and sociolinguistic analyses. The present study aims at investigating the preferred codes used in code switching…
A Pragmatic Analysis of Discourse Particles in Filipino Computer Mediated Communication
As the English language continues to evolve through time, many of its structures and functions changed, which made it even realizable that the smallest unit in a discourse can play a crucial role in communication. Hence, this present study is an attempt to investigate the phenomenon and further delve into the discourse-pragmatic functions of discourse particles (DPs) in digital genres, particularly on Facebook, since DPs are commonly used by Fili…
