  • Do Formal Stance Strategies Reveal Disciplinary Variation in Professional Scientific Writing

    Open AccessEkaterina Smirnova, Javier Pérez GuerraARTICLEInternational Journal of Applied…2025Referências: 4

    Stance in academic discourse has been extensively studied, with numerous investigations indicating that its expression varies across disciplines, depending on the authors’ intention to either enhance or diminish their voice or presence (e.g., It seems fairly certain vs. This is based on the belief that... ). This paper hypothesises that stance can be viewed as a strictly structural or formal linguistic mechanism in academic discourse, which can o…

  • A constructionalist account of why -fragments and Mad Magazine sentences

    Open AccessYOLANDA FERNÁNDEZ-PENA, Javier Pérez GuerraARTICLEEnglish Language and Linguistics2024

    This article focuses on two fragmentary constructions in English: why -fragments (WFs), such as Why (deal with) why -fragments? , and Mad Magazine sentences (MMs), such as (Me) paint the house purple? While both types can be equivalent in meaning to their corresponding fully fledged interrogative sentences, they can also be used to convey a specific nuance of scepticism regarding a particular proposition. To explore the specific nuance enriching …

  • Ellipsis

    Evelyn Gandón-Chapela, Javier Pérez Guerra et al.ARTICLEThe Linguistic Review2016

    Following an introduction to ellipsis and its consequences both for communication and for the theory of grammar, this paper addresses a number of issues which have been debated in the linguistic literature on ellipsis, namely structure, identity and licensing. This study brings to the readers’ attention the effects which such conditions have for the study of ellipsis in different languages as well as their constraints within the generative framew…

  • 'These hands, they are apt enough to dislocate and tear thy flesh'

    Open AccessJavier Pérez Guerra, David Tizón-CoutoARTICLEZAS Papers in Linguistics2004

    As part of a major project on the syntactic organisation of written discourse in the recent history of the English language, this paper tackles the distribution of sentences comprising left-dislocated constituents in a corpus of texts from late Middle English onwards. Once the phenomenon of left dislocation has been properly defined, this investigation will concentrate on the analysis of the corpus in the following directions: (i) statistical evo…

  • Profaning Margery Kempe's tomb or the application of a Constraint-Grammar Parser to a late Middle English text

    Dolores González-Álvarez, Javier Pérez Guerra et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of Corpus…2004

    The aim of this paper is to investigate the extent of grammatical variation between late Middle English and Present-day English. To that end, we compare the automatic output which the English Constraint Grammar Parser (ENGCG-2) offers of an updated medieval text from The Book of Margery Kempe and its corresponding modern version. In the first half of the paper we focus on the description of the parser. This system parses every constituent and ass…
