The representation of motion in discourse
Quoting and reporting across languages
This paper reports on a cross-linguistic corpus-based investigation of linguistic strategies of quoting and reporting of speech and thought across six genetically unrelated languages (Arabic, English, Dagaare, Hindi, Spanish and Japanese). Specifically, the study draws on Michael Halliday's concept of projection that covers the traditional categories of quoting and reporting as a type of logico-semantic relation. The study also examines projectio…
Figure and GROUND in the construal of motion
This paper investigates the specific kind of spatial details that are given attention in the construal of motion in different registers. Essentially, we examine six text types from four registers-differentiated in terms of field of activity into enabling, expounding, recreating, and reporting. We use a functional registerial approach developed within systemic functional linguistics and show that each register has its own preferences in terms of w…
Epistemicity, social identity and politeness marking
This article examines the pragmatic uses of the verbal inflections in Bajjika, a Bihari language within the "eastern" group of the Indo-Aryan family. Previous studies have shown that Bajjika has a very complex system of verb-agreement, which is typical of Bihari languages but atypical of other Indo-Aryan languages. Of particular interest here is that Bajjika allows a maximum of two person-agreement slots in its verbal morphology: the first slot f…
The construal of space in different registers

Although Bajjika is spoken by a significant segment of the population of Bihar, it has no institutional or educational role in the community or government. Little is known about this language in terms of…
