The morpho-syntax of Standard Scottish English: Questionnaire-based insights
With empirical research on Standard Scottish English showing a bias towards phonology, the aim of the current study is to contribute to the morpho-syntactic documentation of this variety. Relying on Standard Southern British English for comparison, we concentrate on four eWAVE features on which the varieties have been noted to diverge: (i) youse as a second person plural pronoun, (ii) extended uses of the progressive, (iii) epistemic mustn’t , an…
Collaborative Negotiation of Reactance in Climate Activism. Freedom Restoration Strategies in Face-to-Face Interactions
Climate change has become a central topic in contemporary societal debates, often emphasizing the urgent need for collective action by mobilizing emotional categories. One measure individuals can take to beneft Earth’s climate is to limit practices that produce greenhouse gases, but it is largely unknown whether this willingness to self-restrict translates into actual behavior. This paper addresses this question through an audiovisual study in wh…
Inconsequential female autonomy in misogynic hate communication: Male dominance, dehumanization, and sexualization in digital collaborative storytelling
This paper explores the construction of masculinity and femininity in misogynic hate communication through the lens of Membership Categorization Analysis, focusing on language use and the interrelations of sexuality, violence, and power dynamics in collaborative storytelling. Analyzing German-language online interactions where male participants role-play both male and female characters, the study examines how gendered narratives are co-constructe…
Coordinating multiactivity transitions in dance rehearsals: Spatial configurations and instructional practices
This study explores the mechanisms behind activity transitions in dance rehearsals, focusing on how participants manage multiactivities in instructional situations. The research uses multimodal conversation analysis to examine the spatial configurations and interactional practices of a professional choreographer and two nonprofessional dancers. The analysis reveals how participants create activity transitions, mobilize resources, and maintain con…
Overcoming Blanking: Verbal and Visual Features of Prompting in Theatre Rehearsals
In theatre rehearsals, actors can occasionally be seen getting stuck in the play text, which is called blanking. To overcome such textual difficulties and continue with the given text, a prompter can verbalize the line in question, thus contributing to an actor’s word search by prompting. The paper focuses on interactional practices by which prompters and actors interactionally resolve blanking situations. This study’s data comprises a case colle…
One, two, three: Coordinating and projecting simultaneous start and end of joint actions in drills of rescue activities in mass casualty incidents
Temporal procedures of mutual alignment and synchronization in collaborative meaning-making activities in a dance rehearsal
Synchrony is a members' interactional solution for dealing with multiple relevant interactional tasks simultaneously when working on two or more separate, perceptual, and equally relevant projects, e. g., when dancing while pointing out a feature of the ongoing dance. This paper focuses on moments in which participants engage in joint meaning-making to identify, negotiate, and implement displayed multimodal gestalts of the choreography. Three tem…
The relationship between citations and the linguistic traits of specific academic discourse communities identified by using social network analysis
For a research article (RA) to be accepted, not only for publication, but also by its readers, it must display proficiency in the content, methodologies and discourse conventions of its specific discipline. While numerous studies have investigated the linguistic characteristics of different research disciplines, none have utilised Social Network Analysis techniques to identify communities prior to analysing their language use. This study aims to …
Erzählen inszenieren: Ein Theatermonolog als multimodale Leistung des Interaktionsensembles auf der Probebühne
Narrating is a crucial activity in theatre rehearsals. Through this activity, narratives are performed, expanded, reinterpreted, or even completely improvised. The communicative practices used by theatre professionals to develop a play as a theatrical narrative have rarely been researched, both in linguistics and theatre studies. Therefore, this paper addresses how actors, directors, and other members of a theatre production collectively develop …
Modality in Contemporary English
This book offers original theoretical accounts and a wealth of descriptive information concerning modality in present-day English. At the same time, it provides fresh impetus to more general linguistic issues such as grammaticalization, colloquialization, or the interplay between sociolinguistic and syntactic constraints. The articles fall into four sections: (a) the semantics and pragmatics of core modal verbs; (b) the status of emerging modal i…
Emerging English Modals: A Corpus-Based Study of Grammaticalization
This work is essentially based on grammaticalization theory – a branch of linguistics which has gained prominence since the 1980s. It focuses on the interaction between diachrony and synchrony, langue and parole or, for that matter, competence and performance, I–language and Ε–language. It does not see these levels as distinct linguistic domains, as much structurally oriented work does. It is important for the present purposes that such an intera…

Modals and Periphrastics in English: An Investigation into the Semantic Correspondence between Certain English Modal Verbs and Their Periphrastic Equivalents
English has several periphrastic verbal forms that are semantically close to particular modal verbs and perform suppletive functions in relation to them. After an exploration of the properties of potential periphrastic forms, this study investigates the nature of the relationship between the modals must, should, will and can and various semantically close periphrastics. The focus is on the pragmatic interpretation of the items compared, with some…
