Deep structure and surface structure
This document provides an overview of syntax and generative grammar. It defines syntax as the way words are arranged to show relationships of meaning within and between sentences. Grammar is defined as the art of writing, but is now used to study language. Generative grammar uses formal rules to generate an infinite set of grammatical sentences. It distinguishes between deep structure and surface structure. Tree diagrams are used to represent syntactic structures with symbols like S, NP, VP. Phrase structure rules, lexical rules, and movement rules are components of generative grammar. Complement phrases and recursion allow sentences to be embedded within other sentences.
Discourse
Discourse analysis examines how sentences form coherent units like paragraphs and conversations. Cohesion refers to grammatical and lexical relationships between discourse elements, created through devices like reference, substitution, ellipsis, and conjunction. However, coherence depends on how people interpret a discourse based on their background knowledge and expectations. While cohesive devices link utterances, coherence involves constructing a meaningful interpretation in line with one's experience of the world.
Pragmatics (Speech Acts)
Pragmatics is the study of meaning in context and how language is used in communication. Speech act theory analyzes utterances as locutionary acts (the words spoken), illocutionary acts (the intention or force behind the words), and perlocutionary acts (the effect on the listener). There are five main speech act sets: representatives that assert facts, directives that command or request, commissives that commit the speaker to actions, expressives that convey attitudes, and declarations that bring about changes through uttering. Apologies typically involve expressing regret, taking responsibility, providing an explanation or offer to repair the situation, and promising non-recurrence. Cultural factors influence apology strategies used.
Mood
The document discusses mood in systemic functional linguistics. Mood consists of the subject and finite operator and realizes interpersonal meaning in conversation. The mood carries interpersonal functions and consists of a subject and finite element. It indicates whether a clause is declarative, interrogative, or imperative. Modality involves modalization, which expresses the probability or usuality of a proposition, or modulation, which expresses obligation or inclination of proposals.
Conversational analysis
This document discusses key concepts in conversation analysis. It defines interaction and conversation, and explains the basic structure of turn-taking in conversation. It also describes important conversational elements like pauses, overlaps, backchannels, conversational style, adjacency pairs, and preference structure. Adjacency pairs refer to expected question-answer sequences in conversations, while preference structure indicates that acceptance is a more preferred response than refusal.
Semantic Roles
This document discusses semantic roles - the roles that words play within the context of a sentence. It defines several common semantic roles including agent, theme, instrument, experiencer, location, source and goal. For each role, it provides examples of words or phrases that fulfill that role in example sentences. The roles define how different entities are involved in or affected by the actions, events, perceptions or states described by the sentences.
Discourse analysis and grammar
This document discusses various cohesive devices in language including reference, substitution, and ellipsis. It defines reference as the relationship between linguistic expressions. There are three main types of reference: personal, demonstrative, and comparative. Substitution replaces words to avoid repetition, including nominal, verbal, and clausal substitution. Ellipsis omits elements assumed to be obvious from context. Conjunctions provide links between clauses and demonstrate relationships between different parts of a text. The document provides many examples to illustrate these cohesive devices.

Pragmatic Referece and Inference
George Yule argues that words themselves do not refer to anything directly, but that reference is an act performed by people using linguistic forms. Successful reference requires collaboration between the speaker's intention to identify something and the listener's ability to recognize that intention through inference. Referring expressions provide a range of possible referents, but the context and co-text help disambiguate the intended referent. Anaphora involves subsequent references to an already introduced referent using devices like pronouns and definite noun phrases to track entities over multiple sentences.
Pragmatics: Deixis And Distance By Dr.Shadia.Pptx
Deixis refers to linguistic elements whose meaning depends on context. There are several types of deixis:
1. Person deixis refers to pronouns like I, you, he/she that indicate speaker and addressee.
2. Place deixis uses words like here and there to indicate locations relative to the speaker.
3. Time deixis references moments like now and then in relation to utterance time.
4. Discourse deixis refers back to parts of the ongoing conversation using words like before, after.
5. Social deixis encodes social relationships through honorifics and polite forms. Deictic elements are crucial for communication as their meaning relies on shared context
Clause as representation
The document discusses Systemic Functional Grammar, which views a clause as realizing three metafunctions: ideational, interpersonal, and textual. The ideational metafunction represents experiences through transitivity. The interpersonal metafunction concerns social exchanges through the mood system. The textual metafunction concerns information flow through the theme system. These metafunctions work interdependently in language.
Phrase
This document defines and provides examples of different types of phrases in English syntax, including noun phrases, verb phrases, adjective phrases, and prepositional phrases. It explains that a phrase contains a head word and dependent words, and identifies the head word to name the phrase category. The document also discusses phrase structure trees and constituency vs. dependency trees for representing sentence structure.
Semantic and other disciplines
1. Semantics studies the literal meaning of words and sentences, while pragmatics studies how meaning depends on context like speaker intentions, audience understanding, and situational factors.
2. There are three views on the relationship between semantics and pragmatics: semanticism argues pragmatics is part of semantics; pragmaticism argues semantics is part of pragmatics; complementarism argues they are distinct but complementary fields.
3. Pragmatic analysis has advantages over semantic analysis alone as it can better explain asymmetries, generalizations, and how utterances are understood in different contexts.
Discourse analysis
Discourse analysis is the study of language beyond the sentence level. It examines how linguistic and non-linguistic features like intonation, gestures, and social context influence meaning and interpretation in different types of spoken interactions like phone calls or classroom discussions as well as written texts. Discourse analysis also studies speech acts, conversation structures, and how meaning is constructed through the organization and connection of words, sentences, and larger textual patterns.

What is sociolinguistics,
Sociolinguistics is the study of how social factors such as ethnicity, gender, age, and socioeconomic class influence language. It examines how language differs between social groups and how these differences can categorize individuals. Sociolinguists study how grammar, vocabulary, and other language aspects vary depending on social context, in contrast to dialectology which focuses on language's effect on society. Key concepts in sociolinguistics include speech communities, prestige varieties, social networks, and differences in language according to class, age, gender, geography, and politeness.
Language & style
The document defines language and its key components and features. It discusses language as a tool for communication that can be analyzed based on its communicative, structural, and interactional aspects. The structures of language include specific languages as well as the underlying design plan common across languages. All languages have sound systems, words, and grammar. Style is a variation in language that reflects social identities and can be classified based on levels of formality from frozen to intimate. Factors like occasion, social class, education, age, gender, and ethnicity can influence one's language style.
Discourse analysis and grammar
The document provides an outline for a discourse analysis and grammar course. It includes sections on references, conjunction, theme and rheme, substitution and ellipsis, and tense and aspect. The document defines key terms related to discourse analysis and grammar such as anaphoric and cataphoric references, ideational and textual themes, and nominal, verbal, and clausal ellipsis. It also provides examples to illustrate concepts like conjunction types, theme and rheme, and substitution and ellipsis.
Transitivity and ideational meanings by Micheal Halliday
This document provides an overview of transitivity and its key constituents in systemic functional linguistics. It discusses the six main process types: material, behavioral, mental, verbal, relational, and existential. For each process type, it defines the key participants and provides examples. It compares material and mental processes, highlighting differences in tense usage, number of participants, nature of active participants, and ability to project. It also examines the seven circumstantial elements - extent, location, manner, cause, accompaniment, matter, and role. The summary concisely covers the main topics and process types discussed in the document.
Discourse Analysis and grammar
This document discusses various grammatical concepts related to discourse analysis and cohesion between clauses. It defines key terms like theme, rheme, reference, substitution, ellipsis, and conjunction. It provides examples and explanations of different types of reference like anaphoric, cataphoric, exophoric, and homophoric reference. It also distinguishes between substitution, ellipsis, and the different types of conjunctions like additive, adversative, temporal, and causal conjunctions. The document serves to link grammar concepts to discourse analysis and explain how grammar creates cohesion and textuality in both spoken and written language.

PRAGMATICS: COOPERATIVE PRINCIPLES
Grice proposes the cooperative principle to guide successful conversations. The cooperative principle includes four maxims: quantity, quality, relation, and manner. The maxims obligate speakers to be informative but not too brief or long, truthful, relevant to the topic, and clear. While people generally observe the maxims, there are times when maxims are violated, infringed upon, opted out of, or flouted to convey hidden meanings.
Politeness
This document discusses linguistic politeness and various models of politeness. It defines politeness as linguistic structures that express a speaker's attitude in a pragmatic rather than semantic way. Interactions involve both conveying meaning and observing social rules shaped by distance and closeness between participants. Watts groups standard behaviors like "thank you" and address terms under the term "politic behavior" which society expects in certain situations. The document outlines politeness models including Lakoff's social norm model, Leech's conversational maxim model, Fraser and Nolen's conversational contract model, and Brown and Levinson's face theory of politeness involving face-threatening acts and strategies to maintain one's own and others' positive and negative face.
Discourse and conversation
This document discusses discourse analysis techniques for analyzing spoken conversation. It focuses on conversation analysis, which examines everyday conversational interactions to understand how speakers manage turn-taking, use adjacency pairs and sequencing, display preferences, give feedback, and repair misunderstandings. The document provides examples of these conversational structures and notes they may differ across cultures. Conversation analysis involves transcribing recordings of natural conversation to closely analyze linguistic and social behaviors.
DISCOURSE AND PRAGMATICS
1) Pragmatics is essential for discourse analysis as it is impossible to analyze discourse without understanding pragmatic phenomena and how they interact.
2) Discourse analysis incorporates several sub-disciplines including pragmatics, conversation analysis, speech act theory, and ethnography of speaking.
3) Pragmatics assumes people follow a cooperative principle in communication with shared understanding of cooperation.
Discourse analysis (Linguistics Forms and Functions)
The document discusses discourse analysis and the differences between spoken and written language. It summarizes that discourse analysis focuses on language beyond the sentence level. It notes that language serves both a transactional function of expressing content and an interactional function of expressing social relations and attitudes. While spoken and written language are related, they differ in form. The document analyzes in spoken language is based on natural language utterances rather than constructed examples, and involves discovering regularities in authentic data within a context.
Theme and rheme in the english language
The document discusses the concepts of theme and rheme in the English language. It defines theme as the starting point of a clause, realized by the first element, and rheme as the additional information that provides context for the theme. There are three types of themes: textual, interpersonal, and topical. Different types of clauses, such as declarative, interrogative, and imperative sentences, have predictable patterns for their themes. The study also examines various patterns of thematic progression that link clauses together cohesively in a text.
Speech act theory
Speech act theory proposes that language is used not just to inform but also to perform actions. John Austin distinguished three acts in a speech act: the locutionary act of uttering words, the illocutionary act of conveying intended meaning, and the perlocutionary act of producing effects on listeners. John Searle later classified illocutionary acts into five categories: directives, commissives, representatives, declaratives, and expressives. Together, speech act theory explores how language is used to do things through utterances.
Nominal groups
O documento explica o que são grupos nominais, que são expressões nominais compostas por substantivos e adjetivos, com uma ordem diferente do português. Grupos nominais contêm um núcleo nominal (substantivo principal) e modificadores (adjetivos, artigos, etc). Eles localizam informações dentro de uma oração, diferentemente de verbos ou outras classes gramaticais. Exemplos demonstram como identificar grupos nominais.

Noun Groups
The document summarizes a lesson on noun groups that was presented to students. It includes examples of noun groups used in sentences and how the students identified and improved noun groups in passages. The lesson concluded by having students identify nouns, pre-modifiers, and post-modifiers in a passage about Mr. Tickle.
Nominal Group Technique
The document discusses the nominal group technique (NGT) consensus development method. NGT is a structured group process that allows a group to generate ideas and prioritize solutions. It involves individuals privately generating ideas which are then shared anonymously and discussed before private voting to rank items. The document provides examples of NGT being used to evaluate aspects of healthcare education programs, such as modules and feedback. Benefits identified are that it prevents domination, ensures equal participation, increases productivity, and provides immediate prioritized results.

Systemic Grammar
This document discusses the levels of language and structure of sentences in systemic grammar. There are three levels of language: substance, form, and situation. Sentences have two important aspects - chain (surface structure) and choice (deep structure). Chain refers to the linear order and position of words. There are five ranks along the axis of chain: morph, word, group, clause, and sentence. Groups can be nominal, verbal, prepositional, or adverbial depending on the head word. Clauses include independent and dependent clauses, with conditioning, additioning, and reported dependent clauses. The structure of a sentence includes a subject, predicate, complement, and adjunct.
Verbal Group In Systemic Grammar
Verbal group is one of the most complex areas of English grammar. It involves several systems including finiteness, modality, tense, polarity, and voice. Finiteness distinguishes between finite verbs like "eats" in independent clauses and non-finite verbs like "eating" in dependent clauses. The tense system has three terms - present, past, and future - realized through verb forms like "-s", "-ed", and "will/shall". Polarity distinguishes positive verbs from negative verbs marked by "not". Voice distinguishes between active verbs and passive verbs formed with "be" plus the past participle.
Above The Clause & Below The Cluase In Functional Grammar
This document discusses linguistic concepts related to clause structure and analysis. It defines key terms like group, phrase, clause complex, taxis, logico-semantic relationships and expansion. It provides examples of nominal groups, verbal groups, adverbial groups and conjunction groups. It also explains the different types of taxis (parataxis and hypotaxis) and logico-semantic relationships (expansion and projection). Several questions are included at the end to test understanding of the concepts covered.
Transitivity
This document provides an overview of transitivity and theme/rheme analysis in systemic functional grammar. It defines transitivity as how meaning is represented in clauses and how speakers encode their view of reality. It describes the key components of transitivity processes - processes, participants, and circumstances. It outlines six major process types: material, mental, relational, behavioral, verbal, and existential. For each process type, it defines the participants and provides examples. The document also analyzes the participants and process types used in different parts of the short story "Heroic Mother".
O grupo nominal
O documento descreve o grupo nominal, definindo-o como um conjunto de palavras centrado em um nome. Explica que um grupo nominal pode conter um artigo, nome e adjetivo, e que o nome serve como o núcleo do grupo, dando-lhe sentido.
Literature as text
Literature as Text discusses how literature attracts linguists for two reasons: it provides data that can be analyzed linguistically, but also contains data that cannot be analyzed through linguistic models. Halliday analyzes the poem "Leda and the Swan" by looking at its nominal and verbal groups. He finds the references in the poem are anaphoric, referring back to the title. Literature deviates from grammatical rules in patterns, violating categories, sub-categories, and transformational rules. While text analysis provides one way to analyze literature, it is not a complete analysis on its own.
Nominal_Group_Technique
The document discusses the Nominal Group Technique (NGT), a structured method for group brainstorming. It defines NGT and explains its importance in quality management by establishing proper benchmarking, brainstorming abilities, and an affinity diagram. The document outlines when and where to use NGT, such as when some members are more vocal than others. It provides the 5 steps to implement NGT: define topic, provide individual opinions, voice opinions, discuss notes opinions, and set priorities. In conclusion, using NGT ensures all ideas are brought forth and allows for an equal balance in discussions.

Content Analysis vs secondary analysis
This document discusses different types of data analysis methods, including content analysis and secondary data analysis. Content analysis involves breaking down written, spoken, or visual communication into common elements or themes. It requires determining the unit of analysis, indicators, and then coding the data according to those indicators. Secondary data analysis involves reanalyzing existing data collected by others. It saves costs and time but risks the data not being suitable for the new research purposes.
Basic elements of scientific concepts
The document outlines the scientific research method and provides guidance on developing mathematical models and completing a thesis. It describes the four main steps of the scientific method as observation, hypothesis, experimental testing, and predictions. Observation involves recognizing facts or occurrences, which are then used to form a hypothesis. The hypothesis is then tested experimentally, and if proven true, predictions can be made. Mathematical models, such as using equations to fit experimental data, can help test hypotheses and predictions. Following the scientific method and reporting iterations that include publishable results are keys to completing a successful thesis.
Observational methods
This document discusses observational methods used in research. There are two types of observation: nonparticipant observation where the researcher simply observes without participating, and participant observation where the researcher takes part in the activity. The researcher aims to understand context like physical surroundings, people present, and interactions. Observation allows researchers to identify patterns, see things people may not discuss, and directly experience a setting. Researchers record field notes on what they observe, photos, and audio/video. Content analysis can also study documents produced.
Types of educational_research
This document outlines different types of educational research, including quantitative and qualitative traditions. Quantitative research can be experimental, involving manipulation of factors, or nonexperimental through descriptive, comparative or correlational methods. Qualitative research involves phenomenological studies, ethnography, grounded theory or case studies. There are also four categories of educational research: basic, applied, action, and evaluation research. The document also defines key research variables and outlines the typical format for reporting research findings.
Types of research
This document outlines and compares several types of research methods: naturalistic observation, case studies, surveys, correlational studies, and psychological testing.

What isliterature
This document discusses the evolving definition of "literature" over the last 50 years. Traditionally, literature referred to imaginative writing that was not factual, but many classical works were also non-fiction. The document argues that what makes a text "literary" is subjective and dependent on how people relate to it. It was traditionally based on language use but this excluded many texts. The literary "canon" was constructed by those in power to include mainly works by white European males, marginalizing other groups. There is no objective value or essence to literary works and their status changes over time based on changing social contexts and readers.

Webinar: Designing a schema for a Data Warehouse
Are you new to data warehouses (DWH)? Do you need to check whether your data warehouse follows the best practices for a good design? In both cases, this webinar is for you.
A data warehouse is a central relational database that contains all measurements about a business or an organisation. This data comes from a variety of heterogeneous data sources, which includes databases of any type that back the applications used by the company, data files exported by some applications, or APIs provided by internal or external services.
But designing a data warehouse correctly is a hard task, which requires gathering information about the business processes that need to be analysed in the first place. These processes must be translated into so-called star schemas, which means, denormalised databases where each table represents a dimension or facts.
We will discuss these topics:
- How to gather information about a business;
- Understanding dictionaries and how to identify business entities;
- Dimensions and facts;
- Setting a table granularity;
- Types of facts;
- Types of dimensions;
- Snowflakes and how to avoid them;
- Expanding existing dimensions and facts.
