THE PHONETICS OF DISCOURSE MARKERS IN ENGLISH CONVERSATION
Main Article Content
Аннотация:
Discourse markers play an important role in the coherence of discourse and facilitate communication. It has been also argued that EFL students need not only the grammatical competence but also discourse knowledge to be able to effectively maintain a conversation. Therefore, the present study investigates the use and functions of discourse markers as used by EFL students at Faculty of Social Sciences in Kuwait. It also aims to investigate the differences between high and low proficient learners in using such discourse markers. The study adopts the Fung and Carter‟s (2007) model in which the discourse markers are classified into four categories, namely, interpersonal, structural, inferential and cognitive.
