概要 | This paper investigates the variance in practices for expressing modality in ELF situations depending on a participant’s role in the discussion—dominating or peripheral. A subset of a corpus of recorded discussions was examined for the expression of modality—specifically uses of modal auxiliaries and common epistemic and attitudinal markers («think», «like», etc.). The links observed in the study suggest that discussion dominance is an attribute that is unevenly distributed not only due to personality differences but also due to intercultural factors, and that this dominance is accomplished or enacted by specific language practices. |
