“…In any of these approaches, the discourse and the pragmatic dimensions of the term discourse marker are clearly acknowledged, but this does not explain the indistinctive use of these two terms. Ghezzi (2014) offers a description of these terms as follows:…”

This article explores the translation procedures followed in the rendering of the adverbials indeed, in fact, really and actually in a parallel corpus of English texts and their Spanish counterparts in the field of economy. While the adverbials mentioned are all categorized as boosters according to Hyland’s classification of metadiscourse markers (2005) in the source corpus, their Spanish correspondents may fall within other such metadiscourse categories as attitude and hedging markers, for example. The study of these variants contributes to our understanding of the processes involved in the translation of these markers, which seem to correspond to an intention of the translators to provide adequate translated versions so that these texts read as naturally in the target language as possible. Our methodology of inquiry involves corpus linguistics tools in order to interrogate a parallel corpus and retrieve cases of the adverbials indeed, in fact, really and actually. Our approach to discourse markers includes Schiffrin (1987), Fraser (1996), Jucker & Ziv (1998), Aijmer (2002), and especially Buysse (2012), Ghezzi (2014), Carrió-Pastor (2016a, 2016b), and Furkó (2020). Our notion of metadiscourse follows Hyland (2005) from where we have also taken the taxonomy of metadiscourse markers used in the analysis of data to classify findings. The identification and the classification of the translation procedures rely on Cruz-García (2014). Conclusions report on the most frequent translations procedures and the commonest Spanish forms used to translate the adverbial analysed, including their metadiscourse functions.

“…Pastaraisiais dešimtmečiais gerokai pagausėjo lingvistikos mokslo darbų, tyrinėjančių diskurso žymiklius arba kalbos vienetus, kurių funkcija yra "susieti pasakymą su diskursine situacija, t. y. išryškinti autoriaus ir skaitytojo santykį, kalbėtojo poziciją kalbamų dalykų atžvilgiu ir (ar) teksto organizavimo elementus" 2 (Heine 2013: 1211). Daug dėmesio skiriama diskurso žymiklių apibrėžimui, jų inventoriaus nustatymui, funkcinių ir semantinių bruožų analizei, santykiui su konceptualiai artimomis kategorijomis, tokiomis kaip diskurso dalelytės, modalinės dalelytės, pragmatiniai žymikliai, nustatyti (Aijmer, Simon-Vandenbergen 2006, 2011Degand et al 2013;Fedriani, Sansó 2017;Fischer 2006;Fraser 1999;Ghezzi 2014).…”

“…Priklausomai nuo apibrėžties, skirtingose klasifikacinėse sistemose viena iš minėtų konceptualių kategorijų gali būti stambesnė ir apimti kitas, priskiriamas smulkesniam tipui, arba skirtingos kategorijos gali būti laikomos lygiavertėmis (žr., pavyzdžiui, Aijmer, Simon-Vandenbergen 2006;Ghezzi 2014;Jucker, Ziv 1998). Nepaisant skirtingų sampratų, daugelis mokslininkų sutaria dėl tam tikrų tipiškų diskurso žymiklių bruožų; pavyzdžiui, diskurso žymikliais laikomi laisvi, į sakinio sintaksinę struktūrą neintegruoti kalbiniai vienetai, nekuriantys propozicinio turinio ar struktūros, t. y. juos pašalinus, propozicija liks nepakitusi sintaksiškai ir semantiškai (Fischer 2014).…”

Straipsnio tikslas – aptarti konstrukcijų su nederinamuoju neveikiamosios rūšies dalyviu „galima“ vartoseną akademiniuose, žiniasklaidos ir grožinės literatūros tekstuose. Tyrimui naudojama lietuvių mokslo kalbos tekstynas CorALit (Corpus Academicum Lithuanicum), Dabartinės lietuvių kalbos tekstyno žiniasklaidos tekstų iš dienraščio „Lietuvos rytas“ patekstynis ir dvikalbis dvikryptis lygiagretusis grožinės literatūros tekstynas ParaCorpA→LT→A. Tirtos GALIMA + INF (+ NP), KAD / JOG-S ir GALIMA + INF (PARENT)1 konstrukcijos. Nustatyta, kad šios konstrukcijos vyrauja moksliniuose tekstuose ir yra vartojamos autoriaus požiūriui reikšti, santykiui su adresatu kurti ir sąsajoms tarp skirtingų teksto elementų žymėti. GALIMA + INF (+ NP), KAD / JOG-S konstrukcija koduoja subjektyvų autoriaus požiūrį ir (ar) atlieka kitas diskurso organizavimo, santykio su skaitytoju kūrimo funkcijas. GALIMA + INF (PARENT) yra sintaksiškai išlaisvėjusi ir vartojama kaip diskurso žymiklis perteikti intersubjektyvų autoriaus požiūrį, siekį pabrėžti autoriaus-skaitytojo bendrumą. Ji taip pat gali būti vartojama kaip reformulavimo žymiklis, rodantis sąsajas tarp skirtingų teksto elementų. Akivaizdžių šių konstrukcijų vartosenos skirtumų žiniasklaidos ir grožinės literatūros tekstuose, palyginti su moksliniais tekstais, nustatyta nebuvo, skiriasi tik konstrukcijų vartosenos dažnis.

“…In our account we will borrow from Molinelli (2014), Ghezzi & Molinelli (2014), Ghezzi (2014) the term functional markers as a cover term for a wide set of items that, regardless of their internal complexity and their degree of grammaticalization, express pragmatic, non truth-conditional values of the utterance. As the authors propose, we consider a three-way distinction inside this set, corresponding to three basic functional domains: PMs are related to the management of an ongoing interaction, and include markers like attention getters and turn yelding devices.…”

Several studies have demonstrated that, in situations of language contact, discourse markers, pragmatic markers and modal particles are easily transferable from one language into the other. This contribution tries to examine how does this process take place in bilingual speech, and it discusses data from a corpus of bilingual conversations from Gibraltar. It is argued that switching of discourse and pragmatic markers, as well as modal expressions, is an extremely frequent phenomenon and, more interestingly, that regularities in this process can be found, in the form of regular and recurrent bilingual patterns. These functional elements in fact are shown to behave consistently with each other, allowing to identify class-specific patterns, and with other discourse-relevant entities such as left dislocations and pseudoclefts.
