“…They propose a model called "layers of report" for L2 learners to choose reporting verbs when they write. Similarly, Ignatieva (2011) and Ignatieva and Rodríguez-Vergara (2015) find that the use of verbal process is generically different, which is based on different text types, topics and the writer's academic writing experience. Tang (2004) analyzes reporting practice in academic texts and she summarizes the types of reporting verbs, reporting tenses and voices, and motivations of reporting.…”

This paper synthesized 66 studies both in English and Chinese concerning projection in Systemic Functional Linguistics with a meta-analysis and synthesis approach. Our data show that projection in Systemic Functional Linguistics (hereafter SFL) is a burgeoning field with expanding focused areas from different settings after several decades of development. Five major domains of research have been identified, namely, theoretical discussions, language description, language education, translation studies, and professional communication. Studies in these areas demonstrate that the notion of projection is of great theoretical significance. It is also a useful analytical tool in investigating both written and spoken discourse. However, it is found that interpersonal projection remains an elusive concept, and projection below the clause rank has just begun to gain attention. Projection in professional communication, translation studies and multimodality is underinvestigated.Projection is typically realized as a clause complex consisting of a projecting clause and a projected clause. For example, in he said he would go, the projecting clause is 'he said' whereas the projected clause is 'he would go'. The notion of projection, however, is distinctive in the sense that it is a semantic category that is general enough to cover

“…In the ideational sense, we recommend more research on how projection comes to depict the world and on the variations of frequencies of projection in texts of different types (e.g. Nesbitt and Plum 1988;Ignatieva and Rodríguez-Vergara 2015).…”

“…Estudios sobre la distribución de los procesos verbales en español demuestran que la frecuencia de su uso varía de acuerdo con el género (Ignatieva y Rodríguez-Vergara, 2015). Textos de algunos géneros, como la revisión de literatura, pueden incluir un porcentaje elevado de procesos verbales, ya que en estos textos se hace referencia constante a otros autores.…”

La fuerza en la construcción del marco teórico en artículos científicos: un análisis desde la lingüística sistémico-funcional Force in the Construction of the Theoretical Framework in Scientific Papers: A Systemic-Functional Linguistics Approach La force dans la construction du cadre théorique dans des articles scientifiques : une analyse partant de la linguistique systémique-fonctionnelle AbstractOpposite to what is traditionally stated, the theoretical framework often constitutes an independent section in research articles. Therein writers establish the theoretical tradition that supports their research and make an account of the theoretical and research developments in their discipline, specifically, in their topic of research, thus establishing a dialogue with other voices. This article examines how writers organize their theoretical framework by means of verbal clauses using the resources of the graduation subsystem proposed by the systemic functional linguistics to express force -which will help them to construct their authorial voice. This study analyzed the verbal clauses and the graduation resources of the theoretical frameworks in 20 research articles in Spanish language published in Colombian journals from the area of applied linguistics. Findings show the variety of resources deployed by writers in their verbal clauses to strengthen their commitment to their tenets, especially in prominent places of their theoretical framework, such as the macroTheme, hyperThemes, macroNew and hyperNew. Awareness of these theoretical framework features may be relevant for teaching academic writing.

“…Next, some previous studies related with transitivity analysis and verbal process conducted by some scholars (Ignatieva & Rodríguez-Vergara, 2011;Isti'anah & Id, 2014). The researches focused on the process type used in opinion and students' article to find out the genres of the text and find out the people's thought.…”

The purpose of this study is to describe the shift process which is caused by applying certain translation techniques. The techniques are modulation, transposition, implication, and reduction by Molina and Albir (2002). The research used descriptive qualitative-quantitative method by applying purposive sampling technique. The source of the data was the text of Obama’s and Trump’s inauguration speech and their respective translations. There were 152 data in each inauguration speech. The data were the clause which contains the process type which is realized in verbal group in English and its translation. Based on the total of research data, 10 data or 6.57 % in Obama’s inauguration speech and 7 data or 4.60 % in Trump’s inauguration speech was obtained. The obtained data was changing or shifting in process type from the original text into the target text (Indonesian). So, the result of the research supports the theory that modulation, implication, explication, and reduction can cause the shift, especially in verbal group.
