Discourse-pragmatic markers are central to everyday language, yet
many aspects of their use and functions remain elusive or
under-investigated. Bringing together a global team of leading
scholars, this volume presents a representative showcase of work
currently being conducted in the field of discourse-pragmatic
variation and change, including investigations of features such as
uh/um, please, sentence-final is all, and discourse-pragmatic
features from a number of languages. The book emphasizes that not
only have researchers answered the call to address complex issues
such as cross-linguistic reliability, extending research across
languages, and expanding and improving on methods and analysis, but
that they continue to address perennial questions in the field of
language variation and change. With sections on theoretical and
methodological issues, innovative variables, and language contact
situations, the volume offers a robust overview of best practices
for both new and experienced researchers.
