First published in 1985, this book studies several common items in
English conversation known variously as 'discourse particles',
'interjections', 'discourse markers', and, more informally,
'hesitations' or 'fillers'. While the analysis primarily focuses on
'like', 'well' and 'you know', the larger concern is the entire set
of items of which these are members and as such 'I mean', 'now',
'oh', 'hey', and 'aha' are also examined. These discourse particles
are analysed at length and then a framework is proposed in which
their use individually makes sense and allows revealing comparisons
to be made between them. This book will be of interest to students
of linguistics
