About this document
Understanding Discourse Structure and Analysis by Beatrice Agamennone is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document discusses discourse structure and the differences between spoken and written language. It covers how discourse is shaped by social and cultural practices, and how language conveys socially situated identities. Spoken language tends to be more spontaneous and less explicit than written language, containing fillers, repetitions and reformulations. Discourse analysis examines how people communicate and the meanings derived from context beyond just words.
