Causal and Contrastive Discourse Markers in Novice Academic Writing
Original language description
The article studies causal and contrastive relations between adjacent or more distant segments of discourse since they play an important role in expressing coherence relations (Taboada 2006) in academic discourse including discourse written by universitystudents of English. By overtly signalling how the writer intends the discourse segment that follows to relate to the previous segment(s), discourse markers (DMs), in particular those expressing causal and contrastive relations, contribute to cohesion and enhance the establishment and maintenance of coherence in academic written discourse.
