Opis

Studying linguistic phenomena through translation! This book is a comparative study that investigates English and Kurdish connectives which signal conjunctive relations in online newspaper opinion articles. In this book, connectives are considered in terms of their procedural meanings; i.e. the different interpretations they signal within different contexts, rather than their conceptual meanings. The comparison between connectives from both languages is examined through the use of translation techniques such as creating paradigms of correspondence between the equivalent connectives from both languages.
