The Emergence of Texture: An Analysis of the Functions of the Nominal Demonstratives in English Interlanguage Corpus.
Murphy, Terry
Language Learning & Technology, v5 n3 p152-73 Sep 2001
Uses the concept of "emergent texture" to analyze the corpus behavior of the four nominal demonstratives--"this,""that,""these," an "those"--in an interlanguage corpus created at Yonsei University in Korea in 1999. Investigates a corpus of 109 single paragraphs. The concept of markedness is emphasized as a way of mediating the debate over the issue of interlanguage development. (Author/VWL)
