A Pragmatic Analysis of Modality in English Academic Texts in Nigeria and Iraq تحليل تداولي للتصويغية في النصوص الانكليزية في نيجيريا و العراق
...Show More Authors

Despite scholars’ attention on the typology of modality as a linguistic phenomenon, yet the use of modality across varieties of English is not well visible in communication-based researches that take semantics, pragmatics and discourse issues as the objects for their investigation. The paper generates its data from six M. A. dissertations from Nigerian University and equal number of the M. A. dissertations from Iraqi University to qualitatively and quantitatively investigate the contextual use of modality within the pragmatic perspective. The data analysis reveals that modality such as usuality, potentiality, necessity, probability and obligation in the dissertations encapsulates interpersonal and authorial voice in which the meaning of a clause is qualified to reflect the writer’s judgment of the likelihood of the proposition it expresses being true. The study findings also show the divergent use of modality to indicate certainty, possibility, probability and evidence and the nature of their illocutionary forces in the academic writings through verb modals and lexically modalized presentations in the MA. Dissertations that form the data of the study.

Grotesque works in children's theater texts
...Show More Authors

Theater is described as a form of human expression, and an important human necessity, through which the needs of individuals and societies are expressed, and an important mediator for the transfer of educational, social and intellectual dimensions. Hence, the importance of the child’s theater emerged as a guiding educational method that affects the child’s development educationally, emotionally, psychologically and socially through imaginative play that combines enjoyment and entertainment. The grotesque is one of the artistic methods that work to attract the attention of the recipient in theatrical texts that combine dissonance and contradiction in a dramatic act that combines the beautiful and the ugly, the honest and the false tog

Prosodic Cues of Narrative Segmentation in Robert Frost’s ‘Mending Wall’: A Phono-Pragmatic Exploration
...Show More Authors

There is much research on the syntax-semantics and the syntax-phonology interaction. However, the exact relation between prosodic patterns and informational structure (as part of pragmatics) is still to be investigated. In this empirical study, we challenge the view that prosody and pragmatics are two autonomous levels of grammar. This paper is an analysis of the narrative poem ‘Mending Wall’ recited by Robert Frost to explore the prosodic features and the associated pragmatic meanings. It is proposed that a set of intentionally manipulated suprasegmental features form a prosodic grammar that works in line with syntax and lexical choices to build the narrative discourse and achieve pragmatic meanings. The paper shows that the am

  ملخّص البحث     

تميّزت اللغة العربية بوجود ظاهرة الإعراب كاملة فيها، ويُعدّ الإعراب من أكثر خصائص العربية وضوحًا؛ لأن مراعاته في الكلام هي الفارقُ بين المعاني التي يمكن أن يقع اللّبس فيها.

وليس من شك أن القرآن العظيم قد نزل مُعرَبًا وحفظته العرب ونقلته إلينا مُعربًا، كما تناقلوا أحاديث نبيِّهم عليه الصلاة والسلام كذلك، وفعلوا مثل ذلك عند حفظهم أشعار العرب قبل الإسلام وبعد
