Дискурсные маркеры как когнитивные доминанты речевого взаимодействия в разносистемных языках

Abstract

The article contains the results of studying the discourse markers as a universal cognitive and functional phenomenon of discourse from the point of view of the theory of cognitive dominants of speech. The attempt is made to analyze discourse markers as a component of the conceptual structure of discourse from the point of view of thematic, subject, sociocultural, instrumental, and intentional principles. The role of discourse markers as cognitive dominants in speech is justified and verified on the basis of the modern corpora of Russian, English, French and Japanese text and speech material which represents different language systems and types of discourse. The topicality of the research is determined by the practical necessity and importance of further development of cognitive studies of discourse markers in directions, which open up the possibility of effective automated identification of discourse markers in different languages through the use of heuristic methods and artificial intelligence technologies. In this regard, the formalization of cognitive potential of discourse markers belonging to different language systems based on the theory of cognitive dominants is believed to provide a significant theoretical and linguistic basis and new data for the further development of the principle of heuristic analysis of discourse markers in speech belonging to different types of discourse. The scientific significance of the research is determined by the fact that the obtained results provide a qualitatively new approach to the issue of providing a formal description of discourse marker functions as cognitive dominants of speech for the purpose of developing the algorithms of text and discourse processing, and, in particular, the heuristic identification of discourse markers in electronic text corpora in different languages.
