Abstract
The structure and production of persuasive writing are regarded to be significantly influenced by metadiscourse, a new and fascinating area of study that is based on the norms and expectations of those involved. Metadiscourse markers are observed as social activities that encourage contact among writers, readers, speakers, and listeners. In other words, authors must represent their identities in their writings in a way that makes sense to their readers. However, some words are used in writer's identity study in a way that can lead audiences to perceive them incorrectly. The primary goals of this study were to examine the metadiscourse indicators that were used most frequently in Q1 Scopus-index articles. The 10 Q1 Scopus-indexed linguistics articles from the Journal of Pragmatics that were used as study data ranged from (2020 to 2022). On the basis of Hyland's (2005a) model of metadiscourse markers, the data were qualitatively examined. The findings indicate that 2407 metadiscourse markers were employed in the entire dataset. There were 1785/74.1587 % of interactive metadiscourse markers compared to 622/25.8412 % of interactional metadiscourse markers.. Remarkably, it was found that metadiscourse markers were regarded as an essential tool for enhancing effective communication between authors and readers, establishing helpful possibilities for how well readers comprehend the material, and aiding them in differentiating facts from opinions while reading a text. Finally, the study suggests expanded use of metadiscourse-based analysis in academic writing generally and in high rank research articles in particular.
