Description

Describing Discourse introduces discourse analysis through hands-on linguistic data analysis rather than abstract theory alone. This Routledge guide takes readers into real-world language use across advertising, law, medicine, and education, building analytical skills through practical examples and exercises. Each chapter develops your ability to identify and describe characteristic linguistic patterns in specific discourses constructed for particular purposes. The book bridges the gap between theoretical concepts and actual language in context, making it ideal for students new to discourse studies who need to understand how language functions in professional and everyday settings. By working with authentic texts and guided commentary, you gain the tools to recognise discourse structures, analyse communicative patterns, and understand how language shapes meaning within different social and professional domains.

Key Features

Each chapter includes exercises and commentary designed to develop practical analytical abilities.

Helps students understand how language is constructed for particular purposes within specific professional contexts.
