4 Main components of Systemic Functional Linguistics Basic assumptions Metafunctions Functional syntax Register theory System and system networks Applications: text analysis, stylistics, machine translation, language generation, language teaching, language acquisition 5 Main components of Functional Discourse Analysis (1) Theoretical assumptions --- SFL (2) Goal objectives --- from interpretive to explanatory (3) Scope --- Context of culture (genre), context of situation (register), context of co-text (language) (4) Levels of analysis --- ideology, semantics, lexicogrammar, phonology/graphology (5) Procedures – observation, interpretation, description, analysis, explanation, evaluation 6 Summary Language is a system of meanings. Form is the realization of meaning. Language as meaning-potential (Choice implies meaning.) Language as metafunctional Language as multi-stratal Quotations Halliday (1994/2000: F41): “In deciding how much ground to try to cover, I have had certain guiding principles in mind. The aim has been to construct a grammar for purposes of text analysis: one that would make it possible to say sensible and useful things about any text, spoken or written, in modern English.” Quotations Halliday (1994/2000: F39): “Language has evolved to satisfy human needs; and the way it is organized is functional with respect to these needs --- it is not arbitrary.” Halliday (1994/2000: F40): “A language is interpreted as a system of meanings, accompanied by forms through which the meanings can be realized.” Thank you!
