Abstract

Functional markers operating within the pragmatic domain are extremely common in interaction. These items are often used by speakers strategically in communicative exchanges, and can perform a number of functions which index discourse organization, the relationship with the interlocutor, and the speaker’s stance. This chapter introduces the volume, in which synchronic and diachronic approaches are balanced in order to describe recurrent morphosyntactic, semantic, and textual properties of markers, taking into consideration both the paths that characterize their diachronic developments and the synchronic comparison of their uses in genealogically related languages.
