Dheskali V. Shprehje mbrojtëse ‘hedges’ and përforcues ‘boosters’: A corpus analysis of student academic texts in Albanian (L1) and English (L2). Acta Linguistica Petropolitana. 2020. XVI(2): 54–76.

В настоящей статье изучается использование хеджей и бустеров албанскими студентами бакалавриата, магистрантами и аспирантами в академических работах, написанных на албанском (L1) и английском языках (L2). В исследовании пропозициональные хеджи (аппроксимативные выражения, например ПРИБЛИЗИТЕЛЬНО) и бустеры (интенсификаторы, например ПОЛНОСТЬЮ) сопоставляются с изменяющими истинностную ценность высказывания хеджами («щиты», англ. shields, например Я ПОЛАГАЮ) и бустерами (усилительные выражения, например НЕСОМНЕННО). Исследование опирается на теорию системной функциональной грамматики [Halliday 1985; Halliday, Matthiessen 2014]. Положения этой теории сочетаются в исследовании с категоризацией хеджей, предложенной в работе [Prince et al. 1980], и моделью использования бустеров согласно [Quirk et al. 1985].

Для целей исследования были созданы два корпуса письменных работ албанских студентов, на албанском (около 2,2 млн словоупотреблений) и английском языках (около 600 000 словоупотреблений). Результаты количественного анализа показывают, что в работах албанских студентов, выполненных на родном языке (L1), предпочтение чаще всего отдается маркерам хеджирования. Одним из возможных объяснений является то, что авторы предпочитают создавать «скромное» представление о себе в своих работах, в соответствии с занимаемым ими «невысоким» положением и незначительной ролью в научном сообществе.

корпусная лингвистика, академическое письмо, системная функциональная грамматика, модализация, хедж, бустер, корпуса письменных работ албанских студентов, албанский язык, английский язык, первый язык (L1), второй язык (L2)
