Language of the Emails: Forms of Spoken and Written Language

Abstract:

The objective of this thesis is to investigate some typical features of language used in emails and trace up some differences and resamblances between the spoken norm of language and language of emails on the one hand and the written norm of language and language of emails on the other. The findings have revealed that the boundaries between speech and writing against background of text-based CMC are indistinct. Concerning the functions of language, it will be proved that while referential function plays the primary role in written texts, expressive function predominates in emails.
