Resumo: | This dissertation aims to analyse get constructions in different contemporary varieties of spoken World
Englishes. For this purpose, syntactic, lexical, semantic, pragmatic and stylistic variables will be taken into
account. Special emphasis is placed on the discursive, pragmatic and lexical factors which determine their
use, and on the semantic and pragmatic functions these constructions have in the different registers and
varieties of English. It will also study the sociolinguistic parameters that condition the variations in the use
of the get constructions, and the differences between these constructions and the be-passive. The
dissertation aims to provide a cross-varietal comparative analysis on the basis of data obtained from the
different corpora of the International Corpus of English (ICE), namely the British, Indian, Hong Kong and
Singaporean components. |
