Connecting with the Eternal Ground

Abstract

This paper investigates that brief connections between usages of left-dislocations in American discourse and discourse functions for developing conversation statuses based on conversation analyses in pragmatics. It also reveals that speakers’ intentions are shown in a conversation for maintaining topic continuity as a tool of discourse function. It is hard to account that word order is manipulative; however, hypotheses that we can bear out discourse functions technically are demonstrated. As the point, the aspect proves that the conversation analyses are correlated with a discourse speakers talk unconsciously to construct good relationships between friends and new classmates. It may be difficult to find theories of discourse structures and information statues; however, we must try to appeal and reach new analyses.
