| dc.description.abstract | The study investigated the use of discourse markers in lecture delivery in second language (L2) lecture setting in two selected Ghanaian Universities. The research identified the types of discourse markers used in lectures in Ghanaian universities, examined the functions that these markers perform in lecture and determined the categories of discourse markers used. The data for this research were recorded from lecturers from six faculties and three schools in the University of Education, Winneba and the University of Ghana, Legon respectively. In all, 1073 discourse markers were identified for their types, categories, and functions. The analysis revealed that the markers performed macro, micro, micro-macro, micro-micro, and micro micro-micro functions. | en_US |
