There are some discourse markers to signal the certain speaker intention and to show how he / she is going to say, or has just said, is connected to what went before or what is coming up.

Uh… I play soccer for the college, too. the word “ college “ is repeated. Alice : Soccer? that’s great. I love soccer. And what are you studying? the word “ soccer” is repeated Steve: Physical education. I love sports.The word “ love “ is repeated from previous utterance Alice: Do you live with friends?

19. UTTERANCE THE ANALYSIS OF INTERPERSONALITY Steve: Uh, no, I don’t. I live alone. Alice: Do you like the college?The word” college “ is repeated. Steve: Well, it’s OK. But my business classes are really hard. I have to work with spreadsheets and data bases. I really worry about that now this class uses a different computer.

But “ belongs to hedge. Alice: I have an idea. Why don’t you come to my house tomorrow and meet my grandson? He is a computer whiz. Whiz” belongs to exaggeration because in the common language, the speaker can use the word “expert “ but in the conversation she uses “ whiz” to exaggerate the high ability of certain person. The word” computer “ is repeated. Steve: Oh... No, I... Uh... have to study. Alice: Oh come on.

21. Laughter, chuckles =- Hedges: Steve: Well, it’s OK. But my business classes are really hard. I have to work with spreadsheets and data bases. I really worry about that. And now this class uses a different computer. => in order to blunt the force of a disagreement. => In order Steve does not threaten the Alice face( save Alice’s face).

22. Vague Language= - Discourse markers to appeal listener Ex: Steve: Oh... No, I... Uh... have to study. Alice: Oh come on. Tomorrow night at seven thirty? 610 13 th Ave

23. EXAGGERATION Example : He is a computer whiz. Common language: He is an expert of computer. Evaluative language : He is a computer whiz. The word “ whiz” has same meaning with “expert ” but “whiz” deliberately exaggerates the high ability of certain person.

24. Repeating other’s words Steve: Well, let’s see. I am a student here at college. Uh… I play soccer for the college, too. COMMENT: the word “ college “ is repeated. Alice : Soccer? that’s great. I love soccer. And what are you studying? COMMENT: the word “ soccer” is repeated

The word “love” expresses like to something. The speakers cooperate to ensure that what they say is relevant to what has been said before and to the overall purpose.

27. UTTERANCETHE ANALYSIS OF COHERENCE Steve: Physical education. I love sports.Answer to the previous question and to show the same feeling with the other speaker (I love sport). Alice: Do you live with friends?Ask question to Steve which has correlation with the place of living. Steve: Uh, no, I don’t. I live aloneAnswer to the previous question.

And his feeling related to teaching learning process in his department( he shows his problem that he faced).

28. UTTERANCETHE ANALYSIS OF COHERENCE Alice: I have an idea. Why don’t you come to my house tomorrow and meet my grandson? He is a computer whiz. Give solution by inviting Steve to visit Alice’s house because Steve problem can be overcome with the help of Alice’s grandson. Steve: Oh... No, I... Uh... have to study.

30. Substitution EX:I have to work with spreadsheets and databases. I really worry about that. The word “ that” substitutes “work with spreadsheets and databases”. Linker a)I love soccer.
