Abstract: |
Corpus-based studies have become increasingly popular among researchers in
the field of linguistics and language studies, as they may shed light on language
instruction and course designs (Conrad, 1999). Given this emphasis, a corpus-based
analysis on stances (Hyland, 2005) in students’ classroom speeches has been employed.
The analysis of a corpus of 104 undergraduate students’ speech transcriptions reveals
that students employed authorial stances in their speeches. Such results, however, only
suggest that these stances were used subconsciously by the students, given that they have
never been introduced to such a concept. It is then suggested that the concepts of
authorial stances be introduced to Thai students so they may employ these linguistics
items on a more strategic level and become more competent speakers and writers of
English. |
