| Popis | The lecturer introduces results of her investigation into a corpus of diploma theses written by Czech and German students of English with the aim of finding out whether the use of causal and contrastive discourse markers by novice non-native speakers differs from the writing habits of experienced native speakers of English when building coherence relations in the genre of diploma theses. In addition, she discusses differences in the preferences of novice writers from different discourse communities, i.e. Czech Republic and Germany, while aiming to identify problems students face when producing texts in academic settings. |
