DISCOURSE ANALYSIS Discourse analysis is a subfield of linguistics that attempts to analyze language above the sentence level It attempts to go beyond the simple analysis of grammar to examine how context

affects the meaning of what is said or written In this sense, it begins to bleed into psychology and sociology as well because factors such.as the social context and the speaker's state of mind must

be taken into account in discourse analysis Two of the primary approaches to discourse analysis are pragmatics and sociolinguistics

Pragmatics is the attempt to bridge the gap between the literal, grammatical meaning of a sentence and the speaker's true meaning Anyone who has ever had a misunderstanding with a friend or a relative knows that these two things are not always the same A common example would

be when a persoh says, "Why don't we go to the movies?" Here, the true meaning of the speaker

is not to ask a question, but rather to make a suggestion : :

To clear up the ambiguities of such language, pragmatics classifies pieces of speech according to speech acts, the role they play in a conversation Sometimes, the speech act is obvious When a police officer yells, "Stop or I'll shoot," the officer is both giving an order (stop) and making a threat (I'll shoot) Often, however, a speech act can only be determined by its context Look at the following example A mother asks her son, "Can you take out the garbage?" to which the son replies, "I did it yesterday "The mother then responds, "I don't ¢are Just do it." In this context the son's speech act is not to inform his mother of*the fact that he took out the garbage yesterday, as the grammar of the sentehce would seem to indicate Instead, the son's speech act is

a refusal of the mother's request This, however, only:becomes clear when the boy's words are analyzed within the larger context of the conversation as a whole Such analysis is the nature of

pragmatics

Sociolinguistics employs discourse analysis for an entirely different purpose The primary goal of a sociolinguistic approach to discourse analysis is to study how social factors, such as socioeconomic status, influence the way in which language is used Among speakers of the same language, people in different social groups will use language differently Their tones, grammar, and word choice may all be drastically different from each other, Sometimes this can be‘attributed simply to differences in educational level Obviously a college graduate will have a wider vocabulary* and.more sophisticated style of speech than most middle school students But differences in education do not entirely explain the differences in the way that language is used Social settings greatly affect the way that people use language For example, a business meeting requires a more formal use of language than a conversation with one's friends at a party These shifts in the way we use language are called code switching Nearly everyone is capable of some level.of code switching, and those who are not adept at it often have considerable trouble making their way in society

_ Other social factors are not so flexible For esau, one's status in society affects the way one speaks, and these changes are not so given to code switching; they are generally far more rigid A , famous example is the differences betiveen the way that men and women speak An analysis of male discourse generally shows it to be highly pragmatic and goal oriented Women's language, however, often is centered on building consensus and a sense of community An examination of the way that men and women respond when they are told of a personal problem illustrates this point quite well In this situation, men generally express their sympathy by offering advice and suggesting solutions Women, on the other hand, express their sympathy by relating their own experiences with similar problems or through the use of expressions like "I know how you feel." Here the emphasis is less on finding a solution to the problem than on building a sense of togetherness The analysis of such social influences on language 1 is the goal of a sociolinguistic

approach to discourse analysis

People want to sleep, however little exercises they have had Nor is the desire for

The presence of tall mountains interspersed with vast areas of arid desert and grassland makes the West ecologically far different from the East The West affords much more opportunity for chipmunk populations to become geographically isolated from one another, a condition of species

formation Also, there are more extremes in western habitats In the Sierra Nevada, high elevations

are close to low elevations, at least in terms of mileage, but ecologically they are very different

Most ecologists believe that ancient populations of chipmunks diverged genetically when isolated from one another by mountains and unfavorable ecological habitat These scattered populations first evolved into races — adapted to the local ecological conditions — and then into species, reproductively isolated from one another This period of evolution wag relatively recent,

as evidenced by the similar appearance of all the western chipmunk species

Ecologists have studied the four chipmunk species that occur on the eastern slope of the Sierra and have learned just how these species interact while remaining separate, each occupying its own elevational zone The sagebrush chipmunk is found at the lowest elevation, among the ` sagebrush The yellow pine chipmunk is common in low to mid-elevations and open conifer forests, including pinon and ponderosa and Jeffrey pine forests The lodgepole chipmunk is found

at higher elevations, among the lodgepoles, firs, and high-elevation pines The alpine chipmunk is higher still, venturing among the talus slopes, alpine meadows, and high-elevation pines and

junipers Obviously, the ranges of each species overlap Why don’t sagebrush chipmunks move

into the pine zones? Why don’t alpine chipmunks move to lower elevations and share the conifer forests with lodgepole chipmunks?

The answer, in one word, is aggression Chipmunk species actively defend their ecological zones from encroachment by neighboring species The yellow pine chipmunk is more aggressive than the sagebrush chipmunk, possibly because it is a bit larger It successfully bullies its smaller evolutionary cousin, excluding it from the pine forests, Experiments have shown that the

sagebrush chipmunk jis physiologically able to live anywhere in the Sierra Nevada, from high alpine zones to the desert The little creature is apparently restricted to the desert not because it is

specialized to live only there but because that is the only habitat where none of the other chipmunk species can live The fact that sagebrush chipmunks tolerate very warm temperatures makes them, and only them, able to live where they do The sagebrush chipmunk essentially occupies its habitat :

by default In one study, ecologists established that yellow pine chipmunks actively exclude

10

sagebrush chipmunks from pine forests; the ecologists simply trapped all the yellow pine chipmunks in a section of forest and moved them out Sagebrush chipmunks immediately moved

in, but yellow pine chipmunks did not enter sagebrush desert when sagebrush chipmunks were

removed

The most aggressive of the four eastern-slope species is the lodgepole chipmunk, a feisty rodent indeed It actively prevents alpine chipmunks from moving downslope, and yellow pine chipmunks from moving upslope, There is logic behind the lodgepole’s aggressive demeanor It

lives in the cool, shaded conifer forests, and of the four species, it is the least able to tolerate heat

Stress It is, in other words, the species of the strictest habitat needs: it simply must be in those

shaded forests However, if it shared its habitat with alpine and yellow pine chipmunks, either or

both of these species might outcompete it, taking most of the available food Such a competition could effectively eliminate lodgepole chipmunks from -the habitat Lodgepoles survive only by

virtue of their aggression :

central star, or the Sun Some of this objects can be seen from Earth with the unaided eye or an

earth-based telescope, but the majority have only been detected through the development of instruments such as the Hubble Space Telescope, or unmanned probes like Voyager These

It is generally thought that a cloud of interstellar gas and dust known as a “nebula”, was disturbed by some major event in space, possibly a supernova, about five billion years ago and began to collapse under its own gravity, forming a cloud The center of the cloud became so hot that it eventually exploded into a star with the cooler gases flowing around it In time, the gases condensed into dust, metals, and various kinds of ice in the cold outer reaches of space These

solid particles collided with each other to form larger objects, or asteroids, as they continued to

As these asteroids increased in size, their gravity began to pull in all the material in their

immediate surroundings, and the largest of these went on to become planets The very different composition of the inner planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars) and the outer planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune and Uranus) has led astronomers to hypothesize that their distances

#om the Sun caused them to develop at different rates and in different ways According to the most widely-held opinions, the planets closest to the Sun, where all the ice particles were

vaporized due to the incredible heat, were formed mostly of rock, silicates, and metals with high melting points These particles collided and were pulled together by gravity These inner planets have thin atmospheres or none at all, and few, if any, satellites, which would indicate that most of the available material was either pulled into their own gravity or burned away in

the heat of the Sun

The inner and outer planets are separated by an asteroid belt, consisting of material that , was not able to form into planets due to Jupiter’s immense gravity Beyond this area, as more

spinning star’s centrifugal force About a million years after the cooling of the original nebula,

the Sun began to emit a stream of charged protons and electrons known as solar wind which

giants These planets attracted many objects in their vast gravity fields, some of which are big enough to be termed “satellites”, and countless smaller fragments which formed rings around

the planets

The discovery of more objects in the Solar System in recent times has led to the need for

further classification Far beyond the outer planets lies Pluto, which was originally considered

to be the ninth planet, but which has since been found to be a binary system of two dwarf planets, the other being Charon Pluto’s origins may be in the recently discovered Kuiper Belt,

the source of many of the comets which travel through the Solar System This theory is based

on Pluto’s rock/ice composition which is similar to that of a comet At one time, also thought to

be a moon of Neptune, Pluto/Charon was reclassified in 2006 as one of three dwarf planets

discovered so far, the others being Eris and Ceres

Scientific knowledge is only as good as the ability of scientists to collect evidence, so as new advances are made in astronomy, the present theories may be disproved, as in the case of

Pluto The above account Tepresents the consensus of current opinions on the matter T
