Resumo: The aim of this dissertation is to find evidence of a pattern in the use of Discourse Markers, indicative of suggestive language used for extremist and radical views. In order to better understand how these Discourse Markers might be used and how to linguistically identify them in written and spoken speech. Secondly, it will also attempt to understand how these Discourse Markers, such as “look” and “you know” work in swaying the listeners/readers to the speaker/writer’s favor. One hypothesis is the use of the DM “you know” as way to belittle the dispute to the initial position supported by the speaker as to sway the listener/reader onto to the speaker’s point of view. Another hypothesis is the use of the audience’s subconscious fears might be used as a weak point to convert them.

Em segundo lugar, também tentará entender como esses Marcadores Discursivos, como “look” e “you know” funcionam para influenciar os ouvintes/leitores a favor do falante/escritor. Uma hipótese é o uso do Marcador Discursivo “you know” como uma maneira de minimizar a validez do contra argumento utilizado contra a idea defendida pelo orador, conseguindo converter o ouvinte/leitor ao ponto de vista do falante. Outra hipótese será a utilização dos medos subconscientes do público como ponto fraco para os converter.Kurtes, SvetlanaDigitUMaMargalho, Beatriz Gomes2023-05-23T13:22:47Z2023-02-152023-02-15T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10400.13/5185TID:203294912enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-05-28T05:19:50Zoai:digituma.uma.pt:10400.13/5185Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T17:56:30.696784Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
