15 definition of discourse analysis:
2. More broadly, discourse is the use of spoken or written language in a social context.
3. Discourse
is the way in which language is used socially to convey broad historical
meanings. It is language identified by the social conditions of its use, by who
is using it and under what conditions. Language can never be 'neutral' because
it bridges our personal and social worlds."
(Frances Henry and Carol Tator, Discourses of Domination. University of Toronto Press, 2002)

4. Analysis is The process of separating something into its constituent elements.‘the
procedure is often more accurately described as one of synthesis rather than
analysis’Often contrasted with synthesis
5. Analysis is The identification
and measurement of the chemical constituents of a substance or specimen.‘samples
are sent to the laboratory for analysis’[count noun] ‘analyses of the rocks
are consistent with a basaltic composition’
6. Discourse
analyits do what people in their everyday experience of language do
instinctively and largely unconsciously: notice patternings of language inuse
and the circumstances (participants, situations, purposes, outcomes) with which
these are typically associated.
7.Discourse Analysis Much of the
work, but not by any means all. A great deal of discourse analysis is done by
linguists who would not call themselves applied and much by scholars in other
disciplines – sociology, psychology, psychotherapy,for example – who would not
call themselves linguists. Discourse analysisis part of applied linguistics but
does not belong exclusively to it; it is a multi -disciplinary field, and
hugely diverse in the range of its interests.
8. Discourse analysis For many the
interest in discourse is beyond language in use (Jaworski & Coupland, 1999,
p. 3) to “language use relative to social, political and cultural formations .
. . , language reflecting social order but also language shaping social order,
and shaping individuals’ interaction with society.
9. Discourse analysis Jaworski and
Coupland (1999, pp. 3–6) explain why so many areas of academic study have
become so gripped by enthusiasm for discourse analysis in terms, firstly, of a
shift in epistemology, “a falling off of intellectual security in what we know
and what it means to know . . . The question of how we build knowledge has come to the fore,
and this is where issues to do with language and linguistic representation come
into focus.
10. Discourse analysis figures
prominently in areas of applied linguistics related to language and education.
These include both language as a means of education and language as a goal of
education, and both first language edu- cation and second language education.
(By first language education I mean mainstream education, generally state
provided, in situations where the medium of education is, typically, the L1 of
most of the students. By second language education I mean both the teaching of
second/foreign languages and the use of second/foreign languages as media of
education. For many learners these two situations are, of course, co-occurrent
well that's all about 15 definition of discourse analysis. thanks for reading.. and I will give back sn explanation about discourse analysis next week.. V(^.^)V
