Beschreibung:
Seminar paper from the year 2014 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Linguistics, grade: 1,0, LMU Munich, language: English, abstract: The aim of this paper is the examination of the word 'like' as a newcomer quotative in the English-speaking world and to test results from previous studies on 'like' as a quotative. Speakers always have several options to report something and they are free to choose from different quotatives or verba dicendi in order to be able to introduce dialogues. Over the last years the number of quotatives which are at speakers' disposal increased as new quotatives came into being. This paper seeks to test latest findings and hypotheses about verba dicendi in general and the quotative like in particular. It does so using a qualitative analysis of subjects reporting a short scene from the TV show "Friends".
