Discourse analysis examines how stretches of language become meaningful and unified for language users by looking at cohesion and coherence. Cohesion refers to formal links like repetition and conjunctions that connect sentences, while coherence connects ideas. Discourse can be spoken, like conversations, or written, like reports. Discourse analysis emerged in the 1970s to study language in context rather than in isolation.
The document discusses various types of sentences including simple, compound, complex, and minor sentences. It defines what constitutes each type of sentence based on the number and type of clauses.

The document also covers clause elements such as subjects, verbs, objects, and complements.
Unit 2: Sentences, Utterances, and PropositionsAshwag Al Hamid
油
The document discusses the key concepts of utterance, sentence, and proposition in semantics. It defines an utterance as a physical act of saying by a speaker on a particular occasion. A sentence is an abstract linguistic object composed of words arranged according to grammatical rules. A proposition is the aspect of a declarative sentence's meaning that describes a state of affairs in the world that can be true or false. Propositions are central to semantics as the meanings of sentences involve propositions.
Parts of Speech are the eight categories into which words are classified based on their functions in a sentence. The eight parts of speech are nouns, pronouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, prepositions, conjunctions, and interjections. Each part of speech has specific functions. For example, nouns are used to name people, places, things, or ideas, verbs express actions or states of being, and adjectives describe nouns. The document provides definitions and examples of each part of speech to explain their uses and classifications.
Presentation on adverb and kinds of adverbHassanAhmed371
油
This presentation discusses the different types of adverbs. An adverb provides description to verbs, adjectives, and other adverbs. There are several main kinds of adverbs: adverbs of place indicate where something occurs, such as here or outside. Adverbs of time specify when something happens, like yesterday or soon. Adverbs of manner describe how something is done, such as quickly or loudly. Adverbs of frequency show how often something occurs, including always, sometimes, and rarely. The presentation provides examples to illustrate the different types of adverbs.

Topic 2a includes a discussion of the poem "A Poison Tree" by William Blake.
Verbs can be main verbs or auxiliary verbs. Main verbs express the main action in a sentence while auxiliary verbs help support the main verb. There are two types of auxiliary verbs: primary verbs like be, have, and do, and modal verbs like can, will, and may. Modal verbs are used to influence meaning and are always used with another verb.
1. The document describes different types of English texts, including descriptive, narrative, recount, explanation, and others.
2. Each text type is defined and examples are provided to illustrate their purpose, structure, and language features.
3. Descriptive text presents information about a person, place or thing, narrative tells a story, and recount recounts past events in chronological order.
1. Literature uses techniques like defamiliarization and foregrounding to draw attention to language and arouse emotions in readers through deviations from ordinary usage.
2. Foregrounding refers to stylistic effects that make language prominent through deviations at the phonetic, semantic or other levels.
3. These deviations slow readers down and prolong reading time, allowing feelings to emerge that enrich understanding of the text.
The document discusses adverbs and provides examples of different types of adverbs. It defines adverbs as words that modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs. It then discusses two main types of adverbs: adverbs of manner, which explain how an action is done, and adverbs of place, which indicate where an action occurs.

This poem describes a conversation between a grandmother and her grandchild. They are sitting together in the grandmother's hospital room, as she is nearing the end of her life. When the grandmother asks about snow, the grandchild describes the purifying qualities of ice and snow, and how it blankets and transforms everything. The grandmother's eyes wander to the hospital window and IV drip as she listens, showing her declining condition. She asks the grandchild to tell her more about snow's ability to purify and allow one to imagine themselves as an angel before saying goodbye.
This document provides an overview of different text types and genres. It discusses the purpose and structure of instructions, explanations, information reports, expositions, and narratives. Key features of each genre are described such as language features, organization, and intended audience. Different genres are meant to achieve different communication goals such as informing, explaining concepts, or telling a story. Examples of each genre are also provided to illustrate their typical structure and language conventions.
Poetry uses musical language to capture intense experiences or creative perceptions of the world. Unlike prose, poetry has a speaker rather than a narrator and uses formatting like line breaks and stanzas. Poems employ figures of speech, sound devices, rhyme, and rhythm/meter. Common forms include narrative poems, dramatic poems, lyric poems, haikus, sonnets, and free verse.
The document discusses reference and meaning in language. It defines reference as the relationship between linguistic expressions and real world entities. Reference can be referring, where expressions pick out entities, or non-referring. Referring expressions include nouns and names, while non-referring includes words like "very" and "maybe". Reference can also be constant, where an expression always refers to the same entity, or variable, where context determines the referent. Meaning in language can be viewed through either a referential approach, where meaning comes from relating expressions to reality, or a representational approach, where meaning comes from reflecting conceptual structures.
This document defines and provides examples of the 8 common parts of speech in English: nouns, pronouns, verbs, adverbs, adjectives, prepositions, conjunctions, and interjections.

The intersection of AI and pharmaceutical formulation science highlights significant blind spotssystemic gaps in pharmaceutical development, regulatory oversight, quality assurance, and the ethical use of AIthat could jeopardize patient safety and undermine public trust. To move forward effectively, we must address these normalized blind spots, which may arise from outdated assumptions, errors, gaps in previous knowledge, and biases in language or regulatory inertia. This is essential to ensure that AI and formulation science are developed as tools for patient-centered and ethical healthcare.
