Comparative Analysis of Rhetorical Moves in Student and Professional Project Proposal Abstracts
Business and Professional Communication Quarterly. 2024. Vol. 87. No. 1. P. 60–73.
Currently, the analysis of rhetorical moves is extensively applied to business genre
conventions. This paper adopts a corpus-assisted genre approach to compare three
major rhetorical moves in corpora of students’ and professionals’ project proposal
abstracts to elicit evidence-based recommendations for the pedagogy of business
communication. The findings indicate that, while overall features in the proposal
abstracts written by actual business professionals and those by students of business
vary quantitatively but not qualitatively, students focus more on the aim of the
project, and professionals tend to evenly highlight all sides of the project and position
it within the context.

В нганасанском языке существует сложная система чередования гласных в суффиксах, которая восходит к противопоставлению переднего и заднего рядов, но в результате многих передвижений гласных лишилась фонетической мотивации. Из всех суффиксов есть один глагольный, который, присоединяясь к корням, выражающим визуально наблюдаемые свойства, способен принимать гласные обоих сингармонических классов, соответственно меняя гласные и всех аффиксов, следующих за ...

Рассматриваются формы сравнительной степени прилагательных, которые возникли в диалектахсеверных тунгусо-маньчжурских языков. Морфологическая сравнительная степень ‒ типологически довольно редкое явление, которое отсутствует, в том числе, в большинстве языков Сибири. Однако во многих диалектах эвенкийского, эвенского и негидальского языков эти формы появились, грамматикализовавшись в континентальных диалектах из селективного показателя, а в быстринском эвенском (Камчатка) ‒ из аттенуатива. ...

Previous EEG studies demonstrated ample evidence for a major influence of morphological regularity on inflectional processing. However, regularity effects may be attributed to different properties of inflectional classes: to type frequency, to productivity, or to defaultness (assumed only in some models). In many languages, these factors cannot be teased apart, but it is possible in ...
