Abstract

This research focuses on relevance marking in lectures. On the basis of an analysis of lectures from the British Academic Spoken English (BASE) corpus, the lexicogrammatical devices are identified that lecturers use to indicate the comparative relevance or importance of parts of their discourse (e.g. the point is, this is important to remember, I want to emphasise; irrelevant; anyway; ignore; not write down).
