| Abstract | ||
| The current study is set out to present the theoretical concept of stance, as an aspect of interpersonal meaning, into the discourse of sports and to explore the production of stance in sport press conferences. It seeks to provide an account of how patterns of stance are conveyed in such conferences. It detects lexical and grammatical stance markers used by interlocutors in the chosen soccer conferences to achieve what is known as the stance triangle. The study is divided into two sections. The first section provides the theoretical framework of the study. It tackles corpus linguistics, stance-taking, stance markers, and the discourse model of the study (Appraisal Theory by Martin and White, 1999). The second section is dedicated to the practical analysis of the three chosen soccer transcripts. It illustrates the numbers, percentages and instances of stance-taking arriving at the conclusions. | ||
