Functions of professional scientific discourse
Kis, Mátyás András ; Baumgartnerová, Alena (oponent) ; Krhutová, Milena (vedoucí práce)
This thesis investigates the parameters of professional discourse in the field of information technology. It aims to explore the linguistic features and functions of discourse in technical and popular scientific texts, and to compare and contrast them. The materials under investigation include technical and popular scientific texts on topics such as computer networks, algorithms, enzymes, and operating systems. The expected results of the study include a deeper understanding of the differences and similarities between technical and popular scientific texts in terms of their linguistic features and discourse functions, as well as insights into the professional context in which these texts are produced and consumed. By shedding light on the distinctive characteristics of professional discourse in the field of information technology, this study aims to contribute to the development of effective communication practices in this important and rapidly evolving field. Through a comprehensive review of relevant literature, this thesis shows that professional discourse in science and technology serves a range of functions, including conveying technical information, persuading others of scientific arguments, and promoting collaboration and innovation within scientific communities. The linguistic features and language strategies used in this discourse help to achieve these functions by providing precise, technical language that is often inaccessible to non-experts but critical for conveying complex scientific concepts accurately. The speech acts used in professional discourse in science and technology vary based on the intended audience and purpose, with communicative acts such as informing, explaining, and persuading being particularly important. Finally, the thesis illustrates how pragmatic contexts, such as social and cultural factors, can significantly impact the production and interpretation of professional discourse in science and technology. Overall, this thesis aims to deepen our understanding of professional discourse in science and technology and its critical role in advancing scientific knowledge and innovation.
