COHESION
Cohesion is the network of lexical, grammatical, and other relation which provide links between various parts of a text
![Page 3: Textual equivalence](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081720/55848bafd8b42aa4028b51c0/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
FIVE MAIN COHESIVE DEVICES IN ENGLISH1. Reference2. Substitution3. Ellipsis4. Conjunction5. Lexical cohesion
![Page 4: Textual equivalence](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081720/55848bafd8b42aa4028b51c0/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
REFERENCE The term reference is traditionally used
in semantics for the relationship which holds between a word and what it points to in the real world.
The word “chair” referring to something that made of wood, use to sit, etc
![Page 5: Textual equivalence](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081720/55848bafd8b42aa4028b51c0/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Instead of denoting a direct relationship between words and extra linguistics objects, reference is limited here to the relationship of identity which holds between two linguistics expression.
“Mrs. Thatcher has resigned. She announced her decision this morning”
![Page 6: Textual equivalence](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081720/55848bafd8b42aa4028b51c0/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
“Mrs. Thatcher has resigned. She announced her decision this morning”
The pronoun “She” points to Mrs. Thatcher within the textual words itself.
![Page 7: Textual equivalence](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081720/55848bafd8b42aa4028b51c0/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
The most common reference items in English and a large number of other languages are pronouns.
Apart from personal reference, English also uses items such as the, this, and those to establish similar links between expression in the text.
![Page 8: Textual equivalence](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081720/55848bafd8b42aa4028b51c0/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Mrs. Thatcher has resigned. This delighted her opponents.
In this sentence, the reader has to go back to the previous stretch of discourse to establish what This refers to.
![Page 9: Textual equivalence](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081720/55848bafd8b42aa4028b51c0/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
So, reference is a device which allows the reader/the hearer to trace participants, entities, events, etc in a text.
![Page 10: Textual equivalence](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081720/55848bafd8b42aa4028b51c0/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Some languages, unlike English, prefer to use proper names to trace participant through a discourse. So, where English would normally use a pronoun refer to a participant who has already been introduced, Hebrew is more likely to repeat the participant’s name, it is also happened in Brazilian Portuguese language.
![Page 11: Textual equivalence](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081720/55848bafd8b42aa4028b51c0/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
In some languages, such as Japanese and Chinese, pronouns are hardly ever used and once a participant is introduced, continuity of reference is signalled by omitting the subject of following clauses
So, different preferences exist across language for certain general patterns of reference
![Page 12: Textual equivalence](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081720/55848bafd8b42aa4028b51c0/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
SUBSTITUTION AND ELLIPSIS Substitution and ellipsis are grammatical rather than semantic relationship. In substitution, an item is replaced by another item
![Page 13: Textual equivalence](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081720/55848bafd8b42aa4028b51c0/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
I like movies And I doIn the example above, do is a substitute for like
movies.Items commonly used in substitution in English
include do, one, the same.
![Page 14: Textual equivalence](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081720/55848bafd8b42aa4028b51c0/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
You think Joan already knows? – I think everybody does. (Does replaces knows)
My axes is too blunt. I must get a sharper one (One replaces axes)
A: I’ll have two poached eggs on toast, please. B: I’ll have the same. (The same replaces two
poached eggs on toast)
![Page 15: Textual equivalence](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081720/55848bafd8b42aa4028b51c0/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Ellipsis involves the omission of an item. In other words, in ellipsis, an item is replaced by nothing
Joan brought some carnations, and Catherine some sweet peas. (elliptic item: brought in second clause).
![Page 16: Textual equivalence](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081720/55848bafd8b42aa4028b51c0/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
The operation of substitution and ellipsis in English are not the same with other languages, for example Arabic.
Every language has its own battery of devices for creating links between textual elements.
Arabic uses a number of devices which cannot be easily represented in back translation.
![Page 17: Textual equivalence](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081720/55848bafd8b42aa4028b51c0/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Unlike the Arabic grammatical system, the English system makes very few distinctions in term of number, gender, and verb agreement
![Page 18: Textual equivalence](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081720/55848bafd8b42aa4028b51c0/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
CONJUNCTION Conjunction involves the use of formal
markers to relate sentences, clauses and paragraphs to each other. Unlike reference, substitution, and ellipsis, of conjunction does not instruct the reader to supply missing information either by looking for it elsewhere in the text or by filling structural slots.
![Page 19: Textual equivalence](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081720/55848bafd8b42aa4028b51c0/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
CONJUCTIONConjunction : involves the use of formal markers to relate sentences, clauses and paragraphs to each other. Unlike reference, substitution, and ellipsis, theuse of conjunction does not instruct the reader to supply missing information either by looking for it elsewhere in the text or by filling structural slots. Instead, conjunction signals the way the writer wants the reader to relatewhat is about to be said.
![Page 20: Textual equivalence](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081720/55848bafd8b42aa4028b51c0/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
TYPE OF CONJUNCTIONa. additive: and, or, also, in addition,
furthermore, besides,similarly, likewise, by contrast, for instance.
b. adversative: but, yet, however, instead, on the other hand.
c. causal: so, consequently, it follows, for, because, underthe circumstances, for this reason
e. continuatives now, of course, well, anyway, surely, after all
![Page 21: Textual equivalence](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081720/55848bafd8b42aa4028b51c0/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
a. English, a temporal relation may be expressed by means ofverb such asfollow or precede, and a causal relation is inherent in the meanings of verbssuch as cause and lead to.
b. a temporal relation may be expressed by means of a verb such asfollow or precede, and a causal relation is inherent in the meanings of verbssuch as cause and lead to.
c. conjunctive relations do not justreflect relations between external phenomena, but may also be set up toreflect relations which are internal to the text or communicative situation.
![Page 22: Textual equivalence](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081720/55848bafd8b42aa4028b51c0/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
temporal relations are not restricted to sequence in real time;they may reflect stages in the unfolding text. A good example is the use offirst, second, and third in this paragraph.
whether conjunctions which occur within sentences can be considered cohesive, since cohesionis considered by some linguists to be a relation between sentences ratherthan within sentences .
![Page 23: Textual equivalence](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081720/55848bafd8b42aa4028b51c0/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
For example : After they had fought the battle, it snowed.
by afterward They fought a battle. Afterwards, it snowed.
Compared to Arabic, English generally prefers to present information in relatively small chunks and to signal the relationship between.
![Page 24: Textual equivalence](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081720/55848bafd8b42aa4028b51c0/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
The following is an example of a fairly free translation into Arabic.
The translated version conforms more to Arabic than to English norms ofcohesion. Not in particular, the use of typical.
for example : the use of typical Arabic conjunctions: wa(roughly: ‘and’),5 hatha-wa (literally: ‘this and’), and kama (roughly: ‘also’/
![Page 25: Textual equivalence](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081720/55848bafd8b42aa4028b51c0/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
conjuction in english English: Today (temporal); so (causal); because ( causal) but(adversative )
and yet (additive + adversative),
howeve (adversative); and finally (additive +
temporal);
![Page 26: Textual equivalence](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081720/55848bafd8b42aa4028b51c0/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
German: Today (temporal); so (causal); on the one hand (additive, comparison), but on the
other hand (adversative + additive, comparison); finally (temporal); now (continuative, with additional force of adversative); yet (adversative), because (causal); and then (adversative), for this purpose (causal); lastly (temporal); now (continuative or concession – see below); however/in any event (adversative); There are noticeably fewer conjunctions in the English text
(eight) than in the German (twelve). German seems to be generally more
conjunctive than English7 The use of explicit conjunction.
![Page 27: Textual equivalence](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081720/55848bafd8b42aa4028b51c0/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
LEXICAL COHESION Lexical cohesion refers to the role
played by the selection of vocabulary inorganizing relations within a text.
lexical cohesion into two main categories:
reiteration and collocation.
![Page 28: Textual equivalence](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081720/55848bafd8b42aa4028b51c0/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
REITERATION Reiteration : as the name suggests, involvesrepetition
of lexical items. A reiterated item may be repetition of an earlier item, a synonym or near-synonym, a superordinate, or a general word.
Example of Reiteration :
There’s a boy climbing that tree.
a. The boy is going to fall if he doesn’t take care. (repetition)
b. The lad’s going to fall if he doesn’t take care. (synonym)
c. The child’s going to fall if he doesn’t take care. (superordinate)
d. The idiot’s going to fall if he doesn’t take care. (general word)
![Page 29: Textual equivalence](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081720/55848bafd8b42aa4028b51c0/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
COLLOCATION Collocation, as a sub-class of lexical
cohesion which involves a pair of lexical items that are associated with each other in the language in some way.
![Page 30: Textual equivalence](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081720/55848bafd8b42aa4028b51c0/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
THE EXAMPLE PAIRS OF COLLOCATION - Various kinds of oppositeness of meaning: e.g. boy/girl;
love/hate; order/obey. - Associations between pairs of words from the same
ordered series: e.g.Tuesday/Thursday; August/December;
dollar/cent. - Associations between pairs of words from unordered
lexical sets: e.g.part–whole relations: car/brake; body/arm;
bicycle/wheel; - Part–part relations: mouth/chin; verse/chorus;co-
hyponymy: red/green (colour); chair/table (furniture). - Associations based on a history of co-occurrence
(collocation proper)
