    Summary Discourse Analysis in Formal Paradigm

    The formal paradigm of discourse analysis focuses on the study of syntax and semantics
    within a formal language framework. Syntax refers to the rules and structures governing
    the arrangement of words and phrases to form grammatically correct sentences. Semantics,
    on the other hand, deals with the meaning and interpretation of words, phrases, and
    sentences. Within the formal paradigm, discourse is defined as language that goes beyond
    individual sentences and encompasses larger units of text. These units are constructed by
    combining simple sentences and other linguistic elements in a meaningful and coherent
    manner. The relationships between these units, known as clauses, play a crucial role in the
    organization and interpretation of discourse. A simple sentence is a fundamental linguistic
    unit that contains a subject and a predicate. The subject is typically a noun phrase,
    representing the entity or topic being discussed, while the predicate is a verb phrase that
    provides information about the subject. These constituent parts, the noun phrase and verb
    phrase, are the building blocks of a simple sentence. For example, in a discourse analysis
    of a conversation between two people, the formal paradigm would involve examining the
    syntactic structures of the sentences exchanged. This would include analyzing the roles of
    noun phrases, such as identifying the subjects and objects of the verbs, as well as the
    functions of verb phrases, such as identifying the tense, aspect, or mood of the verbs used.
    In summary, discourse analysis studying within the formal paradigm investigates how
    language structures and features contribute to the organization and interpretation of
    communication. It emphasizes the examination of grammar, syntax, and semantics to
    understand how they shape meaning and social interactions. The formal paradigm provides
    an objective and systematic approach to studying language and its impact on discourse and
    social interactions. It recognizes that discourse extends beyond individual sentences and is
    constructed by combining linguistic units, such as noun phrases and verb phrases.
