Discourse particles, interaction and enunciative approach

Abstract

This paper aims to provide a new perspective on the study of discourse particles by analyzing some elements of metaoperational grammar as a starting point. Specifically, the approach will be focused on the application of three fundamental criteria for the enunciative analysis of utterances (information, the utterer’s attitudes, and reference to the speaker). This perspective will help to explore the explanatory potential of this grammatical approach in the study of discourse particles in the Spanish language.
