The article "Relevance and Linguistic Meaning" by Diane Blakemore explores how discourse markers affect the meaning of language. Blakemore discusses how these markers play a crucial role in communication by signaling relationships between different parts of a conversation. The research delves into the semantics and pragmatics of these markers, shedding light on how they contribute to the overall understanding of a message. The findings suggest that discourse markers are not just filler words but carry significant meaning that influences how we interpret language in context.
