Summary
Basic Connection Indicators in the Macedonian Language – Anaphoric Function of the Article
Text linguistics is considered to be a modern area of study in the science of language in which the research subject is not only the text understood and treated as multi-level structure and completely organized multi-dimensionalmacrosign, but also involves its analysis as a linguistic unit, not only as a construction or folding structure, but also its role in the context (the text in the context). It is easy to arrive to the notion of discourse if text is analyzed, as a process and an event, in context.
The most important problems in text linguistics include:
Linearization;
Multiple sentence structures;
Cohesion and coherence;
Subjectivity;
Communicability;
Dialogicality;
Text pragmatics.
Research in this discipline is concentrated on the following topics:
Communicational character of text conditioning its organization, its semantics and above all, its pragmatics,
Creation of text as a multiple sentence unit (a single whole) requiring other non-exclusively linguistic or grammatical categories of description, primarily, processes of acquisition and unification (synthesis) of information that include its linear character (anaphoric and cataphoric relations),
Functional sentence perspective,
Indirect (immediate) information with implications and presuppositions,
Problem of text cohesion and coherence,
Typology texts and their genres, types and style variants,
Text composition (passages, chapters, paragraphs).
The question of connectivity or conjunction of language elements in a text rises as the main problem in linguistic textology, in addition to the role of text-context in and of the paralinguistic elements – prosody and intonation, and nonverbal elements – kinesics, proxemy, haptics, chronemics in text and discourse construction. Accordingly, two kinds of such connectivity can be distinguished: cohesion and coherence. •Cohesion is considered to be a relation between two successive sentence elements or larger text fragments (paragraphs, chapters, larger narrative fragments). We can single out, for example, cohesion in one simple or complex clause. It has superficial indicators (for example conjunctions and metaoperators) and is verbalized as opposite to implications and presuppositions, which are contextually conditioned or derived from the speakers and listeners common knowledge.
