1. discourse analysis is one way to engage in a very important
human task. The task is this: to think more deeply about the meanings we give
people's words so as to make ourselves better, more humane people and the world
a better, more humane place" (J. P. Gee, An Introduction to Discourse Analysis, 2005). (blackred/Getty Images)

Discourse
analysis is sometimes defined as the analysis of language 'beyond the
sentence'. This contrasts with types of analysis more typical of modern
linguistics, which are chiefly concerned with the study of grammar: the study
of smaller bits of language, such as sounds (phonetics and phonology), parts of
words (morphology), meaning (semantics), and the order of words in sentences
(syntax). Discourse analysts study larger chunks of language as they flow
together.

9. Discourse analysis (DA), or discourse studies, is a general term
for a number of approaches to analyze written, vocal, or sign language use, or
any significant semiotic event.The objects of
discourse analysis (discourse, writing, conversation, communicative event) are variously defined in terms of
coherent sequences of sentences, propositions, speech,
or turns-at-talk.
10. discourse analysis is defined as (a)
concerned with language use beyond the boundaries of a
sentence/utterance, (b) concerned with the interrelationships between language
and society and (c) as concerned with the interactive or dialogic properties of
everyday communication.
11. Discourse is the creation and organization of the segments
of a language above as well as below the sentence. It is segments of language
which may be bigger or smaller than a single sentence but the adduced meaning
is always beyond the sentence. The term discourse applies to both spoken and
written language, in fact to any sample of language used for any purpose.
12. Definition
of discourse since its
introduction to modern science the term ‚discourse’ has taken various,
sometimes very broad, meanings. In order to specify which of the numerous
senses is analyzed in the following dissertation it has to be defined.
Originally the word ‚discourse’ comes from Latin ‚discursus‚ which
denoted ‚conversation, speech’. Thus understood, however, discourse refers to
too wide an area of human life, therefore only discourse from the vantage point
of linguistics, and especially applied linguistics, is explained here.
13. Discourse
analysis involves the study of both text and context. (according to schiffrin)
