Abstract

While metadiscourse use has been well-attended in second language (L2) writing research, relatively less effort has been made in documenting changing patterns of metadiscourse use among L2 writers. The present study addressed this gap by probing a diachronic change of interactive metadiscourse in research articles published in English Teaching across a span of 40 years. Using the corpus of 931 articles written by Korean L2 writers, we examined whether, and to what extent, interactive metadiscourse use in academic writing had changed over time. Our findings revealed an overall increase in the frequency of interactive resources mainly driven by a significant increase of evidentials. The observed pattern of change in interactives suggests that academic discourse within the applied linguistics community in Korea is becoming more persuasive and reader-oriented over time, consistent with Hyland and Jiang (2018) who reported a dramatic rise in interactive metadiscourse in the global discourse community of applied linguistics.

英语教学文章中互动元语篇模式的变化
虽然元语篇的使用在第二语言写作研究中得到了广泛关注,但在记录第二语言作者使用元语篇的变化模式方面所做的努力相对较少。本研究通过探讨40年来发表在《英语教学》杂志上的研究文章中互动元话语的历时变化来弥补这一空白。我们使用931篇韩国第二语言作者的文章的语料库,研究了学术写作中交互式元话语的使用是否以及在多大程度上随着时间的推移而发生了变化。我们的研究结果显示,互动资源的频率总体上有所增加,主要是由证据的显著增加所驱动的。观察到的互动变化模式表明,随着时间的推移,韩国应用语言学社区内的学术话语正变得越来越有说服力和以读者为导向,这与Hyland和Jiang(2018)的报告一致,他们报告了全球应用语言学话语社区中互动元话语的急剧上升。
