10. Summary of the findings of the thesis:
This paper study has presented theoretically fundamental theories of text linguistics and Discourse Analysis including basic concepts (text, discourse, Utterance, coherence and Cohesion ..); 2) Cohesion - the most pivotal characteristics of a text; 3) Cohesive devices and techniques in a text.
In the subsequent chapter, this study focused on the analysis of conjunction devices in detail (as subordinating conjunctions) which are characterized by forms and expressions of identity. On that basis, roughly 100 conjunctions in Vietnamese have been analyzed in this thesis, thereby introducing nine categories according to the criteria for the classification of conjunctions. Additionally, the study included statements containing conjunctions describing results and summary via an investigation and analysis of scientific papers published in Journal of Military Pharmaco – Medicine.
The chapter 2 gives a detailed discription of conjunctions selected in the study (such as therefore, because, so, consequently, briefly, general speaking/ broadly speaking) where the structural connections of these statements have been exposed. These conjunctions signal the logical relationship between two statements (introduction and conclusion).
Chapter 3 explored the argument and semantic value of statements (possibly chains of sentences in the interpretation of scientific texts. These chains themselves consisting of transitional words were regarded as “sub-text”, which in turn formed a sub-argument. The premise statements (subject) are primarily one (or more) arguments constituting the conclusion (end of statements)
The thesis also gave the evidences that there might be more (n) statements rather than one statement formed from subjects and conclusions (n ≥ 2). Take each sentence comprising conjunctions into consideration, we can observe that it is the expansion of the statement that makes the argument more diverse and persuasive
11. Practical applicability, if any:
The findings of this thesis contribute to make it 1) Clear and accurate comprehension and interpretation; 2) Helpful for more quick and concise text summarization; 3) More systematical in learning and teaching the Vietname language; 4) To facilitate the compilation process of Vietnamese Non-Verbal Dictionary.
12. Further research directions, if any: Further study on these issues is needed.
13. Thesis-related publications: No
