| Sumari: | The language of the telephone conversations by hotel receptionists is
very special one which has its own characteristics that make it different from
other genres of language. This study aims at conducting a discourse analysis
of telephone conversations in English and Vietnamese. The descriptive and
contrastive methods are employed to give a detailed description of some
typical discourse features and to point out the similarities and differences
between English and Vietnamese telephone conversations in terms of layout
structures, lexical choices, and syntactic structures. The findings of this study
are presented based on a survey of 50 samples in English and 50 samples in
Vietnamese which are taken from well- known textbooks, tapes and recorded
telephone conversations at the hotel. The findings put forward implications
for receptionists, language teachers and learners alike. |
