Nguyễn Thị Quỳnh Hoa English language Ngôn ngữ Anh English linguistics discourse analysis instructions The language of instructions is a very essential one which has its own characteristics that made it different from other languages. This study is an investigation into the instructions on making traditional dishes in English and Vietnamese. The descriptive and contrastive methods were employed to discover the layout patterns, syntactic features, lexical choices, and cohesive devices. Then based on the investigation results, this study found the similarities and differences between instructions on making traditional dishes in English and those in Vietnamese.

The descriptive and contrastive methods were employed to discover the layout patterns, syntactic features, lexical choices, and cohesive devices. Then based on the investigation results, this study found the similarities and differences between instructions on making traditional dishes in English and those in Vietnamese. In addition, the findings of this study were presented based on a survey of 10 instructions on making traditional dishes in English and other 10 ones in Vietnamese which were transcribed and collected from instruction videos on making traditional dishes of famous chefs.
