Isi artikel

There are a number of English words and phrases used to express contrast between two consecutive sections of expository, written text. In this article, I examine a small group of these: by contrast, in contrast, conversely, on the contrary, at the same time; on the other hand and yet. On syntactic grounds, these words and phrases have been classified as conjunct by Greenbaum, and the logical relationship that they express is classified by Greenbaum as antithetic (Greenbaum 1969). Antithetic conjuncts are, in this framework, a subset of a larger group of contrastive conjuncts which express an adversative relationship, that is, a relationship of variance between two sections of text.
