语篇标记词
Discourse markers are more commonly known as “linking words”. They are used to show relationships between ideas. Relationships can range from adding sth. (e.g., also, besides, additionally), to showing contrast (e.g., however, on the other hand), to explaining a reason (e.g., because, since), or to showing a result (e.g., therefore, as
a result). Without discourse markers, the connections between sentences and paragraphs in a text would be less obvious.
