چکیده

The current research reports on a comparative study performed in the field of Corpus Linguistics. The objective of the research was to uncover and analyze the distributional pattern of interactive and interactional metadiscourse features in two modes of academic spoken and written English. For this reason, two corpora of British Academic Written English Corpus and British Academic Spoken English Corpus were used as the representative and balanced data collection sources. In addition, Sketch engine software was exploited as the corpus software by which instances of metadiscourse features were identified and analyzed in concordance lines. For the purpose of identifying and classifying metadiscourse features, Hyland’s model (2005) was exploited in which he classifies metadiscourse features in to two main categories of interactive and interactional. As the data show, in both corpora, the general propensity of the authors was towards the interactive metadiscourse features. In addition, in the written corpus, the transitions and endophoric markers were used more; while in the spoken endophoric markers and transitions were the most applicable metadiscourse features. In the interactional metadiscourse features, hedges and self-mentions were the most applicable ones in the written; whereas, in the spoken self-mentions and boosters were the most used.
