Bücher von Nydia Flores-Ferran

In this book, Nydia Flores-Ferrn offers a comprehensive examination of linguistic intensification in Spanish and English communication. Flores-Ferrn examines how intensification is defined as well as the various linguistic features, strategies, and devices we employ to escalate and amplify our oral and written communication. The book builds on a rich body of literature, exploring the conceptualization of linguistic intensification within socio-pragmatics and Persuasion Theory. This book also demonstrates the applicability of intensification in language learning by discussing techniques native speakers use to amplify the illocution of their communication.
