Abstract Repetition is a natural phenomenon employed to perform a variety of cognitive, psychological, interactional, stylistic, didactic and pragmatic functions in spoken and written discourse. Adopting the method of discourse analysis, the study attempts to explore the pragmatic functions of repetitions as used in spoken dialect narrative discourse. On a propositional level, only those repetitions which establish and maintain co-reference are necessary, all other forms seem to be redundant. However, if we take into account their pragmatic functions, they are not, as the data gathered in the study show. In fact, speakers use them, deliberately or not, as an effective communication strategy in the following functions: to extend the planning time to find a suitable lexeme, to enhance the importance of a lexeme, to emphasize the length of an event, after an interruption, to eliminate uncertainty and to confirm the correctness of the co-speaker’s statement. They also reveal the speakers emotions, like his/her emotional shock, and are used as a part of the so-called conversational duet. The data include the transcripts of the interviews with 6 dialect speakers in the Brda/Collio region, western Slovenia.

自发性方言话语中重复的语用功能

摘要重复是一种自然现象，可用于在口头和书面话语中执行各种认知，心理，互动，风格，教学和语用功能。本研究采用话语分析的方法，试图探讨口语叙事话语中重复的语用功能。在命题层面上，只有那些建立和保持共同指称的重复是必要的，所有其他形式似乎都是多余的。但是，如果我们考虑到它们的实用功能，就不会如研究中收集的数据所示。实际上，说话者有意或无意地将它们用作有效的沟通策略，可用于以下功能：延长计划时间以找到合适的词位，增强词位的重要性，强调事件的持续时间，中断后，消除不确定性并确认联合发言人的陈述的正确性。它们还揭示说话者的情绪，例如他/她的情绪震惊，并被用作所谓对话二重唱的一部分。数据包括斯洛文尼亚西部Brda / Collio地区对6位方言说话者的采访记录。
