English as a global language is now a well-established concept and there is a massive body of research and articles on its inception, development, social status, to name but a few. One of the major areas of concern in the field has been the linguistic features of English as an international English, or English as a global Lingua Franca. Key research into the common features of ELF has been conducted through the analysis of, for example, the ‘lingua franca core’ (Jenkins, 2000), and the VOICE corpus (Vienna-Oxford International Corpus of English). Seidlhofer (2004) argues, however, that it would be premature to launch into a discussion of the teaching of this lingua franca before certain prerequisites have been met. The most important of these are a conceptualization of speakers of lingua franca English as language users in their own right, and the acknowledgment of the legitimacy of, and indeed the need for, a description of salient features of English as a lingua franca (ELF), alongside English as a native language (ENL). The present study is an attempt to shed light on one of these salient features of ELF, namely, how cohesion is created through ABSTRACT

作为全球性的Lingua Franca的英语词汇语法凝聚力：基于语料库的系统功能分析

英语作为一种全球语言，现已成为一个公认的概念，关于其诞生，发展，社会地位等方面的研究和文章很多，仅举几例。该领域中主要关注的领域之一是英语作为国际英语或英语作为全球性的Lingua Franca的语言特征。通过分析“法语通用核心”（Jenkins，2000年）和VOICE语料库（英语-维也纳-牛津国际语料库），对ELF的共同特征进行了关键研究。然而，塞德尔霍弗（Seidlhofer，2004）认为，在满足某些先决条件之前，开始讨论这种通用语言的教学还为时过早。其中最重要的是将讲英语的人概念化为自己的语言使用者，以及对英语作为一种通用语言（ELF）和英语作为一种母语（ENL）的显着特征的合法性的承认，以及确实需要的描述。本研究试图阐明ELF的这些显着特征之一，即如何通过ABSTRACT产生凝聚力
