<strong>Contrastive</strong> <strong>Analysis</strong><br />
Discourse <strong>Analysis</strong><br />
Studying language forms without paying attention to language use is incomplete, so contrastive<br />
analysis goes beyond the limitations of structure and analyzes the use of language in<br />
a socio cultural setting.<br />
So all the models of contrastive analysis which neglect the influence of extra-linguistic factors in<br />
speech are defective.<br />
There are some factors, beside linguistic rules which help the transmission of meaning between<br />
the two participants in a conversation:<br />
1- what the speaker thinks the listener knows.<br />
2- The listener attitudes/ behaviors in conversation<br />
3- Mutual agreement or disagreement between participants<br />
4- Shared knowledge<br />
5- Giving a number of verbal and non-verbal cues for mutual understanding
