Construcción discontinua del discurso en alemán como lengua materna: aspectos de la relación entre procedimientos de verbalización y de referencia

Abstract

The aim of this study is investigating oral fluency in native speakers both qualitatively and quantitatively in order to obtain better evaluation measures and a deeper understanding of fluency performance in non-native speakers of German. This article specifically deals with the relation between verbalization procedures and procedures of reference to previous elements. Both are discontinuous procedures of discourse construction in the framework initiated by Elisabeth Gülich and Thomas Kotschi and are supposedly combined to solve formulation problems. In the research area of fluency in foreign language those procedures are considered non-fluent phenomena. Through the analysis of 24 monologic productions of German native speakers, this study wants to determine if these procedures should be considered non-fluent phenomena often combined to solve formulation problems.
