What is a "discourse marker"?
A discourse marker is a word or phrase used in conversation to guide the flow of speech, indicate a change in topic, or express the speaker's attitude. These markers help organize discourse and make it easier for listeners to follow the speaker's thoughts. Common examples include "well," "so," "however," and "you know." For instance, someone might say, "So, I went to the store yesterday," where "so" signals a transition to a new point. Discourse markers are important in spoken language because they enhance communication by providing cues about the structure and direction of the conversation.
