under Hyland‟s (1998) framework to find the similarities and differences in using hedges in the two series It also suggests an lu some implications for teaching and learning hedges in conversations in the n va textbooks In order to achieve the aims and objectives, a contrastive analysis of gh tn to data is conducted on both qualitative and quantitative approaches The findings of the study show the ways that both native and non-native speakers of English p ie use hedge forms and functions in conversations As a whole, they use similar w words or expressions to hedge their propositional content Lexical hedges are d oa nl more commonly used than non-lexical ones In addition, speakers prefer some forms (modal verbs, lexical verbs and personal attribution) and functions v an lu (reliability-oriented and writer-oriented hedges) to others Moreover, speakers fu an tend to employ more than one hedging device in a sentence or an utterance m ll However, the study also points out some differences in using hedges both oi semantically and functionally Some forms of hedges occur densely in the New nh Interchange series but rarely in Vietnamese high school English textbooks or at z vice versa Similarly, the ranking positions of reader-oriented and attribute- z @ oriented hedges are interchanged in the two series om l.c gm an Lu n va a th c si iv TABLE OF CONTENTS STATEMENT OF

frequency of occurrence for reader-oriented hedges in NIS (n=68) is quite similar to those in VHSET (n=67) Third, in both NIS and VHSET data, the distribution of lexical hedges outnumbers that of non-lexical hedges This may be explained by the an lu preponderant number of lexical hedge‟s sub-categories compared with that of va non-lexical one Semantically, modal auxiliaries occur with the most

in an lu VHSET (n=60) in spite of the larger number of words in VHSET data Epistemic va Lexical Verbs are the second commonly used category in VHSET (28.1%) but n take the third place in NIS (26.5%) VHSET speakers use more modal verbs gh tn to (n=197) than NIS speakers (n=130) It is quite surprising that unlike many other p ie sub-type of lexical hedges, downtoners are less commonly used in VHSET w (n=50) than in NIS (n=89) d oa nl As for non-lexical categories, speakers in NIS tend to use more “Personal Attribution” (n=40) and “Empty Subjects with Lexical Verbs” (n=14) strategies v an lu to hedge their propositional content than VHSET speakers (n=25 and n=9) fu an On the contrary, “Agentless passive constructions” (n=23) and “Hypothetical Conditionals” (n=20) strategies are identified

basis of the lu an contemporary theories about the related concepts including: hedges, politeness va and modality It analyses and compares the forms and functions of hedging n gh tn to devices used in conversations in the two textbook series: one compiled by native speakers (NIS) and one by Vietnamese (VHSET) A contrastive analysis has p ie been done with both qualitative and quantitative approaches To set up a w theoretical base for the study, a review of some key terms has been presented in d oa nl the second part of the study such as: Fuzzy logic, Hedged performative, Lexical v an lu hedges, Non-lexical hedges, Reliability-oriented hedges, Writer-oriented hedges, Attribute-oriented hedges and Reader-oriented hedges They are well defined fu an with classification and examples Besides, some comparisons have been made to oi m ll clarify the reason why speakers employ hedging devices in such different ways nh With the findings and analysis, the study has found the clearest answers to at the research questions Based on the data, the hedging devices are used z z commonly for politeness aims, indirectness, probability and lack of commitment @ gm and to show speaker‟s uncertainty or confidence In addition, in order to meet the om l.c aims and objectives mentioned in the Chapter and for the analysis to be convincible, statistics are shown in forms of tables and charts As a result, Lu hedging devices have been described clearly, carefully and systematically Then, an n va a th c si Stt.010.Mssv.BKD002ac.email.ninhd

Both NIS and VHSET speakers tend to use the same or similar forms and functions of hedges in conversations The frequencies of occurrence of most forms and functions of hedges are quite similar The most preferred hedges lu an occurring in both series are modal verbs which express the degree of n va confidence of the truth of the proposition conversations while Attribute-oriented and reader-oriented hedges are less common in both NIS and VHSET p ie gh tn to Speakers prefer Reliability-oriented hedges and Writer-oriented hedges in w In both sets of data, lexical hedges outnumber those of non-lexical hedges d oa nl and modal verbs are not only the most commonly used hedges, but also an important type of hedge in conversations in NIS and VHSET v an lu Speakers use very few Epistemic Adjectives and no Epistemic Nouns as fu an hedging devices in NIS and VHSET oi VHSET m ll The frequency of reader-oriented hedges in NIS is quite similar to those in nh at Speakers in NIS tend to use more “Personal Attribution” and “Empty z Subjects with Lexical Verbs” strategies to hedge their propositional content z @ than VHSET speakers On the contrary, “Agentless passive gm om more common in VHSET than those in NIS l.c constructions” and “Hypothetical Conditionals” strategies are identified Lu Reliability-oriented and Writer-oriented hedges in VHSET comprise the an higher
