ACKNOWLEGEMENTS I would like to express my sincere thanks and gratitude to the people who assisted and always made the best conditions and environment for me to complete this thesis The first person I would like to send my special thanks to is Prof Dr Hoàng Văn Vân, who spent much of his valuable time supervising and guiding my study I am also indebted to my lecturers in both undergraduate and postgraduate faculties at my university for their precious lectures in linguistics which help me to have the basic and necessary knowledge to carry out this study I also owe many thanks to my family members who gave me great encouragement, my friends and my colleagues who were willing to share my heavy workload at my school so that I could invest my time to this thesis ii TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com ABSTRACT This study investigates the realization of modalization and modulation in commencement addresses made by well-known English speakers The analytical framework of the study is based on M A K Halliday‘s Systemic Functional Grammar theory of modality The data of the research is taken from the analysis of five commencement addresses of Steve Jobs (2005), Bill Gates (2007), Barbara Kingsolver (2008), J K Rowling (2008), and Barack Obama (2009) The results show that modalization and modulation are realized in a variety of forms and expressions which can be modal operators, modal adjuncts, passive verb predicators, and adjective predicators Modalization overtakes modulation in terms of frequency Each group of modal operators and modal adjuncts when being used to realize modalization and modulation has its own effectiveness and specialties iii TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com TABLE OF CONTENTS Declaration…………………………………………………………………… .i
