In addition, the participant 'Philippine government' was foregrounded; the rest of the participants were backgrounded. In terms of activity, the performative verbs 'saying' and 'asking' were assigned to the topicalized/thematized participants in the data, thus making these participants agents or actors. © 2010 Blackwell Publishing Ltd. 2010-09-01T07:00:00Z text https://animorepository.dlsu.edu.ph/faculty_research/577 Faculty Research Work Animo Repository Journalism—Authorship English language—Philippines English Language and Literature Journalism Studies |
