| Abstract
|
:
|
This work, at its heart, is an exploratory attempt to investigate the complex nature of the pervasive, yet underexplored act of disagreement among Arabic speakers in Computer-Mediated Communication. It provides (i) an account of the semantics and pragmatics of the act of disagreement, as performed by Arabic speakers, (ii) a sociolinguistic look into gender differences between Arab males and females in their expression of disagreement and (iii) an examination of the effect of discourse topic on disagreement.
