摘要本文分析了两个伦敦英语口语语料库：语言创新者语料库（LIC）和伦敦青少年语料库（COLT）中特殊语用标记语的使用情况。我们发现，根据性别，种族和地理位置的变化，与每个语用标记的不同分布。你给我的创新实用标记在非盎格鲁哈克尼居民中最常见，表明伦敦内的创新。我们认为，一些语用标记，最明显的是你得到我，应该被视为多元文化伦敦英语的元素，沿着已经被记录的其他功能。
Abstract This article analyses the use of particular pragmatic markers in two corpora of spoken London English: the Linguistic Innovators Corpus (LIC) and the Corpus of London Teenage Language (COLT). We found variation according to sex, ethnicity and geographical location, with a different distribution for each pragmatic marker. The innovative pragmatic marker you get me was most frequent among male non-Anglo Hackney residents, indicating innovation in inner London. We argue that a number of pragmatic markers, most notably you get me, should be regarded as elements of Multicultural London English, along with other features that have already been documented.
