Misschien maar even over preferentie - The Modal Particles even, maar and misschien in Preferred and Non-preferred Responses

Research master thesis | Linguistics (research) (MA)
This thesis focuses on the relation between preference and particles. It researches the modal particles 'even', 'maar' and 'misschien', used in informal telephone conversations. I analyse all occurrences of these particles in a second pair part that answers a question, to be able to see if these mitigating particles are used to mitigate the non-preference, as expected.
