On a Combined Analysis Framework for Multimodal Discourse Analysis

When people communicate,they do not only use language,that is,a single mode of communication,but also simultaneously use body languages,eye contacts,pictures,etc,which is called multimodal communication.The multimodal communication,as a matter of fact,is the most natural way of communication.Therefore,in order to make a complete discourse analysis,all the modes involved in an interaction or discourse should be taken into account and the new analysis framework for Multimodal Discourse Analysis ought to be created to move forward such type of analysis.In this passage,the author makes a tentative move to shape a new analysis framework for Multimodal Discourse Analysis.
