Resumo

Estudos sobre o metadiscurso concentram-se em como os gêneros delineiam nuances das características linguísticas que residem em várias estruturas, dependendo das exigências linguísticas da linguagem para fins específicos. Para entender como essas nuances se manifestam a partir de um repertório de características metadiscursivas em um discurso altamente contextualizado, este artigo explora como os recursos metadiscursivos são utilizados na engenharia aeronáutica e aeroespacial, e como estes facilitam a escrita de um texto na área da aviação. Por meio dos pressupostos analíticos de recursos interativos e interacionais de Hyland e Tse (2004) e Hyland (2005, 2010), este estudo examina um corpus com um total de 125.298 palavras, composto de trinta artigos de pesquisa publicados no Journal of Aeronautics and Aerospace Engineering. O estudo mostra que os marcadores metadiscursivos assemelham-se aos de Hyland e Tse (2004) e Hyland (2005, 2010) em relação aos marcadores interativos e interacionais, que contêm características semelhantes à escrita acadêmica, tais como formalidade e objetividade. Entretanto, no uso de recursos interacionais percebe-se informalidade por meio do uso de auto menções. A análise quantitativa ressalta uma frequência maior de marcadores interativos do que marcadores interacionais nos trinta artigos. Dessa forma, conclui-se que os autores de artigos de engenharia aeronáutica e aeroespacial empregam essencialmente mais recursos interativos do que recursos interacionais, o que pode sugerir que tenham uma preocupação em tornar o texto mais coeso, ao mesmo tempo em que se responsabilizam por estabelecer uma postura interpessoal em relação aos conteúdos proposicionais e ao público do texto. Os resultados deste estudo apresentam implicações pedagógicas sobre como escritores da área de engenharia aeronáutica e aeroespacial podem efetivamente escrever seus artigos por meio do uso estratégico de marcadores metadiscursivos.
