  • This study investigates the use and function of click sounds in Irish English. These paralinguistic elements are multifunctional and similar to linguistic discoursepragmatic markers. In addition to their discourse and pragmatic functions, they also index social meanings and are shown to be connected with assertive and authoritative stances.
