      abstract = {Discourses of Southeast Asia presents the latest Southeast  Asian research in Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL).  SFL provides a sophisticated social semiotic architecture  for exploring meaning in languages and texts in the context  of Southeast Asia. This edited volume examines the  ideational, interpersonal and textual metafunctions in the  domains of education, media, translation and language  typology. It applies SFL in text analysis so as to be  relevant to theory, research and professional practice.  This book brings together 12 original chapters by both  seasoned and emerging scholars. Their chapters study the  'native languages of Southeast Asia: Indonesian, Malay,  Tagalog, Thai and Vietnamese, and relatively newer  languages in Southeast Asia: English and Mandarin. The  chapters analyze a variety of texts, namely advertisements,  classroom interactions, corporate reports, dramas,  interviews, media reports, narratives, novels, textbooks  and video clips. This volume captures the exciting and  productive state of the art of SFL in Southeast Asia. It  will be of particular interest to scholars trying to  understand the application of SFL in this region.},
