摘要：Conjunctions are the most obvious clues for restricting the interpretation of a semantic relation in order to be well understood (Dooley & Levinsohn 2001). This study investigates conjunctions in Iranian sport live radio and TV talks based on Dooley & Levinsohn (ibid.). Selecting 200 minutes of 20 different sport live radio and TV recorded programs, we present conjunctions functionality by comparing their extent of occurrence frequency using T-test. Results supports that associatives are most frequently used while adversatives are the least. Additives, adversatives, and developmental markers (but not associatives) hold a meaningful difference between their applications in the corpus. Finally, conjunctions are reported to have a significant relation in their utilization in the two sets of data.
