Abstract
dc.description.abstract
It is agreed that in order for a stretch of language to constitute a text, it has to form a unified whole (see, for example, Halliday and Hasan, 1976, de Beaugrande and Dressler, 1981,
Martins, 1992). Language cannot be seen as mere units in isolation. The components of
language, whether grammatical,semantic or pragmatic, have to be interrelated and, in actual language use, they always are. It is at this level that the concept of cohesion becomes of paramount importance because it is a supra-sentential phenomenon (Corvalán and Zenteno, 2009). By supra-sentential, we mean that it is a phenomenon whose boundaries go
beyond the sentence and which is related to the meaning conveyed by linguistic units used in combination.
