Domain-specific¶

- SFL is a major member of the family, with a distinctive theory of language as a meaning-making social semiotic and of the clause as message, exchange, and representation
This sourceHalliday & Matthiessen's Introduction to Functional Grammar organizes the clause as message (textual), exchange (interpersonal), and representation (ideational), within Halliday's social-semiotic framing of language. Halliday & Matthiessen's IFG sets out the ideational/interpersonal/textual metafunctional architecture as SFL's defining organizing principle.

Mechanisms¶
- Paraphrase-Difference Test
- Its strength is catching the specific, high-consequence losses — a dropped may, a vanished exception, a flattened speaker — that make a paraphrase quietly false while it still reads faithful.
This sourceShows that modal wording such as 'may' encodes degree and speaker assessment, and that speaker attribution is a grammatical meaning rather than expendable surface form.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 2 citations: 1 supported. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
