TY - JOUR ID - 554470 AU - Chovanec, Jan PY - 2003 TI - The uses of the present tense in headlines PB - Masaryk University CY - Brno SN - 8021032839 KW - present tense KW - headlines KW - media discourse KW - ideational function KW - interpersonal function KW - functional grammar KW - involvement KW - marked vs. unmarked UR - http://www.phil.muni.cz/angl/thepes/thepes_01_09.pdf N2 - The article explores ways the present tense is used in newspaper headlines and explain what function this tense plays. It reports the results of a small study undertaken in order to reveal the general tendencies and patterns of some of the more frequent sentence types used as headlines. The canonical use of the present tense to report past actions is noted and explained with reference to standard grammar. The material under investigation has also indicated a tendency to use the present simple tense in headlines made up of complex sentences, where it occurs in subordinate clauses introducing the circumstances for a more important event expressed non-verbally. The reference of the present tense to past time is explained in view of its universal reference within the system of English tenses, its role as an "internal evaluation device" in narrative and the support it lends to the interpersonal function of headlines.
