for instance,compared English research articles by Anglo-American linguists with Bulgarian and English research articles by Bulgarian linguists and identified considerable differences among the three sets of articles in the use of hedges and boosters to convey different degrees of commitment/detachment.In a similar vein,Vold (2006b) examined the use of selected epistemic modality markers as hedging devices in a corpus of 120 research articles written in English,French and Norwegian,and found evident cross-linguistic differences.Specifically,the English and Norwegian research articles used significantly more hedges than the French research articles did.
