Abstract: Traditionally, formal linguistic approaches have assumed that a ective stance (Ochs 1992, Ja e 2009) is not part of a linguistic expression's semantics, although recent approaches have sought to integrate stance and other aspects of social discourse into semantic approaches (McConnell-Ginet 2002, 2006, 2008; Potts 2003, 2005). In this paper I will outline some of the de nitional and methodological areas of concern in current stance research.
