Incongruent and proud: de-vilifying 'nominalization'

Abstract

This rejoinder reviews the interpretation of nominalization and grammatical metaphor in systemic functional linguistic theory and the critical role it plays in constructing knowledge, enabling evaluation and facilitating information flow. It is suggested that different disciplines deploy grammatical metaphor in complementary ways to construct their discourse and that these discourses depend fundamentally on this resource for their existence.
