ABSTRACT
The preceding chapter has afforded a bird’s-eye view of different categories of SLDMs. My hope is that the taxonomy presented there has cleared the ground for much future research, as it would clearly be beyond the scope of the present study to describe in highresolution detail more than a small segment of this vast area. Thus, turning away from the panoramic perspective, we now zoom in on just three major categories. Section 4.1 deals with exemplifiers, Section 4.2 with reformulators and Section 4.3 with inferrers.1 The chapter is rounded off by Section 4.4, which reviews some major themes emerging from the analysis.
