Açıklama

The capacity of the speaker to present itself as 'I' within enunciation; the condition of subject formation in language. According to Benveniste, 'ego is the one who says ego'; subjectivity is not primarily a phenomenological or psychological characteristic but a linguistic one. Studies show how pronoun usage, emotional language, and generalizations construct the subjectivity of the speaking subject.
