Abstract

This study attempts at examining the Second Language Users/L2ers' delayed narrative discourse genre. The conventionalized narrative genre sheds the light on the memorial attention through the attitudinal-based proposition. Attention control elaborates the 'skill' acquisition across the declarative-/procedure- knowledge (Lyster, 2007). Declarative and procedural knowledge compose the proceduralisation of language rule-based knowledge through the mental map of human cognitive design across; the conceptual lexicon, propositional information, and multi-propositional discourse (Givon, 2005, p. 65). The data of the study are the narrative writings of L2ers. The narrative discourse is analyzed in terms of Johnstone's componential structure (2002); and the attitudinal content-based information is analyzed following the pragma-appraisal theory (White, 2011). The results of the study depict: 1) on the level of content; a) the pronominal phrases serve the role of an interactional strategy and a conceptualized ego-deictic center; b) the commitment to a temporal-based orientation; c) the topic-selection attainability focus; d) the simplified information chunks; and e) the conventional linear thematic-progression. And on level of structure, the results show; a) the genreic moves' instability across the L2ers writings; b) the consistency of topic selection, participants' identification; and insufficient climax-/resolution-based moves; and c) the deficiency of the procedural knowledge.
