dc.description.abstractAbstract In the foregrounding model. stylistic value has a slightly different meaning from that which it has in the stylistic variants model referring to the special act of interpretation made in order to make a sense out of a seemingly strange and unmotivated expression. However. there appears to be strong connection between concept of text production and concepts of function and meaning. Meaning is better appreciated when approached from the perspective of its functional significance. This subsumes the implication which the text has regarding the intention of the speaker and the effect on the hearer by virtue of the peculiar manner in which linguistic choices are con figured. in a bid to achieve a desired communicative function. This chapter reports an investigation of the triadic language function in Ododo's Hard Choice using Halliday's lexico-grammatical dimensions of situating pragmatic functions engendered in a discourse. The interplay of the ideational. interpersonal and textual meta-functions has been found to be cardinal in dramatic text as a mutation of real life interactional exchange. The analysis of the play-text reveals that there is a stringent interrelation among text. its motivating context and the envisaged function the eo-text or linguistic patterning is designed to perform.en_US
