    (Cukurova Univ, 2014) Genc, Bilal; Goksu, Ali; Buyukkarci, Kagan
    The research presented in this paper aimed to investigate the linguistic and discourse characteristics of Mr. Obama's press conferences held after the G-20 summits in London in 2009, in Toronto in 2010 and in Cannes in 2011. The President's speeches consist of two main sections: (1) the first section during which he spoke about his plans to deepen international connections and the second during which he answered the questions of journalists from different nationalities-question/answer session considered as spontaneous speech text and labeled a TC, LC and CC. Using concordance software, the number of types and tokens and the type-token ratio were calculated. The results show that although the number of tokens decreases chronically, in terms of the qualitative analysis all speeches display similar characteristics regarding vocabulary variation.
