Enumerative series from the interactive-informative perspective

Authors

Abstract

This article is an analysis of the enumerative series from an interactive perspective. This perspetive is associated with emphatic trength, with robustness that this series contributes to the argument of which most cases were created. In order to classify such emphatic strength, we have created the Interactive Incidence Index, which results from the belonging of the elements of the series to one of the established sets. These are, from highest to lowest incidence, as follows: a) enumerative series with the presence of semantic groups that are repeated, generally, at the beginning of all its elements or in most of them; b) enumerative series with presence of semantic groups of the same category and whose meanings are very close, if not synonymous; c) enumerative series with presence in the different elements of semantic groups whose meanings differ, but whose class of words is the same, as well as their gender, number, verbal inflection; d) series formed by (verbal, nominal, adjectival, etc.) semantic groups that add intention and content, but are as heterogeneous in meaning as in form, and e) series formed by lists of words that only provide information, but not argumentative reinforcement.
