"Just to give you kind of a map of where we are going: A taxonomy of In a nutshell, the study revealed cross-pronominal and disciplinary commonalities in the discourse referents in academic lectures. Furthermore, the above referents were also found to be common to all the three broad knowledge domains. The study revealed three referents –lecturer, students, and lecturer + students – which were common to all the three investigated pronouns. The referents of the tri-PP were identified based on the contextual and co-textual clues. The concordance tool in AntConc was used to search for all instances of the tri-PP. This paper, however, investigates the commonalities in the discourse reference of I, we, and you across three disciplinary supercommunities (DSs): Humanities (HS), Social Sciences (HS), and Natural Sciences (NS), using a corpus from L2 context. In recent times, studies on I, we and you (tri-PP) in academic lectures have focused on the L1 context.
