Textual Variables on the Sentential Level
From the point of view of Arabic/English translation, there are three major non-syntactic features of the sentence:
(i) prosodic, such as intonation or stress.
(ii) theme and rheme; that is the presentation of information as more or less predictable typically through the choice of a particular sequential order of elements within the sentence.
(iii) foregrounding and backgounding; the presentation of information as more or less important for the overall development of the text.
