Definition

A model that analyzes language as a network of functionally motivated choices: grammar consists of interrelated systems of alternatives organized to realize three metafunctions—ideational (content), interpersonal (social roles/attitude), and textual (information flow)—within social contexts rather than as only derivational phrase‑structure rules.
