Discourse markers are used considerably in Egyptian colloquial Arabic, yet few studies examine them in colloquial Arabic. A mixed-method research design adopting a descriptive corpus-based approach is used to better understand the communicative discourse and vagueness functions of the words bita:ʕ, bita:ʕa, and bitu:ʕ in Egyptian Arabic discourse. This study also highlights the collocational behavior of bita:ʕ, bita:ʕa, and bitu:ʕ as well as their colligation patterns. A correlation is found between colligation patterns of the markers bita:ʕ and its variants and particular discourse and vagueness functions in context. Additionally, the study investigates the morphosyntactic phenomenon in which bita:ʕ has undergone to function as a lexical item. A critical discourse analytical approach is used to explore the indexical and affective attitudinal uses of bita:ʕ, bita:ʕa, and bitu:ʕ in Egyptian spoken discourse. As hypothesized, the study results show that bita:ʕ, bita:ʕa, and bitu:ʕ perform several essential functions in Egyptian daily discourse: possessive, discourse, and vagueness functions. Moreover, the findings show that the words bita:ʕ, bita:ʕa, and bitu:ʕ represent a case of degrammaticalization of a syntactic reanalysis from a grammatical class to a lexical class. Finally, the findings demonstrate a correlation between colligational patterns and certain discourse and vagueness functions.
