    In discourse analysis, a discourse marker is a word or phrase that marks a boundary in a discourse, typically as part of a dialogue. Discourse markers often signal the introduction of a new topic.
    Common discourse markers used in the English language include "you know", "actually", "basically", "like", "I mean" and "OK".
