Abstract
The article deals with the analysis of the discourse markers historical dynamics taking into account the research works of the theory of the grammaticalization. The term “grammaticalization” has been analyzed. The most well-known understanding of the grammaticalization is a type of the semantic change by which a lexical item or a construction changes into one that serves a grammatical function, or a grammatical item develops a new grammatical function. It is also frequently described as leading from lexical to grammatical (functional) categories. The grammaticalization is considered as an integrated, sequential process that consists of four stages. While the grammaticalization has both a synchronic and a diachronic dimension, its foundation is diachronic in nature. The stages of the grammaticalization are suggested and the development of the discourse marker besides is defined from a full lexical form in Old English to an adverb of extension in Middle English, and to a sentential adverb and to ultimately a discourse marker in the Early New English Language.
