ON THE NOTION OF POLITENESS IMPLICATURE AND ITS REFLECTION IN INFORMAL INTERVIEWS

Abstract

The present paper has a specific aim of focusing on the ways of manifestation and patterns of politeness implicatures as well as of its particular case implicature. The term implicature is something meant, implied, or suggested distinct from what is said. The notions of politeness and implicature are key concepts in the field of pragmatics. Politeness implicatures arise in conversation, and they are not simply indirect meanings arising from recognition of speaker intentions by hearers, but rather arise from joint, collaborative interaction between speakers and hearers. Among linguistic researches regarding the strategical aspects of communication: communicative, rhetorical, pragmatic, the strategies of politeness are the most important.
