Abstract
The article discusses the ways of the syntactic-semantic expression of the pragmatic meaning of evidence and assertion in the English scientific-educational discourse on the basis of the pragmalinguistic cooperative principle suggested by H. P. Grice. The main problems are connected with the peculiarities of the pragmalinguistic analysis of assertive speech acts. The paper contains the description of the notions “implicature”, “cooperative principle” and “scientific-educational discourse”. The author concludes that the pragmatic categories of the cooperative principle determine the choice of linguistic units and the structure of assertive acts in the process of scientific-educational communication.
