Abstract

The article formulates the principle of conflict-free language communication that grounds in effective conceptual interaction of its participants and determines its effectiveness. Considering it strictly within the linguistic context the author posits a conflict-free communication as normal communication, excluding contradictory, ambiguous functional interpretation of language unit semantics, as well as undesirable inferences and implications evoked by hearer’s processing the information received in linguistic form. The analysis of factors ensuring conflict-free communication results in reasoning that the most important among them is alignment of the communication participants’ conceptual systems that means their sharing general and professional knowledge by its volume and structure, having common world views, opinions, and evaluation criteria, as well as normative use of lexical units, phraseology, and grammar. The research discloses cognitive and language strategies and tactics of conflict-free communication through the analysis of mechanisms and specific means of meaning creation and interpretation used by the participants, by listing language ways of avoiding ambiguous meaning interpretations related to possible negative implications and inferences.
