Abstract

The article is devoted to the study of the historical dynamics of expressive speech acts of performative forms in the German dialogical discourse and defining diachronically permanent and variable characteristics of expressive performative acts. Historical changes in expressive performative speech acts include performative verbs and their pragmatic markers. In the discourse of the XX-XXI centuries, the number of explicit performative verbs and markers with the semantics of apology decreases, while the frequency of implicit expressive performatives and expressive performative speech acts of apology in the metacommunicative function increases.
