Abstract

The article considers condolence as a form of English speech etiquette, analyzed as an expressive speech act. The relevance of teaching speech etiquette in a situation of condolence lies in the fact that the effectiveness of learning English increases in the conditions of modeling a real communicative situation. Linguistic means of speech act expression are considered. It introduces sociolinguistics by means of five areas of research: quantitative sociolinguistics, conversation analysis, register variation, discourse analysis, and the sociology of language.

Highlights

  • The relations between the units of text expressed explicitly and implicitly are refracted through the prism of the consciousness of the sender and recipient of speech, they are aware of, as a result of which there is an understanding of the meaning of the text in full

  • The finished text distinguishes sentences with reduced propositions based on presumption and sentences with reduced propositions based on presupposition

  • Implicitness is a discrepancy between the content plan and the expression plan, an asymmetry

Summary

Introduction

The relations between the units of text expressed explicitly and implicitly are refracted through the prism of the consciousness of the sender and recipient of speech, they are aware of, as a result of which there is an understanding of the meaning of the text in full. Any situation is a complex unity consisting of a number of smaller propositions connected logically and structurally. In the process of encoding a mental situation by language means, the sender of the message solves the problem of the ratio of explicitly and implicitly expressed transmitted information. A number of propositions that describe this situation and appear to the author to be insignificant or restored from the content, do not find explicit expression in the finished text, and are reduced. The language projections of such utterances are a simple sentence, a complex sentence of different types (compound and compound), and a complex syntactic whole [2]
