This document discusses speech acts and communicative strategies. It defines speech acts as utterances with intended actions and explains the main families of speech acts: assertives, directives, commissives, expressives, and declarations. Direct speech acts are explained with grammatical structure while indirect speech acts use interrogative structure. Examples are given of direct and indirect speech acts. Communicative strategies discussed include ways to start a conversation, establish topic limitations, shift topics, and repair miscommunications. The document encourages recognizing these elements in everyday conversations and completing activities on speech acts and communicative strategies.
