This document discusses three levels of speech:
1. Locution refers to the actual words used by the speaker and their semantic meaning.
2. Illocution is the performance of an act in saying something, such as informing, ordering, or promising.
3. Perlocution is the effect speech has on the feelings, thoughts, or actions of the speaker and listener, such as inspiring, persuading, or scaring them.
Speech acts are functional units of communication that speakers perform through utterances. There are three types of meaning conveyed: propositional meaning of the literal words, illocutionary meaning of the intention, and perlocutionary force of the effect on the listener. Speech acts can be categorized as representatives, directives, commissives, expressives, or declarations depending on the intention. Analyzing speech acts and speech events provides insight into the functions and social contexts of language use.
The document discusses the key components of speech events in sociolinguistics. It defines a speech event as a piece of linguistic interaction consisting of one or more utterances. The main constituents of a speech event are the addresser and addressee, the message form, channel, setting, topic, and code. All of these factors interrelate and influence one another in complex ways to shape particular speech events. By studying sociolinguistics and the factors that define speech events, people can learn to communicate appropriately in different social situations.
This document discusses the three types of speech acts: locutionary, illocutionary, and perlocutionary. Locutionary speech acts refer to the literal meaning of what is said. Illocutionary speech acts involve the intention behind what is said, such as making a promise or giving an order. Perlocutionary speech acts aim to change the feelings, thoughts, or actions of the listener through effects like inspiring, convincing, or scaring them. Examples of each type of speech act are provided.
The document discusses speech act theory and illocutionary acts. It explains that whenever someone says something, they perform three simultaneous acts: a locutionary act (the utterance itself), an illocutionary act (the intent or purpose behind the utterance), and a perlocutionary act (the consequences or effects of the utterance). It then describes Searle's classification of illocutionary acts into five categories: assertives, directives, commissives, expressives, and declarations. The document provides examples of direct and indirect speech acts and how the meaning is not always directly expressed and must be inferred.
The document provides instructions for an oral exam assessing students' oral production skills in Spanish. It outlines five criteria that students should be able to demonstrate: asking about and giving information on routines and exercise; discussing frequency of actions; talking about athletes and sports abilities; asking about and describing past experiences, events and vacations; and asking about and describing locations and neighborhoods. It then provides a rubric to evaluate students' role-plays based on the quality of dialogues, interaction between characters, pronunciation, and collaborative work. Students will have 30 minutes to prepare and 5 minutes to perform a role-play involving giving party instructions, asking to bring a friend, and discussing past experiences.

Thought tracking is a strategy where students take on the role of a character from a story. The student portraying the character says what they are thinking or feeling at certain points in the story. Other students can also take turns portraying the character and saying what they think the character is thinking. This allows students to get inside the character's mind and develop empathy and mutual understanding. It can lead to further character analysis and improvisation activities.
This document discusses discourse analysis and pragmatics. It begins by defining discourse analysis as the study of language in context, including both spoken and written forms. Spoken discourse examples include phone calls and interviews, while written discourse includes newspapers and poems. The document then discusses speech acts, including locutionary, illocutionary, and perlocutionary acts. It defines pragmatics as the study of language use in context to explain meanings beyond plain definitions of words. The document uses the example of a football player shouting "Man on!" to illustrate pragmatic meaning.

Interaction in conversation part ii (blog)luiscarl1981
This document summarizes some key interactional features in conversation analysis, including adjacency pairs, preferred/dispreferred sequences, moves and exchanges, and turn-taking. It defines adjacency pairs as the basic unit of interaction composed of two adjacent turns by different speakers. Preferred sequences are seen as more cooperative responses like accepting an invitation, while dispreferred sequences can be face-threatening like rejecting a request. Moves are the basic units that determine how speakers negotiate meaning in an exchange, and can be initiating, expected, or discretionary responses. Turn-taking ensures conversations flow smoothly with implicit signals for speaker changes and one speaker at a time through turn-constructional units.
The document discusses speech acts, which are acts performed when making an utterance. There are three types of speech acts: the illocutionary act which is the intention of the utterance, the utterance act which is saying the words, and the perlocutionary act which is the effect on the listener. It also discusses strategies for speech acts like apologies, requests, and refusals that are influenced by social and cultural factors. The role of language teachers is to help students understand similarities and differences between speech acts in their first and second languages through activities like role plays and discussions.
The document discusses speech act theory, which investigates how meaning can be derived from utterances beyond just their literal semantic meaning. It covers key aspects of speech act theory including locutionary acts (the literal meaning), illocutionary acts (the intended meaning or force), and perlocutionary acts (the effect on the listener). Examples are provided of direct speech acts where the structure matches the function (e.g. a question uses interrogative form) and indirect speech acts where the structure differs from the function (e.g. a statement used as a request). Major classifications of speech acts are presented, including representatives, directives, commissives, expressives, and declarations.
This document provides guidance on improving English language skills such as listening, speaking, reading and writing. It discusses active listening techniques like using filler phrases and rephrasing. It also offers tips for being an appreciator, asking questions and practicing voice exercises. Group activities are suggested for practicing monologues, contractions and telling stories about characters in crisis moments.

Unit II - "Strategies in Various Speech Situation"
This unit focuses on the various ways and situations in which people communicate. It discusses how a communicator's style of speaking changes according to the context and how statements elicit various responses from listeners
This document defines speech acts and outlines three main types: locutionary, illocutionary, and perlocutionary. It also discusses John Austin's speech act theory and John Searle's classification of five types of illocutionary speech acts: assertives, directives, commissives, expressives, and declarations. Assertives express beliefs, directives try to make the listener perform an action, commissives commit the speaker to future actions, expressives convey feelings, and declarations bring about external changes.
Speech acts refer to the intentions and effects of utterances beyond their literal meaning. There are three types of speech acts: locutionary acts involve the actual uttering of words; illocutionary acts perform actions like making statements or requests through utterances; and perlocutionary acts aim to affect the behavior or thoughts of the listener. Scholars like Austin and Searle further categorized speech acts based on their communicative functions, such as declaratives that change the world through language or expressives that convey emotional states. Understanding speech acts is important for comprehending how language is used pragmatically in communication.

This document discusses speech acts and politeness in language. It defines speech acts as the actions performed through utterances, such as apologies, requests, promises, etc. It outlines J.L. Austin's speech act theory, including locutionary, illocutionary and perlocutionary acts. It also discusses John Searle's classification of speech acts and the relationship between direct and indirect speech acts. The document then covers politeness in language, including the concepts of face, social distance and relative power between speakers, and Leech's maxims of politeness.
Pragmatics is the study of meaning in context and how language is used in communication. Speech act theory analyzes utterances as locutionary acts (the words spoken), illocutionary acts (the intention or force behind the words), and perlocutionary acts (the effect on the listener). There are five main speech act sets: representatives that assert facts, directives that command or request, commissives that commit the speaker to actions, expressives that convey attitudes, and declarations that bring about changes through uttering. Apologies typically involve expressing regret, taking responsibility, providing an explanation or offer to repair the situation, and promising non-recurrence. Cultural factors influence apology strategies used.
This document provides an overview of speech acts, including their definition, historical context, research methodologies used to study them, and empirical studies on speech act sets such as apologies, refusals, compliments, complaints, and requests. Speech acts are functional units of communication that depend on social and cultural factors. Researchers have studied their production and perception using methods like discourse completion tasks, role plays, and interviews. Studies have found differences between native and non-native speakers in selecting appropriate speech act strategies and forms.
This document discusses strategies for fostering strategic processing in early readers. It begins by confirming the importance of sound-letter relationships but acknowledges that saying "sound it out" is not always helpful for decoding words. The rest of the document provides guidance on prompting students, selecting texts, building a cueing system, and analyzing errors to effectively teach decoding, fluency, comprehension, and other reading skills. Key recommendations include focusing on meaning, visual information, structure, and self-monitoring rather than looking for quick fixes. The goal is to help students become independent, strategic readers.

President Woodrow Wilson proposed the Fourteen Points in 1918 to establish a just post-war peace and create a League of Nations to maintain it. His plan focused on reducing militarism, promoting self-determination, and upholding territorial integrity. However, at the 1919 Paris Peace Conference, the other Allied powers prioritized punishing Germany over Wilson's ideals. The resulting Treaty of Versailles divided territories without local consent and imposed massive reparations on Germany. Though the League of Nations was founded, Wilson's failure to gain U.S. entry weakened it and contributed to tensions that eventually led to World War II.
Woodrow Wilson was the 28th President of the United States from 1913 to 1921. During World War I, Wilson outlined his 14 Points speech in 1918, which proposed terms for a post-war peace settlement. The 14 Points called for open diplomacy, freedom of the seas, removal of economic barriers, and the establishment of an organization, later known as the League of Nations, to uphold these principles and keep peace between nations. While some of the 14 Points were included in the eventual Treaty of Versailles, opposition from allies and Wilson's inability to get the treaty ratified in the US weakened its impact and allowed Germany to resume imperialism.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

How to Manage Reception Report in Odoo 17Celine George
A business may deal with both sales and purchases occasionally. They buy things from vendors and then sell them to their customers. Such dealings can be confusing at times.
