一、术语解释一、术语解释1.LocutionaryAct,IllocutinaryActandPerlocutionaryAct(5points)北京交通大学2005研,武汉大学2005研【答案】AccordingtoAustin,aspeakermightbeperformingthreeactssimultaneouslywhenspeaking.Alocutionary act is the uttering of words,phrases,and clauses,which conveys meaning by giving outmeaningful sounds.An illocutionary act is the act of expressing the speakers intention;it is the actperformed insayingsomething.Therefore,whensomebodysays“Morning”,wecanaskaquestionlike“Whatdidhedo?”,andtheanswercouldbe“Heofferedagreeting.”Aperlocutionaryactistheeffectoftheutterance.Thus,bysaying“Morning!”thespeakerhasmadeitclearthathewantstokeepfriendlyrelationswiththehearer.Whenthetwospeakersareonnormalterms,theeffectmaybenegligible.Butiftherewereanytensions
