    Adjacency pair → Speech act

    Meaning of the relation type
    Beide Begriffe gehören demselben fachlichen Kontinent an. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    An adjacency pair links conversational actions such as asking and answering a question. A speech act is the action performed by an utterance. The pair shows how one action makes a particular kind of response relevant.

    Meaning of the relation type
    Beide Begriffe gehören demselben fachlichen Kontinent an. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Requests and refusals can affect how participants are treated or recognised. Facework examines how they manage those interpersonal concerns, alongside the analysis of what the speech act does.

    Meaning of the relation type
    Beide Begriffe gehören demselben fachlichen Kontinent an. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    A speech act can convey additional messages beyond what it explicitly says. Implicature explains how those messages are inferred in context. That inference is distinct from identifying the action performed by the utterance.

    Meaning of the relation type
    Beide Begriffe gehören demselben fachlichen Kontinent an. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    A modal expression can help shape a speech act such as a request. The form contributes to how the request is made, while the action also depends on the circumstances of its use.

    Ein Atlasprofil grenzt den Zielbegriff ausdrücklich ab. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    A speech act is an action performed through an utterance. Performativity also asks how such actions help bring social realities into being under particular conditions.

    Meaning of the relation type
    Beide Begriffe gehören demselben fachlichen Kontinent an. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Perlocution concerns what an utterance brings about for participants. Speech act analysis distinguishes such effects from the action performed in uttering it.

    Meaning of the relation type
    Beide Begriffe gehören demselben fachlichen Kontinent an. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    In a sequence, silence can be understood as a response, a refusal or another action. Whether it functions as such requires evidence from the interaction.

    Speech acts acquire their functions within organised practices. The idea of a language game brings that wider setting into view.

    Speech act → Performativity

    Meaning of the relation type
    Die Verbindung überschreitet einen fachlichen Kontinent. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Speech-act analysis asks what people do in saying something. In one account of performativity, words can accomplish socially recognised acts when the conditions for those acts are met. The success of the act and its effect on a listener are separate questions.

    Meaning of the relation type
    Beide Begriffe gehören demselben fachlichen Kontinent an. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Perlocution concerns the possible effects of a speech act on its participants. Giving a warning is distinct from whether the warning actually worries or persuades anyone.

    Speech acts draw on and can change common ground. Asserting and asking, for example, can alter the assumptions participants treat as available for the exchange.

    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Conventions can help participants recognise a speech act and judge whether it takes effect. Its success also depends on the participants’ roles and the circumstances of the utterance.
