dc.description.abstract | We usually know for certain with what we mean when we
describe someone’s behavior as polite. Our usual way of describing it
is by giving examples of behavior, which we consider polite. For
example, people behave politely when they show respect towards
their superiors; they are always helpful; they speak really well or they
use polite language etc. In English, polite language may be
characterized by the use of indirect speech, the use of respectful
forms of address systems like, Sir, Madam, or the use of formulaic
utterances like, please, excuse me, sorry, thank you, etc.
Linguistic politeness has occupied a central place in the social
study of language; even it has been the subject of intensive debate in
sociolinguistics and pragmatics. A lot of linguistic scholars have
carried out studies on linguistic politeness in a wide range of cultures.
As a result, several theories have been proposed on linguistic
politeness and have been established as scholarly concept. | en_US |
