Sperber and Wilson’s Idea
They believe that communicative activities are cognitive activities. The base for cognition is relevance of utterances.
人类的交际活动是一种认知活动, 认知的基础是交际中话语的关联性。
Sperber and Wilson’s Idea
The greater the relevance, the less inference, therefore, the higher communicative efficiency. 关联性越大,所需的推理性越小,交际的效 率越高。 The lower the relevance, the more inference, therefore, the lower communicative efficiency. 关联性越小,所需的推理性越大,交际的效 率越低。
Leech
’s Politeness Principles
An example: Parent: Someone’s eaten the icing off the cake. Child: It wasn’t ME. 家长没有直接责备孩子,而是用了一个不定代 词 Someone ,仅仅说“有人”吃了蛋糕上 的糖粉,违反了数量准则,目的是为了维护礼 貌原则。
Sperber and Wilson’s Idea

Grice语用学提出了许多重要的理论和观点,对语言学领域产生了深远的影响。
本文将介绍Grice语用学的基本概念,并分析其在语言学领域的重要性。
二、合作原则与准则Grice语用学的核心概念是合作原则,它认为在语言交际中,为了实现有效的沟通,参与者需要遵循一定的原则和准则。
合作原则包括四个准则:质量准则、数量准则、关系准则和方式准则。
这些准则在实际语言中有着广泛的应用,如在会话中,为了保持话题的一致性,说话者会遵循关系准则,使用代词和连词等手段来明确语句之间的关系。
三、会话含义理论Grice语用学的另一个重要理论是会话含义理论。
该理论认为,在会话中,说话者通过语言表达自己的意图,同时也试图理解听话者的意图。
为了实现这一目标,说话者需要遵循会话含义理论的核心思想,即在会话中,说话者要尽量让自己的话语满足一定的语境要求,从而使听话者能够理解其真实意图。
这一理论在实际对话中有着广泛的应用,如在撒谎的情况下,说话者会通过控制自己的话语,使其满足一定的语境要求,从而使听话者能够理解其真实意图。
四、Grice语用学在我国的研究与应用Grice语用学在我国得到了广泛的研究和应用。

• Metalanguage: meta- indicates that the level of the
study has changed, which means the things people talking about changes from object to “the talk” itself. The notion of metalanguage was proposed by Tarski in the first place in the 30s of 20th century, it was used to describe, estimate and observe the object language. Metalinguistics is the study of metalanguage. It studies the relationship between language system and the relevant cultural behavior system. For example, the dictionary is using metalanguage to describe words, and we can use chines to describe English.
metapragmatics
• Metapragmatics is the study of pragmatics and it is base on pragmatics, as Mey said: metapragmatics is the pragmatic study of pragmatics, which can be comprehended as : the theories and principle of pragmatics are the object language of metapragmatics. • Base on saussure’s theory of language’s arbitrariness, Leech suggested that the arbitrariness of language did not necessarily result in the arbitrariness of grammatical rules, in other words, grammatical rules are conventional. But the cause of the rules came from the nonlinguistic thoughts and reality. Leech also holds that although the grammatical rules are conventional, the pragmatical rules are not conventional, they are determined by the aim of the conversation. The grammatical rules can be comprehended in two level: although grammatical rules are arbitrary, they are generally and commonly explained in the metagrammatic level.

III. The theory of implicature
What is the general aim of the theory? In Chomsky’s theory
How does one know whether a sentence is
rule, like Grice’s
But maybe this:
U by uttering x means p iff U has a way of using x to
mean p This sounds like commonsense Wittgenstein: “Don’t ask for the meaning, ask for the use!’ Francis Lin: “Don’t ask for the meaning, ask for how meaning is expressed!’
Finding the ‘essence’ of ‘mean’, in Wittgenstein’s
terminology
But there are always counter examples So, should we keep on revising the definition, hoping to get the final, correct one?

grice关于conversationnal implicature的观点
grice关于conversationnal implicature的观点
格赖斯(Grice)的“会话含义”(conversational implicature)理论是语言哲学和语用学中的一个重要概念。
这个理论强调,在交流过程中,信息的传达往往不只是在字面意义上,而是涉及到对语境、交流者的意图以及文化背景的理解。
格赖斯的“会话含义”理论中,他区分了两种类型的含义:字面含义(literal meaning)和会话含义。
字面含义是指语言中词汇和语句的表面意义,而会话含义则是根据语境、交流者的意图和社会文化背景所理解的含义。
此外,格赖斯的“会话含义”理论提出了四个准则:
1. 数量准则(quantity maxim):提供充分、不过多的信息。
2. 信息准则(information maxim):提供的信息应该是新鲜的、有意义的。
3. 方式准则(manner maxim):表达要清晰、简洁、避免冗余或模糊的信息。
4. 关系准则(relation maxim):对话要与内容相关。
这些准则在解释人们如何理解语言的会话含义时具有重要的指导作用。
在交流过程中,人们会根据这些准则去推断说话者的意图和含义,从而理解整个对话的含义。
请注意,对于格赖斯的“会话含义”理论,存在一些讨论
和批评。
其中之一是关于“会话含义”的本质。
有些学者认为,“会话含义”并不是真正意义上的语义含义,而是基于语境和文化的推断。
而另一些学者则认为,“会话含义”是一种特殊的语言现象,它既包括语境的影响,也包括语言本身的语义特征。
语用学课件整理稿(英文)
语用学课件整理稿(英文)What is pragmatics?Pragmatics is a systematic way of explaining language use in context [Context is generally considered as constituted by the knowledge [knowledge of the language they use, knowledge of what has been said before, knowledge about the world in general, knowledge about the specific situation in which linguistic communication is taking place, and knowledge about each other) shared by the speaker and the hearer.]It seeks to explain aspects of meaning which cannot be found in the plain sense of words or structures, as explained by semantics. As a field of language study, pragmatics is fairly new. Its origins lie in philosophy of language and the American philosophical school of pragmatism. As a discipline within language science, its roots lie in the work of (Herbert) Paul Grice on conversational implicature and the cooperative principle, and on the work of Stephen Levinson, Penelope Brown and Geoff Leech on politeness. Pragmatics is a subdiscipline of linguistics developed from different linguistics, philosophical and sociological traditions that studies the relationship between natural language expressions and their uses in specific situations. The term pragmatics comes from Morris? (1938) general theory of signs: in this semiotic model (semioti cs), pragmatics refers to the relationship of the sign to the sign user. The distinction between pragmatics and semantics, both of which investigate different aspects of linguistic meaning, is even less clear-cut. While semantics is concerned with the literal and contextually non-variable meaning of linguistic expressions or with the contextually non-variable side of the truth conditions of propositions or sentences, pragmatics dealswith the function of linguistic utterances and the propositions that are expressed by them, depending upon their use in specific situations (pragmatics concentrates on those aspects of meaning that cannot be predicated by linguistic knowledge alone and takes into account knowledge about the physical and social world).Distinction between pragmatics and semantics1. same:linguistic studies of meaning2. differenceSemantics is concerned with the literal and contextually non-variable meaning of linguistic expressions or with the contextually non-variable side of the truth conditions of propositions or sentencespragmatics deals with the function of linguistic utterances and the propositions that are expressed by them, depending upon their use in specific situations.Sentence meaning v. utterance meaningIf we take it as a grammatical unit and consider it as a self-contained unit in isolation, then we treat it as a sentence. Sentence means a unit of speech constructed according to language-dependent rules, which is relatively complete and independent in respect to content, grammatical structure, and intonation.If we take it as something a speaker utters in a certain situation with a certain purpose, then we are treating it as an utterance. Utterance means a string of sounds or written symbols produced by a speaker between two pauses. An utterance can consist of a single word or several sentences.Meaning of a sentence is abstract, and de-contextualized.Meaning of an utterance is concrete, and contextualized.Utterance is based on sentence meaning; it is the realization of the abstract meaning of a sentence in a real situation of communication, or simply in a context.Summary●Language meaning can be analyzed at several levels.●Semantics concentrates o n the meaning that comes from linguistic knowledge, whilepragmatics concentrates on those aspects of meaning that cannot be predicted by linguistic knowledge alone and takes into account our knowledge about the physical and social world.●The focus of pragmatics analysis is on the meaning of speakers? utterances rather thanon the meaning of words or sentences.Utterances need not consist of complete sentences. Each utterance is a unique physical event created at a particular point in time for a particular communicative purpose.What does pragmatics mainly include?The lack of a clear consensus appears in the way that no two published accounts list the same categories of pragmatics in quite the same order. But among the things you should know about are:DeixisSpeech actsPresupposition and entailmentCooperation and implicatureRelevancePoliteness principleDeixisDeixis:The way in which the reference of certain elements ina sentence is determined in relation to a specific speaker and addressee and a specific time and place of utterance.Deictic expressions(指示结构)include such lexemes as:Personal or possessive pronouns (所有格代名词)(I/you/mine/yours),Demonstrative pronouns (this/that),(Spatial/temporal) adverbs (here/there/now),Other pro-forms(替代词)(so/do),Personal or possessive adjectives (my/your),Demonstrative adjectives(指示形容词)(this/that) ,Articles (the).Pro-forms:(替代词)forms which can serve as replacements for different elements in a sentence.A: I hope you can come.B: I hope so.A: Mary is in London.B: John is there too.We invited Mary and John to eat with us because we liked them.A: I like coffee.B: We do too.Two kinds of usages of deixisGestural usage(手势型的用法): with the help of gestures, with some physical indication of the referent (e.g. direction of gaze), completely context-dependent.He is not the president. He is. He?s the secretary.Symbolic usage(象征型的用法): with the help of contexts (Gestures are not necessary.We should know the time, space, participants, etc. The communicators are not necessarily present.)This city is highly congested.Non-deictic usages of deixisEndophoric reference(文内照应): the entity(实体)the deixis refers to exists in the sentence/ passage, the purpose of the use of deixis is for cohesion(粘连). Mostly third person (single, plural) is used for endophoric reference.e.g.: Peter studies Japanese. He wishes to go to Japan some day.We were led into a big room. Here, it was said, Ford produced his first car.Exophoric reference(文外照应): the entity the deixis refers to does not exist, and the referential meaning can be judged from the context. Mostly first and second person (single, plural) is used for exophoric reference.e.g.: He?s not the president. He is. He?s the secretary.You can come with me if you like.Some deixis belongs neither to endophoric reference nor to exophoric reference, it doesn?t exist in a context or discourse(文篇), for example “we”, “you” which do not refer to specific persons; “here”, “there” used in some set expressions, e.g. “Here we are”,”There wego”.gestural usageexophoric referenceDeixis symbolic usageendophoric reference: cohensionCategories of Deixis2.3.1 Person DeixisDeixis depending on the identity of speakers, addressees, and others.1) The basic grammatical distinctions are the categories of first, second and third person ——speaker inclusion, addressee inclusion, speaker and addressee inclusion. [Some pronominal systems exhibit as many as fifteen basic pronouns (ignoring honorific alternates) by superimposing distinctions based on plurality, gender and so on.]2) The first and second person pronouns are usually used in exophoric reference; the third person pronouns (single and plural) are usually used in endophoric reference.e.g. You can come with me if you like.You can never tell what sex some teenagers are nowadays.John came in and he lit a fire.3) Third is quite unlike first and second person, in that it does not correspond to any specific participant-role in the speech event.4)Vocatives(呼语)can be divided into calls, or summonses(呼唤语)and addresses (称呼语). The distinction is precisely that between gestural and symbolic usages.Summonses are naturally untterance-initial, addresses are parenthetical and can occur in the sorts of locations that parentheticals can occupy.E.g Hey you, you just scratched my car with your Frisbee. (calls)The truth is, Madam, nothing is as good as nowadays. (addresses)4) It is common in many languages for mother to say to father, in the presence of little Billiesomething like “Can Billie have an ice-cream, Daddy?” taking the view, for the purpose of vocative selection, of the audience. These distinctions make it important that we do notconfuse the categories of addressee and hearer.5) In many languages, there are two first person “plural” pronouns corresponding to“we-inclusive-of addressee” (包括谈话对方)and “we-exclusive-of addressee”. (不包括谈话对方)E.g. Let us know the time of your arrival. (exclude the addressee)Let?s go to the cinema. (include the addre ssee)您安心养病吧!我们过几天再来看您。

Types of Q-implicature

<succeed,try˃ In 1888,Van Gogh tried to set up an artist's studio at Arles. +˃In 1888,Van Gogh did not succeed in setting up an artist's studio at Arles. <boil,grill,stir-fry˃ Stir-fry the bean sprouts,please. +˃please,don't,for example,boil the bean spouts as well. (Yan Huang2009:44)
In Sperber and Wilson's approach and that of Horn's,it is exactly adopted what grice had anticipated--to use the principle of revelance to subsume the second maxim of Quantity.Now Levinson believes that is mistaken.In his view, maxims of Quantity have to do with the quantity of information,while the maxim of Relation is “a measure of timely helpfulness with respect to interactional goals”(p.401).and “is largely about the satisfaction of others' goals in interaction,and the satisfaction of topical and sequencing constraints in discourse,as in the expection that answer will follow a question”(Levinson 1989:467).It is not,at least not primarily,about information.So he renames the second maxim of Quantity the Principle of Informativeness,I-principle for short;and the first maxim of Quantity the Principle of Quantity,or Q-principle.

语用学是研究语言在实际使用中的现象和规律的学科。
在语用学领域,格赖斯(Grice) 的理论贡献不可忽视。
他提出了著名的合作原则,对语用学的发展产生了深远影响。
格赖斯的合作原则包括四个准则,分别是:质量准则、数量准则、关系准则和方式准则。
这些准则指导着我们在交际过程中如何有效地传递和理解信息。
质量准则是要求说话者尽可能提供真实、准确、完整的信息。
数量准则要求说话者提供的信息量应该恰好满足听话者的需求,既不要过多也不要过少。
关系准则要求说话者提供的信息要与上下文相关,有助于听话者理解。
方式准则则要求说话者以清晰、简洁、有序的方式传递信息。
在合作原则的基础上,格赖斯提出了会话含义理论。
该理论认为,在会话中,说话者通过遵守合作原则传递交际意图,而听话者则通过最佳解释原则来理解说话者的意图。
最佳解释原则是指,在所有可能的解释中,听话者应选择最符合合作原则的那一个。
在实际应用中,格赖斯的理论对语言学领域产生了深远的影响,为语用学的研究提供了有力的理论支持。
此外,在人工智能和自然语言处理领域,格赖斯的理论也发挥着重要作用,为计算机理解和生成自然语言提供了理论依据。

grice语用学摘要:1.Grice 语用学的概念与背景2.Grice 的三个基本原则3.Grice 语用学的贡献与影响正文:1.Grice 语用学的概念与背景Grice 语用学是由英国哲学家Paul Grice 在20 世纪60 年代提出的一种语用学理论。
语用学是研究语言在交际中如何发挥作用的学科,与语义学关注语言的意义不同,语用学关注的是语言的运用。
Grice 语用学是语用学领域中最有影响力的理论之一,它对理解语言在交际中的功能具有重要意义。
2.Grice 的三个基本原则Grice 提出了三个基本原则,分别是质量原则(Quality)、数量原则(Quantity)和关系原则(Relation)。
(1)质量原则:指说话者应尽可能地说出真实的事情。
也就是说,说话者不应故意地说出他们认为是假的事情。
(2)数量原则:指说话者应尽可能地说出足够的信息,以便听众能够理解他们所表达的意思。
也就是说,说话者不应提供过多的信息,也不应提供过少的信息。
(3)关系原则:指说话者应尽可能地使他们的话语与语境保持一致。
也就是说,说话者应根据语境选择合适的表达方式,以便听众能够更好地理解他们的意思。
3.Grice 语用学的贡献与影响Grice 语用学对语言学和交际学的研究产生了深远的影响。
一方面,它使我们认识到语言不仅仅是传递信息的工具,还是实现交际目的的手段。
另一方面,Grice 语用学为我们提供了一种理解和解释语言在交际中发挥作用的方法。
此外,Grice 语用学的基本原则也被广泛应用于人工智能、对话系统等领域,以提高机器在交际中的表现。
总之,Grice 语用学为我们理解语言在交际中的功能提供了有力的理论支持。

语用学是研究语言在交际中使用的学科,它关注的是语言背后的意图、目的和交际功能。
Grice 语用学理论主要围绕合作原则和会话含义展开,为我们理解和解释语言在交际中的使用提供了有力的理论支撑。
【Grice 的语用学理论核心:合作原则和会话含义】Grice 认为,在交际过程中,为了保证有效沟通,交际双方需要遵循一定的原则。
这些原则被称为合作原则,包括质量、数量、关联和方式四个子原则。
质量原则要求说话者要真实地表达自己的信念,避免故意误导听者;数量原则要求说话者提供的信息要足够,既不过多也不过少;关联原则要求说话者的表达要贴切,与上下文相关;方式原则要求说话者要清晰明了地表达自己的观点,避免歧义。
会话含义是指在特定语境下,说话者通过话语所表达的实际意图或传达的信息。
在交际过程中,理解会话含义需要听者根据合作原则去推理和判断。
【合作原则的四个子原则】质量原则是合作原则中最基本的原则,要求说话者要真实地表达自己的信念。
数量原则要求说话者提供的信息要足够,既不过多也不过少。
关联原则要求说话者的表达要贴切,与上下文相关。
方式原则要求说话者要清晰明了地表达自己的观点,避免歧义。
【会话含义的理解与推理】在交际过程中,理解会话含义需要听者根据合作原则去推理和判断。
例如,当说话者故意违反质量原则时,听者可以根据其他原则推断出其真实意图。
这种推理过程可以帮助我们更好地理解话语背后的含义和意图。
【Grice 语用学的应用领域】Grice 语用学理论在许多领域都有广泛的应用,如语言学、心理学、哲学、社会学、人工智能等。

• 交际目的 • 交际目的是各种各样的。或是陈明一种心理, 希望对方明知;或是提出一种问题,希望能 够得到解答;或是表达一种请求,希望对方 照办;或是抒发一种感情,希望引起共鸣。 不同的交际目的制约着人们的交际行为。
• 交际过程
– 改变语音形式, “一”作 “幺”;“0‖作 “洞”。 – 重复话语:如电影《英雄儿女》中:“我是王 成,我是王成!为了祖国,为了人民,请向我 开炮!” – 增加羡余成分:我明天早上,早上九点到!请 到机场接我! – 放慢语速,加大音量。
• 交际对象 • 言语交际离不开交际对象。交际对象是具有各种个 性特征的。如性别、年龄、身份、地位、生活环境、 职业经历、思想性格、修养爱好、文化水平、社会 心理、处境心情等。这些个性特征都会不同程度地 制约着言语交际。 • 交际对象涉及双方的关系亲疏、地位高低、辈分尊 卑、年龄长幼等因素。一般说来,交际双方关系越 密切,地位、年龄、辈分相当,所需的礼貌成度就 越低;双方关系越疏远,越陌生,双方地位、辈分、 年龄相差越大,越要客气。“礼貌的其中一个功能 便是创造交际双方之间的社会距离。”
• 意义:提醒、催促、或是对听话人不守时间的批评。若考虑 到双方的关系:上下级关系,师生关系,父母子女之间、恋 人之间等,则可以理解的意思还多些。 • 一个人老想着出国,老对别人讲要办好手续了,但老也没见 他出国,有人就说,“你怎么还没走?” • 意义:关心、调侃或嘲讽。 • 下班时间早过了,某人还在办公室里忙乎,值班人员过来锁 门,说:“你怎么还没走?” • 意义:值班人员可能是出于爱护,也可能是出于生气,还可 能是某种猜测(是不是有什么不能在办公时间处理的不可告 人的什么事情,是不是在等什么人的电话,等等。) • 一个普通老百姓来到某个部门办事,被某个态度不好的工作 人员拒之门外,过了半天,那个工作人员看见老百姓还在门 口,于是说:“你怎么还不走?” • 意义:可以比较肯定地认为,这是一种不太友好的态度,是 让对方赶快走开的意思。

B: Mike has two pencils and perhaps two or more. (By adding “perhaps two or more”, the implicature disappears)
假设大家都知道John is an idiot.,但偏要嘲笑说John is a genius,即使不说这句话,改说下面任何一种同义结构:
()John is a mental prodigy. () John is an exceptionally clever human being. () John is an enormous intellect. () John is a big brain.
B: It is raining.
Semantic and literal meaning: his answer unrelated to the
question.
B’s implicature: the football match will be canceled as the
ground is wet and slippery after the rain.
预设分类(依据预设内容)
存在预设:用于陈述某人某事有一定性质的话语。 一般都预设讨论对象的存在。
话语的字面意义或语义组合。 听话人:根据相关语境因素进行推理,获取字面意
义以外的交际信息
在言语交际中,类似的字面意义或语义意义以外的隐含 信息就是我们要讨论的会话中的含义,即会话含义。
