In this paper the job of the criterions of address will be discussed. Besides such inquiries as the linguistic communication and society, etiqette of address, oratory, indirect address Acts of the Apostless, rules of communicating will be examined.
Ability to do best usage of communicative maps of linguistic communication signifiers what is called the criterions of address. Language criterions qualify the grade to which people speak the linguistic communication and are able to recognize its expressive possibilities in order to present a address signifier that corresponds to its content and aims.
In the address criterions there are two chief factors:
1 ) conformity with by and large accepted lingual norms ;
2 ) characteristics of single manner of address.
Standard address must be ‘correct ‘ , ‘grammatical ‘ , ‘literary ‘ . However, in existent life conversation does non ever match to these factors. There are assorted signifiers of divergence from the ‘correct ‘ address, such as the popular linguistic communication, slang, etc. If following the norms of literary linguistic communication ensures the rightness of address, the betterment of single manner leads to verbal accomplishments, the development of art address. The high criterion of address includes non merely its truth, but the ability to take the most effectual, most appropriate for this state of affairs lingual agencies.
In the class of his development, a individual more and more wholly masters the linguistic communication and the criterions of communicating. A individual in society tends to get attitudes, positions and wonts of the people with whom he is interested in pass oning. He tends to ‘sample ‘ prevailing in the heads of native talkers, seeking to move harmonizing to the regulations of communicative functions of the talker and hearer. He is seeking to get unwritten and written signifiers of communicating as it is done by native talkers. The talker tries to follow with ‘general line ‘ of verbal behaviour. The recognized norms and conventions of public life most straight affect the nature of verbal behaviour. In any society, certain address Acts of the Apostless are allowed, others – are non allowed. But in any instance, the talker is seeking non to pique the other individual, non to degrade him, but instead, to show his regard and show kindness. That is, the communicants should show intercultural competency, which can be understood as the integrating of address Acts of the Apostless and extralinguistic cognition, and that includes linguistic communication and – progressively – communicative competency, cognition of foreign civilization.
Under the criterions of address the entirety of such qualities that have the best impact on the receiver, taking into history the specific state of affairs and in conformity with the undertaking is understood. These qualities include: substance, consistence, grounds, the lucidity and comprehensibility, credibleness, lucidity of address.
Harmonizing to Krahn and Reimer ( 1989 ) it should be noted that linguistic communication criterion is a comparatively immature subdivision of linguistics. As an independent subdivision of this scientific discipline, it took form under the influence of extremist societal alterations that have occurred. Familiarization of the multitudes with the active society spacial activities requires greater attending to the betterment of their unwritten criterions.
What is the content of subdivision of the scientific discipline about linguistic communication, which is called the “ Standard of Speech ” ? In it, as in “ Stylistics ” , we study the address, but merely from a different point of position. Stylistics answers the inquiries: What sre the manners of address? How do they differ from each other? What linguistic communication characteristics are characteristic for each manner? But in the same manner, people make different statements on quality, some of them will be successful, others will be less successful, others – wholly failed. Speech criterions occupy with the quality rating of address. Like a subdivision of linguistics it considers the undermentioned inquiries: How a adult male uses address for communicating? What is his address: correct or icorrect? How to better it?
In modern linguistics, there are two degrees of human address criterions – the lowest and the highest. For the lowest degree, for the first measure of get the hanging the literary linguistic communication, right address, regard for the literary linguistic communication are plenty. There exist such norms as lexical, articulating ( phonic ) , grammatical, word-forming, morphological, syntactical. Lexical regulations are fixed in lexicons as an reading of the significance of words and their compatibility with other words, the staying regulations are disclosed in manuals of grammar, literary linguistic communication, particular lexicons, mention books.
Blum-Kulka ( 1989 ) said that if a individual does non acknowledge errors in the pronunciation, in utilizing of signifiers of the words, in their formation and sentence construction, his address is called correct. However, this is non plenty. It may be right but bad, that is, non to consistent with the aims and conditions of communicating. The construct of good address includes at least three marks: the wealth, the truth and the expressiveness. The indexs of the rich address are the big volume of vocabulary, assortment of the employed morphological signifiers and syntactic buildings. The truth of address is the pick of such linguistic communication means that express the content of statements, unwrap the topic and the chief idea in the best manner.
As it was mentioned by Young, Becker & A ; Pike ( 1970 ) , expressiveness is created by agencies of choice of lingual resources appropriate in the best manner to conditions and undertakings of communicating. If a individual has a right and good address, he reaches the highest degree of address criterions. This means that he does non merely admit errors, but besides knows how to construct statements int the best manner in conformity with the intent of communicating, select the most suited in each instance words and buildings, taking into history, to whom and under what fortunes he refers to.
The high degree of the address criterion is an unalienable characteristic of a civilized individual. Tuckerman ( 1995 ) said that to better the address is a undertaking for each of us. To make this it is needed to follow the address to avoid mistakes in pronunciation, in the signifiers of the words used, in building the sentences. It is necessary to invariably enrich the lexicon, to larn to experience the comrade, to be able to choose the most suited for each instance words and buildings.
The job of “ Language and Society ” is wide and multifaceted. First of all, linguistic communication is societal in nature. Its chief map is to be a agency, a tool of human communicating. On the footing of this map, and in connexion with it another linguistic communication maps are realized – the map of the impact, of the messages, of formation and look of idea. These maps are besides societal.
It is possible to state that society has such linguistic communication, which is created by the society, and it uses the linguistic communication as it can and could. The influence of the linguistic communication on the society is enhanced with the development of the society itself – this consequence increases with the development of production, engineering, scientific discipline, civilization and the province. The linguistic communication participates in the organisation of labour, in the direction of societal production, of the activities of bureaus, in the execution of the educational procedure and preparation of members of the society, in the development of literature and scientific discipline.
Society affects the linguistic communication, but the linguistic communication, in its bend, affects the society, take parting in different countries of life and human activities.
Our society that has non still mostly come to the inn regulations, already felt the demand for the civilization of behaviour and communicating. Every now and so there are proclamations, communications, advertizements about the fact that in high schools, colleges, schools the electives with the names “ Etiquette, ” “ Business Etiquette ” , “ Diplomatic etiquette ” , “ Etiquette of concern communicating ” , etc are opened. It is connected with the demand of people to larn how to act in a peculiar state of affairs, how to properly install and keep the address, and through it the concern, friendly, etc. contact.
The broad definition of civilization needfully includes what is called a civilization of communicating, civilization of verbal behaviour. To possess it, it is of import to understand the kernel of the address etiquette.
In communicating people pass each other one manner or other information, one or another sense, state something, promote to something, inquire about something, execute certain speech Acts of the Apostless. However, before continuing to the exchange of logical and meaningful information, it is necessary to come in into verbal contact, but it is done harmonizing to certain regulations. We do non about detect them because they are accustomed. Noteworthy is merely the misdemeanor of unwritten regulations, like: the familiarity did non recognize at the meeting, person was non thanked for the service, was non apologized for the error. Typically, such non-fulfilment of the norms of behaviour bends into bitterness, and sometimes dispute, the struggle in the squad. It is hence of import to pay attending to the regulations of entry into the address contact, care of such contact – because the concern relationships are non possible without this. It is clear that understanding of the regulations of communicating and verbal behaviour is utile for all, particularly for people of those professions that are associated with address. These are instructors, physicians and attorneies, service workers and business communities, and merely the parents.
Berlo ( 1960 ) demonstrated that the regulations of verbal behaviour are regulated by the address etiquette, by the system, predominating in linguistic communication and address, of fixed looks used in state of affairss of set uping and keeping contact. These are state of affairss of intervention, salutations, farewells, apologies, thanks, praises, wants, understanding and commiserations, blessing and regards, invitations, suggestions, petitions for the advice and many others. The address etiquette embraces everything that is friendly to the other party, that can make good and pleasant clime of communicating. Rich set of linguistic communication characteristics allows you to take the pertinent for the address state of affairs and a favourable for the middleman signifier of communicating, set up a friendly, relaxed, or on the reverse, an official tone of conversation.
It is of import to stress that in the address etiquette the societal information is transmitted to the talker and his addressee, if they are familiar or non, about the relationship of equality / inequality by age, business, their personal relationships ( if they are familiar ) , approximately in what environment ( formal or informal ) the communicating takes topographic point, etc.
Of class, it is necessary to analyze the address etiquette in the survey of foreign linguistic communications, but one must besides cognize his ain etiquette, and it needs to be tought from the early childhood, in the household, kindergarten, school, and in high school, already professionally pointing a individual in conformity with what address state of affairss will be the most typical in the workplace of the individual.
Oratory is an art of a practical verbal effects, giving us the chance to utilize skilfully the word as a tool of idea and persuasion. The field for the rhetorical activity is huge: how to form the address for the instructors? How to do a declaration of love? how to talk in parliament? On these and many other inquiries the scientific discipline forgotten in the state and in demand of rehabilitation – rhetoric, should reply. For many centuries it was the norm of civilization, one of the classical human-centered subjects, analyzing the individual moving with address and urging the regulations of clever, expedient and persuasive address.
What was the drift for the resurgence of rhetoric and stepped the attending to it? It should be noted that today the named points have become popular in many colleges and universities. Miller ( 2001 ) admitted that the fact is that in recent decennaries the communicational, and consequently, the linguistic communication state of affairs in society has dramatically changed. There are new ways of hive awaying and treating verbal information, where the auditory and audiovisual beginnings of address became to rule ( wireless, telecasting, telephone ) , i.e. , the address in its perfectly new fluctuations. The ocular beginnings of address acquired new qualities, greatly spread outing and enriching the situational-thematical countries of the application of written address ( eg, composing operation in a computing machine ) . And if until recent times the jobs of the formation of linguistic communication accomplishments were relevant, as a regulation, for the professions associated with the alleged humanistic disciplines, and for learning a foreign linguistic communication, now about in forepart of the full system of instruction the undertaking of developing of accomplishments and abilities of the unwritten tradition is faced.
Today, it is of import non merely to be able to build the unwritten statement, convincingly supporting the ain place ( of class, with the regard to the regulations of the address communicating ) , but besides to be able to understand another ‘s address and adequately respond at it.
And if at the contact communicating the hearer may modulate the rate of the new information, reasking the middleman ( lector ) , inquiring him to talk more easy, to notice on some statements that are non really clear, at a distant perceptual experience of the address ( wireless, telecasting ) this is non possible. Conley ( 1990 ) stated that the hearer is forced to comprehend it at a velocity, lingual design and volume that do non take into history his single capacity.
In connexion with this we should remember that the ancient rhetoric, focused chiefly on legal and parade addresss, was redeveloped in the Middle Ages, based chiefly on the composing of letters and discourses, and in the Renaissance and Classicism it was applicable with regard to any art prose.
Unfortunately, the modern rhetoric by its content and methods used – remains at about the same degree as that of a century ago. It does non take into history, foremost, the new challenges and historical worlds, and secondly, the consequences of research in related subjects such as informations of linguodidactics about the temporal features of address and the optimum continuance of the sound of texts in different state of affairss and with different beginnings of information, the informations of linguistics about the particulars of the lexical gramatical design of thoughts in different state of affairss of communicating. But the similar information obtained as a consequence of scientific research probes, has been successfully used by the experts in the field of acquisition of linguistic communications.
More and more frequently in mundane life we meet the indirect signifiers of verbal interaction that are possible in the presence of the general rules of regard for the middleman, avoiding all kinds of intervention in communicating. In other words, it is necessary to follow with the rules of cooperation. This rule is the basic rule of communicating.
Accoeding to Grice ( 1975 ) we see that the more concrete thought about the kernel of the rules of cooperation is given by the classs of measure, quality, attitude and manner.
At this the class of measure is expressed by the fact that at this phase of the duologue the vocalization must non incorporate more or less information than it is required. The class of the quality is expressed in the truth of the vocalization. The class of dealingss is characterized by the fact that we should lodge to the subject of conversation. The class of manner is reflected in the lucidity of look. In order to accomplish the lucidity of look, the talker should endeavor to follow with several private posits, such as to avoid vague looks, ambiguity, he should seek to be concise and organized.
While esteeming the rule of cooperation the communicating is the most effectual. Monitoring the conformity with these posits in the procedure of communicating may be carried out non merely by the middleman, but besides by the talker himself.
Another of import rule that governs the communicating procedure is the rule of niceness. The rule of niceness is an built-in portion of the communicative codification. This rule aims at forestalling struggles. Principle of niceness is concretized by six axioms: tact, generousness, blessing, humbleness, harmoniousness and understanding. The rule of cooperation is directed towards the encyclopaedic images of the universe and the rule of niceness is directed toward the construct of frames.
To do a decision we should ay that linguistic communication and address are non something frozen and unchangeable. They is in ageless gesture, because a assortment of assorted factors both external, they are called, ekstralinguistic and internal – lingual is invariably act uponing on the speech production people.
Language is an indispensable agencies of apprehension of people. And if linguistic communication did non keep its integrity, it would non be able to execute this critical map.
Such is the marvelous power of the word. It is peculiarly of import and valid in complex communicating state of affairss. The word may be the strongest arm, non merely in the custodies of the unscrupulous, self-seeking rabble-rousers. It can be even more powerful arm in the custodies of the activists. And although they use it, but they are non ever cognizant of the power of words – as destructive and originative.
They do non ever know, particularly in hard communicating conditions, how it is possible to neutralize, to expose the false and malicious “ antiword ” and how to give the true power of the word. And even cognizing it they do non ever happen the bravery, duty and doggedness necessary for work outing such jobs. And even happening it they do non ever present the art of the subtle and effectual address.
So in our work we have discussed the job of the criterions of address, examined the inquiries of the linguistic communication and society, defined the function of the address etiquette, remembered the function of such scientific discipline as rhetoric and learned about the chief rules of the communicating.
