| Abstract | ||
| Speech act theory is a comprehensive theory of linguistic communication.

The fundamentals of this theory, as Stelmann (1982:279) puts them, are as follows: Linguistic communication is more than merely saying something; it is saying something in a certain context, with certain intentions, and with the listener’s recognition of what is said and of these intentions. | ||
