| Abstract | ||
| The importance of 'silence' in language is taken from its importance in the universe. This is due to the fact that the universe is built on the relationship between movement and stillness and language is built on the relation between silence and speech. In language, silence is not merely the absence of speech but it is a main element as speech in the linguistic communication. The present research aims at: 1.Examining the theoretical views adopted by linguists, philosophers and researchers concerning: a. Definitions, types and related forms of the speech act of 'silence'. b. Phonological, phonetic, semantic, syntactic and pragmatic structures of 'silence'. 2.Arriving at different and to some extent new theoretical views from those presented for discussion especially those concerned with pragmatic structures of 'silence'. | ||
