The changes 1982-2006This article presents the results of a study carried out with Spanish Universitystudents on their use of strategies of (in)directness when expressing complaints,disapprovals and disagreements in English and Spanish. We adopt a role-playeliciting procedure for the collection of what a speaker thinks and what s/heactually says in a given situation. Our results show a tendency to mitigate theactual words uttered with regard to the thought processes in both languages.However, while in English students show a preference for conventional indirectness,in Spanish there is a greater variation in the stPragmatics & beyond new series ;Volume 247.Discourse analysisPragmaticsFunctionalism (Linguistics)Discourse analysis.Pragmatics.Functionalism (Linguistics)401/.41Gómez González María de los ÁngelesMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910790910303321The functional perspective on language and discourse3748735UNINA
