The study discusses how and why elastic language is used in persuasion and comforting. The comparisons made throughout the book between Chinese and English highlight the important role elastic language plays in effective interactions and strategic communication. The insights and resources provided in this book are expected to advance our knowledge in the fields of contrastive pragmatics and cross-cultural communication. The study emphasises the need to give the elastic use of language the attention it deserves, and reveals how language is non-discrete and strategically stretchable. This book will be of interest to academics and postgraduate students engaged in elastic/vague language studies, cross-cultural pragmatics, media linguistics, discourse analysis, sociolinguistics and communication studies. It will also be useful for educationalists involved in language teaching, cross-cultural education and professional communication training, as well as those who have a general interest in language and communication. 606 $aMotion pictures 606 $aTelevision broadcasting 606 $aLinguistics$xMethodology 606 $aPragmatics 606 $aComparative linguistics 606 $aAsia$xLanguages 606 $aCulture 606 $aAustralasia 606 $aFilm and Television Studies 606 $aResearch Methods in Language and Linguistics 606 $aPragmatics 606 $aComparative Linguistics 606 $aAsian Languages 606 $aAustralasian Culture 615 0$aMotion pictures. 615 0$aTelevision broadcasting. 615 0$aLinguistics$xMethodology. 615 0$aPragmatics. 615 0$aComparative linguistics. 615 0$aAsia$xLanguages. 615 0$aCulture. 615 0$aAustralasia. 615 14$aFilm and Television Studies. 615 24$aResearch Methods in Language and Linguistics. 615 24$aPragmatics. 615 24$aComparative Linguistics. 615 24$aAsian Languages. 615 24$aAustralasian Culture. 676 $a791.4 676 $a401.41 700 $aZhang$b Grace$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01228261 702 $aParvaresh$b Vahid$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910484914303321 996 $aElastic Language in Persuasion and Comforting$92851470 997 $aUNINA
